Reflections from school

The semester is almost over and I have not written a thing since I started my new college experience. It took me such a long time to get adjusted to everything and all the papers and projects and research papers due. It has definitely been an interesting school semester which is winding down really quickly. I have some days off before exam starts and then I am home for two glorious months. Sadly I don't have the finances to travel in that two months.

There was never a weekend where I didn't have work to do, or studying to get done. After my mid semester I was at the top of the class which I am so proud of. I have never been so dedicated to work as I am now. I really believe this is where i should be, its like confirmation from God. I have had to work in groups and that has been so challenging for me at times. the huge age gap really made it frustrating at times.

Being a child of God means we have to stand out and be different and that comes with the fact that not everyone is going to like you. And boy oh boy have I seen that this semester. Someone always tries to bring down your name but character above all else stands. I know I am going to have my challenges throughout. But sometimes when people are backstabbers it can be difficult. Tonight i just started crying when a class mate told me the things others say about me. I know it should not bother me but tonight I don't know what happened. People will talk no matter what I do, so why am I being such a crybaby about this? I'm human too, I bleed red.

I aim to be the top, but I have to ensure I take care of me too. I tend to work hard and no play whatsoever. I have been in church once a week for most of the semester and that too has been hard. I love God and pray that i be grounded in Him
