Ken 😭

And this is the story of my whole life ever.

but I do have a comforting motto which my niece taught me and it goes...

'Oh Well.'

11.57: Upload the file

11.58: tick all the boxes add all the info...

11.59.55: hit SUBMIT!

Almost pass out with relief.

Snatch defeat from the jaws of victory as I realise there's a further question I could 'skip' but...

I DIDN'T HIT SKIP UNTIL 12.01 pm

A full minute late.

back to the deadline story...

my adrenaline is spiking, I'm riding that wave, it's 11.42 and script is fucking one page short so I add a cunning epilogue.

At 11.55 I go to submit to the online portal only to find I needed to have previously made an account.

Make the account.

And friends, believe me when I say, I actually do believe in myself... believe it or not - if I didn't, would I ever try anything?

No. I wouldn't and I try all manner of things all the damn time.

And because of that, until I'm told otherwise... I'm a winner baby! In all the things.

However...

Anyway - obviously I'm pulling an all-nighter last night berating myself for being an idiot, still thinking I had a chance though.

I felt like my script was good.

I love my MC - I LOVE HER. I wish I was her. She would not have done what I did.

Despite everything, I'm a true optimist...

A reminder every single day for one whole month.

So guess who played chicken with that deadline?

This little ADHD dopamining adrenaline junkie right here.

I had flu for 2 weeks tbf but let's be honest... it still would have happened...

Still, on brand innit

Literally cocks everywhere
