They can do it all
If you've ever played basketball or football or baseball or monopoly with me, you already know I'm not the best player in the world. I guess I'm just not coordinated enough cause something just doesn't click when I play these games. But when it comes to board games like Risk and Chess and Sorry, I'm the master and you better watch out. But like everyone I meet up here seems to be an All Star at everything. What can you do, you know? I guess the only thing to do is to just keep working on it, and hope you friends aren't watching. Anyway, There is one certain type of people that just amaze me. There's the people who can take on an after school sport, a band instrument, the science olympiad or national academic league and honors english all at once without showing on ounce of stress of frustration. Whatever medication there taking I want to know where I can get some. This school thing can kill a person!!

They amaze me, too! But you have a good point: Is it absolutely necessary to excel at EVERYTHING?! If you're good at games of strategy and you HAVE FUN doing them, I say more power to you. You've learned a life lesson that a lot of the more driven folks never figure out: It's okay to enjoy leisure time!
Just because I don't show my stress doesn't mean I don't experience it. Heavily and frequently. *attempts to hide the bald patches all over her head from tearing her hear out in frustration* J/k.
I wonder about them too. I used to be one of those crazy 'do it all' people, but now, even with my scaled back routine, I have a crazy amount of stress. How DO they deal? If you ever get a hold of their meds, pass me some. I'm in serious need.
