Happy Spring!
Mar. 20th, 2011 07:22 pmToday was the first day of spring (not that you can really tell here in Vermont, as we still have plenty of snow on the ground and are expecting a wintry mix tomorrow)! However today was lovely and filled with sunshine and as things continue to thaw and mud season begins in earnest promises of spring abound.
The past month or so has been crazy busy. I've continued to ride a roller coaster of emotions and illness. I haven't had much luck finding a new doctor, or psychiatrist, but I also haven't been looking very hard. As the semester passes the midterm mark I find it harder to find energy for anything other than school work.
This winter I have really struggled with negative self thoughts and unhealthy patterns. Now I am trying to refocus my thoughts and energies on more positive outlooks. It is always much easier to say than do. All I can do is take it a day at a time. Spring break was helpful. I got to spend some time with my dad and grandmother. Also touched base with friends at my former job. Both things reminded me of my accomplishments and abilities. Now I just have to try to hold on to that feeling.
I have a midterm exam tomorrow (thank the gods one of my professors isn't basing our grades solely on final exams) in Criminal Law. I'm relatively comfortable with the material, and am therefore not too worried about the exam. On Wednesday I have do a presentation for a group project (same class, was supposed to give my presentation last Wednesday but we ran out of time). Thankfully the work for that is already done. I need to revise a memo for my writing class. The final draft is due Thursday. So this week will be crazy busy. My goals are simple, though. Take it one day at a time and not miss a class this week.
