Going Back to School

Not many of my readers know this, but I took this semester off from school. Making that decision was one of the hardest in my life. Now that the Spring Semester is right around the corner, I'm eager to go back.

While I was gone I entered into a group therapy program. It was exactly what I needed. Hearing that I wasn't alone in my struggles opened up a whole new perspective for me. I found peace with the events leading up to leaving school. Most importantly, I learned to forgive myself. In the beginning, I was mad at myself and the situation I was in. With time I learned that it wasn't really my fault, and I learned to move on.

I'm excited to go back to school, but also extremely nervous. About what in particular? Seeing certain people I'm not in the mood to see. I'm also nervous about people asking questions. Don't get me wrong, I'm clearly an open book, hence this blog, but answering questions I don't want to answer, and its in person? That scares me.

I am also nervous leaving my family. They have been my biggest support system through everything, and not having them with me makes me slightly nervous. But I am strong, determined, and ready to go back to school. I may be weird, but I value my education, and I'm ready to stick my head in the books and graduate college in 2021. So.. here I go!
