My last seven days have been an emotional roller coaster.
Mostly because of the Naef Competition.
I really thought that I had a chance to be a "finalist",
but with big hope comes big disappointment.
I'll admit that I don't handle losing very well, especially when I've put in my best effort.
The best word to describe my feelings yesterday is devastated,
but that was yesterday. Time helps me forget.
I'm really happy for those that won, and I know the effort everyone put into their own projects.
It's not like I worked harder than everyone and was ignored.
Their designs simply excelled mine, and that's okay.
I'm still learning, and I won't be able to win everything.
I'll just keep trying harder to meet my own standards,
and one day, someone's going to recognize my skills and effort.
