1. this past Friday me and my friend drove to Philly to check out a medical school for their D.O program and besides it being a fun road trip, it was kind of a life changing day for me. 
this whole year i’ve just been stressing out about what i’m going to do when i graduate next May and what my plan was for the rest of my life. to be honest, until we left that school, i didn’t have one. i made excuses to/for myself and was somewhat in denial. this uncertainty has been secretly eating away at me and as bad as it sounds i’ve just felt like a burden. i pushed things back on purpose so i didn’t have to deal with the reality of moving on from undergrad. i hated talking about graduating and answering that big question of “what’s next?” i secluded myself from really enjoying the company of others and just felt down in general, even though i hid it well with a smile or a laugh whenever people were around. all in all, those were not good times and i think it’s played a major part in this insomnia problem that i have. i know i’m not alone about feeling scared for the future and i’m sure a majority of the upcoming graduating class has the same thoughts, but it’s been pretty lonely dealing with it.
but now i don’t want to feel that way anymore. i’m tired of it, i’m better than that, and i know i’m not alone this time. i left that campus with bigger eyes, a wider smile, and the world at my feet. i have a plan now and a new goal and it feels good to be excited about the future. momentum regained, motivation refueled, and i’m happy again. this feels good.

[Edit] i feel like i look awkward in this picture. haha there were 3 cops right next to it starring at people as they took their pictures. it was kinda creepy. plus my friend and i had to run to take this ‘cause her car was not really legally parked. i also need a better camera ‘cause you can’t tell how cute my outfit was. my shirt has giraffes on it, whaaat?!
