Obstacles

          Many times in life we are faced with situations that we may rather not be in. More often than not we ask ourselves "why me?" "what have I done to deserve this?". We have all had these times in our lives where we felt totally down and as if the entire world was against us. For those who may be religious, you may begin to question your faith, etc. We all go through these trying times, and sadly this is mine. I am convinced my world may be crashing right down. In my previous post I wrote on how I was VERY close to dropping out of UWI, but this too shall past. I shall now make UWI my bitch. I have enrolled in summer school and I will be doing EVERYTHING I can to be successful.
         
          There is NOTHING wrong with having to stop and restructure your life. Sometimes your initial path may not be the path for you, but you know what? You shall find your way ! These are obstacles, but you should see them as stepping stones and building blocks. These minor discrepancies make you grow as a person, after all this blog is on "adulting". Let all these things be lessons, nothing in life should be a mistake, if you may think it is, turn that into a lesson.

One Step at a Time

          This blog is entitled "Adulting" and the url says "The Ripening of Berry" , now it's time to actually get back on track with my theme. As my first year of university has been completed, I have faced some obstacles in my way that honestly, I have thought many times to just not go back for a 2nd year. Take some time off and then go back, this still is a thought. I guess we'll see what I decide to do, but currently I am in the frame of mind of taking a year off. Now some may think of this as me quitting, it really isn't. I think of it as me doing what is best for me. My program is EXTREMELY challenging, I LOVE maths but sometimes I ask myself "is it worth it?" This question I have been asking myself a lot recently. As I grow day by day I have come to realise that sometimes sacrifices have to be made. Maybe me taking a year off from UWI won't be a bad idea, but maybe it will be. I truthfully don't know. Many see me and always wonder why I'm always smiling, why am I always happy. Well truthfully that is far from the truth. Many times I sat in my match box and cried because the workload was overwhelming, it was too much and I quite frankly wanted to give up. Many times I called mummy and told her I want to come home. I'm still within the frame of mind to give up, well not give up but simply take a year off and get back into the groove. Guess we'll see what I decide to do in a couple of weeks to come.
