Full Circle

Organic Chemistry is over with and I’m a little nervous about my grade. The professor sent an e-mail to the students saying that he had our final grades tallied but that we would need to e-mail him requesting our grades. I had a B going into the final, but I’m nervous about my final grade because the final exam was so difficult. I shouldn’t worry, but I can’t help it.

No worries. If my goal is to lead an interesting, successful, and fulfilling life I can’t live in fear, can I? My birthday is a week from this Saturday and I can’t believe I’m going to be 23 years old. Time is going by so quickly and I always feel like I don’t have much to show for it. I know that will change when I finally graduate, but graduation is an uncertain date far in the future.

I read an entry I posted one year ago today and can’t help but question what happened to the person who wrote it. I’ve changed so much since that day and yet I’m still the same person. Just as I was doing last year I’m thinking about the future, searching for a job, stewing over taking the MCAT, and looking forward to a challenging semester. Anyone can see that I have reason for feeling like I’ve accomplished nothing this past year. I still have so much to accomplish and I think I’m finally ready to achieve the goals I’ve clung to for so long.
