You hit me like a wrecking ball...

First of all I would like to say over my blog has reached over 3000 views, the support from all my friends and family is unreal. Thank you so so much!

So much has happened since my last blog, I crossed an item off my bucket list "running a half marathon". Let me just tell you that it was a struggle, don't think I could of done it without my best friend Karen Dawson. I have made a lot of progress as an RD and have been holding my own in school work, even though my health hasn't been the best this semester. I also was part of a huge event on campus called Up Til Dawn in which we raised over $11,000.00 for St. Jude.

So what hit me like a wrecking ball? I mean a senior engineering student has to have her life together by now right?

 Uhh..no. I just enrolled in my last semester of classes for Clarkson. And reality hasn't totally hit yet, being a senior is bittersweet. First of all you have this "I don't give a f**k" attitude, which believe it or not is awesome, because you do things you wouldn't have done before. As a senior the word embarrassment doesn't really exist. But even though you're building this confident self, you also secretly have worries about graduating. I was talking to my dad earlier this past week, and he reminded me that I have all the puzzle pieces to put my life together, but how I make my puzzle is up to me.

 Oh Dad, you and your weird analogies...

But the sad thing is as much as you hate to admit it when your parents are right, my dad is. I just don't know what kind of puzzle I want to make, and if every piece will fit, including me. 

There's a weird fog around me lately, but every storm runs out of rain right?

Taking one day at a time, and when graduation comes it comes.

Anybody with me?
