I know going back to school is a total bummer for most people but, as many of you hopefully know, I try and look at the bright side of things. Think of it this way — going back to school means that you’re halfway through the year. The nice weather will be coming, but maybe if you’re lucky, you’ll get a few snow days in there before spring hits. That was always my favorite part about the start of the year — knowing that even though winter break was over, the winter season was just beginning. Nevertheless, once that spring weather does it, you know that you’ve only got a few more months until you’re out for summer break! Not bad, right?
While most of you are going into your second semester, I am actually going into my first. Recently, I decided to go back to school and while I’m somewhat nervous, I’m super excited about what the future will bring. With the economy the way it is, I’ve been having a very hard time finding a job, so after discussing the idea of going back to school with literally everyone I know, I made the decision to go back and study with the hope that the field I’m interested in will still be taking applicants by the time I get my degree.
I haven’t been in school for almost six years now so if anyone out there has any advice about returning to school, please leave it in the comments below! While I’ve never been the biggest fan of school, I’m excited about the possibilities that come with it. I’m eager to get back in the game and get my life back on track. For any of you who are thinking about doing the same, especially after the year we were given, just know that I’ll be running in this race with you. I’m optimistic that only good things will be waiting for us on the other side!
Whether going back to school makes you groan with annoyance or skip with excitement, just know that you’ve got a friend who's going through the journey with you! 2021 is going to be different and only in the best ways. While there will most definitely be some bumps in the road, just know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it’s full of good things! Let’s get through this semester together! Good luck, everyone!
