As much sense as this doesn't make, the majority of my week falls before Wednesday. Mondays are Mondays, Tuesdays come with 5 classes, and Wednesdays conclude with Anatomy lab.
So believe it or not, the best things come after 4:30 on Wednesdays. My lovely lab partner, Anna, and I got out of lab early so I hung up pictures in my room and collected thoughts and was finally able to relax after taking the dreaded anatomy exam today. (That's a story in itself, meh.)
I was able to spend the past weekend at home, and when it was time to return back to Trinity on Sunday night, I kept thinking to myself, I don't want to do this anymore, I HATE school. From the few weeks of semester 4 of college I've experienced, I'm not enjoying a single bit of it. I was overwhelmed with my 19 credits and challenging classes. All I wanted to do was do crafts everyday and hang out with Grandma, Nathanael, and Addie. I was sad, miserable, cranky, stressed, mad, hopeless, and lost in a sea of homework.
Today the sun shone, and lifted my spirits. I realized that sophomore year is a bit of a struggle for a lot of people. As students we are getting closer to the real working world and have bigger responsibilities and don't goof of as freshman anymore. It came to mind that MANY other people are having the same debates I have been having and aren't enjoying all the parts of a higher education either. I think I am finally letting go of that bitterness and realizing that I can, in fact, make it through my years at Trinity and come out as an RN, BSN with a psychology minor...ay ay ay.
I got a big hug of love from Sarah's mom today- thank you SO much! It could not have come at a better time.
At supper tonight David also texted me saying that he and Nathanael are coming to visit me this weekend. Brother & Boyfriend roadtrip! How presh, right?! I'm already anxiously awaiting their arrival and am planning some fun activities. (Chicago Auto Show...they'll love it!)
One highlight of Wednesday nights is One Tree Hill, I think it's safe to say that half of Tib34 and half of Tib22 are merely obsessed with the final season of the saga that started 9 years ago! It's always good to get out of the room and spend time with some reallllllly great girls. (PS-where is Nathan!?)
So here's to letting go of the hate I've been hoarding!

ReplyDeleteNice Post Friend :)
I have been praying for you. I could tell that it was getting harder for you to go back. I am glad things are looking up. BTW... have you checked your mailbox lately?
