Whew... I know I don't often post about my personal ramblings, but these past few weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions. I don't know why but somehow I always get like this towards the end/beginning of a new semester, that overwhelming feeling of self doubt and worth. This time it's intensified considering that I will FINALLY be starting my Bachelors program in the fall, it's been a looonnggggg time coming. A very long time. I feel I have reached that point in my life where I am standing on the very edge of living. All this time I have been contained to a somewhat sheltered environment and if I succeed everything has the potential to change big time. I can only hope that all of this sacrificed time, money, blood, sweat, tears, and mental well being will pay off in the end. Until then I will confide in good company, good music, kind words, and continuous hot cups of tea.
