I don't really know how else to put this, but 6 weeks from now, all the hard work, efforts, tears shed, trace papers wasted, countless sleepless hours & money spent on portfolios will have paid off in some regards. The panic that I have felt in the past three years and the countless times I have thought that I could not do this will have washed behind me, because I will have made it through. I pushed pass the odds, I can officially say, that I made it...in 6 weeks.
But I can never credit myself. Oh no! I went through this journey with some of the STRONGEST WOMEN (and Gents) that I know! The journey is not my own and even though I am almost finished and through with it, I am proud of my family. I never use that term lightly in an way. Literally, I think of all of you guys as my family. I feel overwhelmed and a little bit sad that it's almost done, but you guys helped to make it happen.
Sometimes at points along this journey I wished for more, I wished that I dug deeper and strive harder but my journey is what I make of it, and in the end, the knowledge has made me grow to be a better person. For now, I have to say that its about the seed that was planted inside of me to grow and not magically, because goodness knows I WORKED HARD (blood sweat and tears) for this degree, but thankfully I have you girls to be my support system!
This is not my sad goodbye, but more my midterm check up because I will be soon crying (happy tears only lol)
Til next time
