At some point this week, I was pretty happy with things in my life. Strangely. It\’s midterms and I have one test and three assignments today, not to mention the whole week. I was at school every day from about 10:00 am all the way to 2:00 am. As stressed as it is, I walk out of the office one day knowing that I have so much to do, but also knowing that I can get through them fine, and I\’m just …… happy about it.
When I was struggling with my homework later on, I really wondered if I had lost my mind. It\’s only now that everything is settled, exams are done, and assignments are turned in that I realize what I\’m really happy about.
School is just a part of me now, and I have a far more interesting and fulfilling life outside. However, when I step into the school thing again, I can still do well in all these crap.
Before this semester, I spent 70% of my time focusing on school work and the rest of my time hanging out or just staying in my dorm watching TV shows or movies. Such a life is still very pleasant. But now I see more, and now I know that life can be so much more than that.
There was a shift in balance. I shifted the focus of my life from school to myself. And it feels so good. Life is finally on the right track.
Another amazing thing about life is that, you can always find a way to make it better.
