Midterms Stress

Shared on October 17, 2019 via Instagram and Facebook.

Some days are just bad. Today was one of those bad days. Midterms week is kicking my ass and then today my favorite professor reminded me that in one year from now I won’t even be in college anymore. He asked me what I want for my future and I told him the truth: “I don’t know, I’m just so lost right now.” I just wanted to grow wings and fly away with every hour that passed today. And then sunset came, and somehow I was able to collect myself and all my worries and dig deep to find the strength I need to finish this day, this week, this month, the rest of 2019. The Lord may not be able to paint me a perfect picture of my life and my future right now, but I can be damn sure it is going to be alright if it is even half as beautiful as the picture he painted for me this evening.

I am originally from Long Island, New York. Now, I live and work in D.C. at as an acoustic consultant. I graduated from The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. with my bachelors of mechanical engineering in May of 2020. I love living in D.C. because it is smaller than New York City (where I basically grew up), so it was easy to get around. There is always something fun to do all day, every day. I have a few blog posts up about my time at Catholic University, and I plan to write a lot more! If there is one thing that you remember from reading this, it should be that I love spending quality time with friends and family. They are my support system, and I would not be the woman I am today without each and every one of them. Simply put, they mean the world to me. I am also a faithful Catholic and have a passion for music and art. I play the piano, guitar, ukulele, kalimba, and I sing! When I started this blog, I was back in New York due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the shutdown of my campus. My sister and I published a few episodes of our podcast called The Chirp at the beginning of the summer, but when we both started working, it become difficult to manage. I started this blog in August of 2020 because I was looking for a new recreational project that would stick. So, here’s to a new start!
