Going back to college after Christmas feels a lot like Persephone being pulled back into the underworld for the rest of the year
This time last year I had left university, moved back home, and checked into inpatient treatment for severe mental health issues.
Today I received my first class honours degree results.
I am living proof that no matter how low you are, you can always fight your way back up. Life has a funny way of completely turning around quicker than you can imagine. Don’t believe me? Fine! I did not believe it either last year! But the beautiful thing about life is that it finds a way, whether you believe it will or not. All the hard work you’re doing? Keep it up! I promise you the payoff will be visible sooner than you think!
First day of work at my summer job tomorrow!! I’m a little nervous because I’m stuck there for 2 months full time so I hope it’s nice... Trying to pump myself up and instill some self confidence!!
All my friends are graduating and I’m here for another year.. 5 years for a fucking undergrad. And I know taking time off last year was necessary for my health but I still feel like a failure ffs
Had 3 exams these last few days, all 3 hours long and soul crushingly hard… And 2 more next week! But after my exam this afternoon I went for a drink on the college lawn with my friends and I realised just how incredibly blessed I am despite all this stress; and yes I know how corny that sounds but aaah it was just so beautiful sitting in the sun with people who love me and realising that I am finally alright and everything will be okay
Trying to decide if I should go single honours politics and write a thesis next year, or if I should keep my joint honours with history and not write one... I am honestly so torn and so bad at making decisions, this is so s t r e s s f u l
Gaaaah I'm feeling so sluggish and unproductive today and I've been in the library for hours but got nothing done... I really need to FOCUS!!!! My exams start in two fucking weeks and I'm so unprepared but I'm too stressed out to actually concentrate
Am I seriously turning into the girl in love with her thesis supervisor???? Surely not???? Surely that's too cliché???? Wtf?!? H E L P
