Thanks for the push... I guess?

You know that when your companions feel like you need a push? ...
I told them it's okay to do so, cause I sometimes miss the motivation or courage to act out. I didn't expect it to be like this though.
I had an job interview yesterday. I was super happy as I wanted to ascend to another position and now had the opportunity to, what already wondered me cause I know my experience actually wasn't enough. But when I applied I thought why not? And asked my companions for help. Well the invitation came two weeks after and I was just dancing and screaming out of happiness xD and then the day came...
it was a horrible day I tell ya, a lot of stress. I tried to make an presentation for it, but the program kept crashing and nothing worked out. By the time I needed to get going, I wasted all the morning for a nonexistent presentation and just collected the little stuff I had from last projects, to at least show something off. When I arrived at the company, I was having a bad black out. Great! I thought. I couldn't remember a single detail about the company, but had to get in there now. I asked my companions to support me one last time. I was shaking from nervousness and when I finally sat down with the managers it all happened very quick.
It was like I was a different person. I presented them with what I had to offer and did so with such a naturalness, that they were positively surprised. What stuck with me the most, was something we said at the end. One of the managers told me jokingly he would be able to do all of this just like me. I was like Oh really? and he said no he wished so! and my answer was what left me speechless afterwards... I feel even bad typing this.. I said to him Yeah it would've surprised me!
He just stared at me, with his facial expression derailing. The other two had to laugh so hard at my comment, that they were in tears soon after, but I just felt horrible! I did not intend to say this, it just slipped off my tongue and I felt like sinking into the ground. I think I sounded awfully smug. Right after the whole conversation it was like I returned to my 'normal' state and I couldn't really belief what I said.
I know that my companions gave me a boost, or rather said a push. I didn't expect it to be this way. In the end it was just the right thing. But I still blush at the thought of my performance. \D
