Hmm. Well this week was pretty great honestly. Academically I've gotten things back in order. I finalized my schedule for next trimester, I got the few assignments done that were a bit overdue, and I actually managed to be here every day of the week (which doesn't sound like much of an accomplishment to most, but I've been focusing on the little things). And on top of it all I've pulled my grades back up to all A's. I'm so proud of myself for that specifically. Things outside of school have managed to be pretty great as well. I took this week to kind of separate myself from the habit I'd been falling into (having friends over after school too often=falling behind), which was much needed. I've been doing a good job keeping myself occupied but not overwhelmed. It feels good. Neil also had most of the week off (which could be part of why it was such a good week) so we finally managed to get a lot of things accomplished around the house that were far overdue. As overwhelmed as I was in the first month or so of living out on my own I still find myself immensely thankful for the opportunity and all of the experiences I've had. I've bettered myself in ways that I never would've imagined, and for the first time in years I can look myself in the mirror and truthfully say that I am happy. It may not be smooth sailing from here on out--I expect another hurricane or two. But I am confident in my sea legs and hopefully destined for the beautiful horizon set before me. I've got this.
