I can’t help but feel that grad school is selfish

Let’s face it, grad school is selfish! It’s all consuming. It is a giant monster that bursts into your life and suddenly begins to eat up everything you love as you try to strike back. And as your life gets devoured by this crazy, hellish thing, you realize that you’re the one who invited it into your home and that you have to protect yourself.

An obstacle I didn’t think I’d need to worry about

My age insecurities, my natural shyness and tendency to use class time to its fullest has been working against me in terms of finding “my people.” I’m sure that I’ll find them eventually, but I must say it is hard feeling so out-of-place all the time.

When grad life feels like a ceaseless treadmill

I’m writing today from a place of exhaustion, defeat, anxiety, and of stress over what’s to come. This semester has been rough. I’ve had some mental health issues acting up that I’m still trying to return to baseline, physical health issues that have cropped up, and the school work just does not stop!

The beginning of the end

This week was the last week of my clinical internship. And I was so sad to go. By some miracle, I was able to hold in my tears, until the next day anyway. I can’t believe I only have 30 days left until the end of school.
