Last year, at this time, I was already stressed to the bone. I was premed and my classes had proven exceedingly difficult, I hadn’t gotten a job, and was trying to absorb everything all at once (being away from home, first year of college, being in the city). This time around, I feel great. I switched my major to International Relations, got a job at one of my favorite restaurants (where I get to use my language skills), have connections to a few internships I want, I enjoy my classes, and life feels good.

I think part of it is because I’m using more energy, I’m more focused, I’m more familiar with the city and what’s going on, and I grew up a lot last year. And of course, I’ve let go of a lot of control and gave it back to God, so I trust in Him more too.

For the first time, I feel like I’m doing everything I’m supposed to be doing.

Praise Him:)
 
God is good! So glad to hear you’re enjoying the blessings in your life!

This is great. I’m happy for you, maria. God is amazingly good. 🙂
 
just the title of the thread made me smile.

a lot of where i am currently is where you were last year-- different circumstances, but every bit as swamped, strained and teeth-clenching.

just like you, there’s no wishing it away. i’m just living through, processing and praying. behaving peacefully toward others is my daily goal.
 
Glad to hear mate, hope this continues, glad you stuck with it,
