I just read this chapter, and I realized I am just like Alina - lost and sort of envying your confidence. I know what I want to do, but I'm still no closer to figuring out how to entertain. And all I can hear is the ticking of some giant imaginary clock, telling me "Time's running out. You better do something!" But I'm stuck and unsure of how to reach my dreams. I'm not sure that I'll get to entertain and be a mini-icon. It keeps me in a permanent state of anxiety.
