To The Freshman Me,
If only you could see how different your life played out than you anticipated it to.
You’ve experienced heartaches, severe anxiety, financial struggles, and a list more. However, you’ve also gained the right kind of love, new outlooks on life, new passions, and a more positive mentality. And because of these, it all became worth it.
Your knowledge has expanded in more areas than just your major. You have learned to be more driven, trust in the Lord, and that your car definitely needs oil to run. You have gained knew friends outside of your organizations. And that is okay to have friends that aren’t mutual to the ones you already have.
You became way more open minded and tried knew things. Who knew you would love your new job so much? You became more money conscious. Even though the money you will be making will be going straight out the door due to bills, you are not spending it on last minute unnecessary items.
The gym is your happy place. Go even when you don’t want to, I promise you will leave feeling inspired. You want the world even more than you did yesterday. Trust me, you may think you’ve seen it all, but darling there is still so much more to explore. Spoiler Alert: Germany is more beautiful than you think.
You became more and more okay with change. You will experience some really rough hardships. So hard that every time you bounce back from it, you get knocked right back down again. But good news! You got right back up every single time. Even stronger than before in fact.
If only you could see yourself now. I just know you would be your own role model if you could.
Love,
Your Senior Self
This has been your daily dose of Vitamin C!
