The Transition Period



I’ve been working so hard lately, constantly studying, writing, networking…But I wonder, will it all pay off? Will I really get what I want? Is it all worth it?

Lately, I feel like all my effort to achieve my dreams is coming at a cost. I have felt disconnected with the world, my friends, family, and now, even with my boyfriend.

Our lives are currently in a state of limbo. Chris is currently trying to start his career here, and it has been very difficult for him. He has had a lot of free time, which has most definitely driven us apart. 

This transition period has been very tough for us. I’ve honestly just been waiting for him to find a job and a routine so that we can also find OUR own routine. I just want to be able to relate to him again and him to me. 

So, the challenge for us will be to survive this period while we are doing such different things and come out of it together and strong…

Dear Bathtub, oh, how you taunt me

During another long and exhausting week, my mind and body dream of a nice, relaxing moment all to myself...

 These bathes make me want to spend all day soaking in the tub, but, alas, I must finish the week of projects, exams, and essays.

So Just Live


"In Life we do things. Some we wish we had never done. Some we wish we could replay a million times in our heads. But they all make us who we are, and in the end they shape every detail about us. If we were to reverse any of them we wouldn't be the person we are. So just live. Make mistakes. Have wonderful memories. But never ever second guess who you are, where you have been, and most importantly, where it is you're going."
