Academic Team Update - 4/13/10

The Academic Team meeting at lunch today was truly dreadful, so this entry will be brief. While we were working on the Knowledge Master questions as a last day of preparation before our competition on Thursday, I felt absolutely useless. I answered very few questions correctly, even messing up geography trivia. This was embarrassing to me, but to be honest I felt terrible. Personal issues have been affecting me recently and they have been difficult to simply forget. I see this meeting as an anomaly when compared to my performances in other days at Academic Team. I certainly hope that my poor efforts today were something ephemeral. It has caused me to consider the implications of my lethargy; if I am exhausted and miserable, how will that help my team succeed in the competition on Thursday? I realized that even though I might be experiencing some unfavorable things, I really need to focus when my strength is needed. I hope that my team forgives me for my disastrous exhibition today, and I hope that I can regain my energy and confidence for the impending Knowledge Master Open.
