I know, I haven’t been here in a while.
2013 hasn’t gone exactly as I expected all the way through. I’ve had to focus a lot of time and effort on my mental and emotional well-being, and reconsidering goals and aspirations for the future. Part of me is starting to feel like I’m too old to have “future goals.” I know that’s not the case, but thinking about it too much can bring a person down. I’ve struggled through some poor habits, poor feelings, and poor decisions this year. I want to get things back on track, but I often feel like I don’t know where to get started.
I am going to give more grad school another go-round. This cycle I’m going to put forth more effort on applications than I have in any one year in the past. Hopefully, that will mean a fruitful result, and help me to feel more like goals and aspirations are worth having. Some way or another, I’ve got to bust out of this rut and push ahead.
