It's really hard to think of myself as a good writer when Kat is so much better.

I like to say I am above average. Campbell praises my use of imagery - says it's solid and vivid. But I know I can do better. I feel like I have potential, but not the talent just yet.

Like America's Next Top Model.

There is potential, so I'm not to be dispatched yet - but - there is someone with natural talent and beauty.

In fact, Kat has always been better than me at most everything she's tried. She's has a natural talent for living, making friends, writing, drawing, fashion, dancing. Our only difference is motivation. While I force myself to work at something in order to develop any talent in it, to her, it comes as easily as breathing.

While this seems to sound like jealousy, I assure you...it is. But not of a malicious sort. I envy Kat - I envy her talents. I wish that things just worked out when I give them my all.

But I'll accept my photo, and I'll keep striving to better my writing.
