Welcome Back

Hey guys,

Thanks for tuning back into my apparently weekly blog posts. I will try my very best to get these up on the daily from here on out as I don’t have another exam for 20 days!! Honestly this makes me feel really excited that I don’t have any exams for such a long period of time. On the other hand, I have another exam to look forward to so I’m trying to be optimistic.

5 great things that happened to me this past week:

1. I handed in my last paper for my upper division writing class. My one word I would use to describe that class is death. It is actual death, I’m not even exaggerating that. Upon handing in my paper I didn’t have to think about that again so I’m super excited that that’s done.
2. I had my first final today so I completed another class today which felt amazing! I really enjoyed that class but the stress from studying for that final is lifted off my shoulders.
3. I know it sounds super lame but I wore a new hoodie that I got last week and it’s SO SOFT! I was also matching some other people in my faculty and we took some cute photos for my student union executive team, which is amazing! 🙂
4. My student union had our annual networking night last Thursday and we had a great turnout! I think it was around 70 people that came which was fantastic. We had four different speakers. One of them was a sessional professor, one was involved with equestrian therapy, one was pursuing counseling, and one was involved with the government in corrections. We had a pretty diverse range of experts for it being a Psychology networking night so I’m super happy about that.
5. My classes are almost over. I have one more this week and then no more lectures until September! I’m almost there and so are those of you that are currently in school.

Of course there are always ups and downs, especially at this time of year. It is finals season after all. Overall, I’m at a pretty happy point in my life so I just wanted to share some good things that happened. Take these with a grain of salt as I am definitely not one to brag about anything. My positive experiences will hopefully put a smile on your face because I’m trying to be grateful and positive for all that I have.

Sending love and good vibes this finals season
