“…And success in life often comes from not giving up despite mistakes and failure. It comes from being persistent.”
This last year has been horrendous for me. Although many good things happened, I feel the bad outweigh the good this time. I am trying to break down my habits. Seeing where the good and the bad lie. What habits I should drop and continue.
I have not only let down myself, but the investor of my life aka my dad. Last year is pretty much thousands of dollars down the drain. Good job mingy.
I keep telling myself, “This is the year I will do better. This is my year.” But I keep failing to follow through. I should pin this quote on my wall. Have a solid reminder every day after waking up.
It all comes down to this year. If this is not “my year,” then I’m out.
It’s time to stop beating myself up. It only wastes my time in creating more pain and shit to think about. I should just thing proactively and ahead in the future. Know that things can only get better.
I feel your pain, v chan. This year I fucked myself grade wise. I only managed to keep my 3.0 by sheer luck (and a little lie to the teacher). My excuse was the classes were boring but since my major is Spanish, I shouldnt be bitching.
ReplyDeleteI used my downtime to sleep and be antisocial so I was thinking about joining a frat or club next semester as well. I am also taking more classes I like so Ill do my best to get only A's and B's. Anyway, we'll both do our best to keep our shit together.
Keep writing your stories 'cause I love reading 'em!
Phil,
ReplyDeleteSo you're still staying at UIC i assume?
If so, a frat or a club is definitely something to do. I will post a blog on why soon. This next year will truly be our year.
Much love.
