Damn it I'm scared. But not as scared as I would've been had I planned this in advance. Basically I'm looking for a job because I've sort of put college on the backburner for a while. I just want some money so I can confidently get out of here and hopefully change my life around a bit. I sent out impersonal applications for delivery drivers but the industry is packed. As I was going about my day today I remembered that I was interested in doing some bike shop mechanic work so I googled for jobs and lo and behold, my local shop is hiring a novice mechanic. It's not my specialty but I have some knowledge about it and I like tinkering on bikes.

So I just wrote an email thinking this is my only chance. I'm so scared. I'm scared it's too informal, or too philosophical for a mechanic job, or too idk what but something is definitely not right about it. It can't be, I wrote it in less than a day. That's the voice in my head telling me I've just made a terrible mistake. But I did it anyway... I don't have much to lose now, have I? I wish my brain were kinder to me but it's not so I just gotta deal with it. I know if they ask me for an interview or simply accept me right away I'll be far more scared than I'm now. So... Yay?
