I survived!!! I am all done with my senior fall and this is literally how you will find me…celebrating and dancing on an elevated surface hahaha! I honestly can’t believe that I made it through the past four months based on my mental and emotional state when I left for college this September. I proved myself wrong and my inner strength really surprised me. I feel healthier, happier, and my motivation is at an all time high!

One mantra in particular that I have found to be very powerful and that worked well for me, is this:

I repeated this to myself constantly throughout the semester, as well as during finals, and it just reminded me that if I put my all into something, and committed to it, than success was definitely a possibility. I won’t know until after Christmas how I did academically, but what is most important is that I ended my semester on a positive note and I worked hard without compromising my health. Now the only thing left for me to do is decide what I want to commit to, and succeed in, over my winter break…I think I might be leaning towards focusing my attention on developing my blog more…stay tuned 😉
