I Can See the Light at the End of the Tunnel

There are ups and downs of being 4 weeks away from the end of semester and graduation. I may have touched on these thoughts in previous blogs, but this is honestly all that fills my mind these days, so here it is:

The positives is after this I will have two associate degrees, which is awesome! And I have saved money by going to two-year colleges so I got a ton of resources at a bargain and I will have no debt, and no more expenses with tuition. I have gained so much useful knowledge and experience going through this animation program and I am pumped for the future!

The negatives right now is mostly stress at the heart of it. Since it is the final semester all the classes are harder as they are sort of testing all the skills that the student has learned thus far. I have a ton of work that has to be done in less than 4 weeks, and it's a challenge at times. I will admit that the stress definitely affects other things in my life, like my physical health, and my overall mood and enjoyment of freetime. But I am trying really hard to remind myself that-- for better or worse-- it will all be over soon.

I think in a few weeks I will take a gigantic nap! Don't forget to have some self-care time, my Sparklies. Stay happy, healthy, and safe!
