You know it's weird, it felt like just yesterday that I was starting uni for the second time. I remember worrying about it and writing blog posts about it. And now here we are, already at the end of year one. What's weird about it is the flatness of it all, it's probably because exams are still on the way. But today, I had a different feeling than at the end of a high school year. That's probably to be expected. It's like I said back in March, University isn't high school. It's more like adult life, where you don't get to celebrate these things, you're just supposed to get on with life. Well, not just that I think. Something I've come to realise this past year is that you have as much control over your life as you want. For instance, you don't have to study what you choose in high school, you don't have to take the same path to graduation as everyone else. What I've realised is that no one is going to tell you what to do, or what to study. You're supposed to figure all that out yourself. Kinda like real life, I guess. If school is like the tutorial to life, then university is life with training wheels. You still have to push yourself and make decisions that will impact your life, but it won't be the end of the world.
Honestly, it's exciting. The opportunities I have, the places I can go, the things I can do. I'm a very lucky person to have been given this chance at life. To that point, I think it's time that I take this seriously. To be honest, I didn't have the best time last semester, and the first few weeks of the is one. I still felt like I was stuck. But after working that out I need to put the work in. I need to be the one to push myself out of the box that I put myself in. I've been a lot happier. And I think I've grown too, a lot too. I think I'm beginning to see things clearer now.
While I might be growing up, there are fewer things to celebrate. But I think I've grown grown a lot this year, and I think that's worth celebrating,
See ya
