So, I was at Walmart for a white elephant gift and noticed several members of BYU’s Cougarettes shopping together (recognizable by the “BYU Cougarettes” on the back of their jackets). They have a kind-of celebrity status in the Provo area, and I noticed myself feeling intimidated relatively quickly. I think this is irrational, and a reflection of my own insecurity, and I’d like to overcome that… I’m glad I have a roommate who I can talk about stuff like that with :) I heard HWN in my conversation with Matt as I was able to be genuine about my experience, and he shared ways he could relate :)
