YEAR2 @ SCU7
I’m really in love with Winter2012. This has been the best quarter for me, academically and personally, since… I can remember. Until last week, I had straight A’s [and now I have an 87 in a class.. T__T]. I really cannot remember the last time I had straight A’s. Not only that, the classes that I’m taking are amazing. I’m so glad that I got into Developmental Psyc, although my best dropped it. But I knew that that class would be awesome; I didn’t think my other classes could match up. But I was pleasantly surprised.
I have a friend in French class who cracks me up every day. The class itself is just alright, but Hao is just so funny. Developmental is awesome, of course, because my professor is the beeesstttt! She’s really interactive, and actually connects with her students. Love her. I was unsure of my other two classes, but it turns out being in classes with pre-teaching students is awesome! They’re so chill. In my Children, Family, and Society class, I get to learn about babies all day. I love babies!
In my Community Health Education class, we have to listen to podcasts from a woman named Tara Bracht, and write reflections on them. At first, I thought it was a bit pointless, but I’m on my third reflection, and I have to say that they’re pretty cathartic. I guess a lot has happened to me over the years, and it feels nice to write about them. The first topic I chose to write about was Genuine Acceptance. The second was on Mindful Speech. My current one is about Forgiveness. It’s really does feel good to write about my experiences with these topics, and how they relate to my mental/physical health. Who would’ve known that I still had so much pent up inside of me? Definitely not me. It feels nice to write about a time of my life that… basically sucked, for lack of words, and not feel bitter bout it anymore. I guess I’m glad that I had so much drama for… a year of my life, because it provides great writing material haha. Okay, I’m not glad that I had the drama, but I’m glad that it… helped me become a better person, I guess?
It’s just crazy thinking about how different I was two years ago. Exactly two years ago, I was reeling from a bad bad bad breakup, and just… stuck. And now, I’m so content with my life. More than content, really. I’m so so so happy. I don’t think I could even imagine happiness at this level back in senior year.
What can I say? Life is good.
