Birthday Blues

Today is my 25th birthday. I can't believe i'm 25. Someday I'll laugh at this because 25 is still relatively young but it seems like my 20th birthday was last year. So much has happened since then. In some ways I have grown and am completely different but in many ways I am the same. Today my birthday was spent going to class and studying, studying, studying. I didn't expect anything because finals start next week and everyone is studying but I still got the birthday blues. Jason and my mom and family are going to a concert and I just wanna be home. I'm so sick of studying and I have hardly started the hard part leading up to finals. Not even close to ready, I have SO much more to do and learn. The only thing keeping me going is the wedding coming up, the bachelorette party, the family coming into town, and our honeymoon!! I am so excited, it takes everything I have to focus on school and not give up, I am too close to the finish line to give up now, I would seriously regret it. Term 2 has been tough but good. I have some great friends here, we don't go out much, and I feel like I'm not having as much fun as I did last term, but I know the island better and my friends better and the routine of studying every day for hours is becoming normal and not so daunting. This post is all over the place but I just wanted to get something down for the sake of recording it. I will love to look back at this later in life just as I have enjoyed looking at my first posts. I have come so far but have so much further to go! Back to neuro...
