hello everyone !!
so today, i finally looked at my final grades for the first semester of school, and...
they were AMAZINGGGG!!
i was so shocked to see that i got a B+ in biology, like i was ecstatic. i was so relieved, because i thought i would have like a C or C-, but B PLUS?!? it was so unexpected, but i guess that final exam really bumped it up and i'm so so glad.
i also managed to get an A- in chemistry, which i was also really happy to see because the whole semester i was thinking the best i was gonna get was a B.
i'm honestly so proud of myself, especially because of all the challenges and anxiety this semester brought me. i learned a lot from it as well, so i wanted to share with you all.
yes, it's a well known fact that college brings many challenges. however, i have learned that if you have the right people to support you as well as the drive to succeed, college is not impossible.
there were so many days where i doubted my abilities, more failed exams than i'd like to admit, slow mornings where i didn't even feel like opening my eyes, and many moments where i even considered changing my major. there were so many times where i just felt like giving up.
but i didn't give up. and now that i see where it has gotten me, i feel as though i really can do this.
i know it's not over yet, but with continued support, effort, and determination, i will get through it!
and so can you, so don't give up. life is hard, but you only get one, so make it count !!

thank youu, you’re absolutely right!
i didn’t really realize how important it is to have support until now. i know that i probably would have been off pretty bad without it.

I'm so glad you did better than you thought you were going to!! manifesting this for myself
although I'm still in high school, I can recognise that college presents so many valuable opportunities to develop resilience & continue our personal growth, which I think is a reason to go in & of itself, not just to get a degree. I hope you're able to enjoy your break even more with a renewed sense of confidence in yourself- not so much because of the letters themselves, but because of all the perseverence it took to get there ♡
