Like so many days lately, I waiver from (1) being proud of myself and excited for all the opportunities and change coming in the next few months for me to (2) being insecure, without self-confidence, and completely strung-out with anxiety over the fact that no realm of my life is settled. It changes hourly, if not more often. Today was mainly a day of the latter. And here I sit, on Friday evening, writing yet another cover letter. I wanted to sum-up the letter with some descriptive adjectives about myself. I wrote "self-starter", but (again, the lack of confidence) decided I should look it up on thesaurus.com just in case that wasn't the word I meant. The result:
| Main Entry: | eager beaver |
| Part of Speech: | noun |
| Definition: | industrious person |
| Synonyms: | active person, aholic, ambitious person, ball of fire, beaver, busy bee, busy bee, busy person, doer, dynamo, fireball, go-getter, hot shot, live wire, live wire, no slouch, pistol, self-starter , sharpy, spark plug, workhorse |

You know what, darn it, that
is me.
