It’s been a week of school and I’m already tired. lol.

It’s a weird time where every class is starting content and jumping right into things and I’m at a point where I don’t know what to do to not be behind. It’s one of those things that are just odd. I can’t wrap my head around it, and then I get instantly stressed again. It’s an odd cycle to be in but this happens so often that I overthink to the point where I don’t realize that I have time to relax.

I love most of my classes. It’s definitely different from first year where now I get to focus on what I am interested in learning whereas I am not just taking classes to take them.

I love my house. I love my room. I love my roommates. I am actually really happy to just be doing my thing.

It was always such a scary thing when I was in high school thinking about going to university. Something about it didn’t sit well in my stomach. Maybe I was struggling with the fact that change was going to happen. I was still at a point in my life where I couldn’t understand that change was good. And I know I have explained it before where I used to be very strict in that way where I wouldn’t accept change. It was hard to move forward because I was stuck in one place. And university seemed like a whole lifetime away. A whole world away. But here I am. In second year. Happy to just be in a place where I can be independent, live life with my friends, enjoy my company and everything just seems exciting. I don’t know what’s coming next. I don’t know how my weeks are gonna go. But I have finally accepted the fact that this era of my life is an adventure. An exciting one too. In this chapter of my life, I am in for some major character development and just adapting to a new lifestyle. Whether or not it’s small changes or big changes, the fear will go away and I will continue to grow.

 

Today I went to a really cute Hamilton market. They close off an entire street and it’s filled with vendors, food trucks and live music and it is so cute. But I went to this pizza place and it had the cutest patio. It felt like a cute place that you would find in downtown Toronto so it threw me off that it was so hidden. Now I want to share all the hidden little gem restaurants in Hamilton because they are so cute. And the food was a 10.

I keep shopping. It’s getting bad again. And I haven’t even started my job yet. yikes. Everything I got though I am so excited about so I think it was worth it. Or is it because I am an addict where it just makes sense that I shop this much. Who knows.

Hope you are all doing well.

STAY KIND:)

with love
