I am so pumped that the last week of school is here. I have been fighting and struggling this whole semester just to keep my head above water, so finals being here is a HUGE relief. I may not be getting a whole lot of sleep, but I do not care. I am ready for summer and to be home for a little while. I may have to wait another month in order to go home, but that's ok. I'm just ready to be done with school for a little while. It has drained every ounce of my being.
I took my math exam today, and my professor helped me out so much. He has earned a ton of respect from me, and I am so grateful to have him teach me. He gave me a chance that no other professor would have, and I am working my tail off trying to repay him. These past few months have just been rough, and I lost my motivation to do anything. It's been hard, but thank God for the professors I have and the University I go to. I have three more exams to go before I am done with my Junior year. I am still playing catch up and doing work that I need to get done. I have hit the bottom, and just recently I gained the energy to fight my way out.
We had our rugby end-of-the-year social yesterday. We said farewell to our senior players and I shed a few tears. This team has become my family, and Lord knows I needed it. They have been there for me through a lot of crap this year, and I love them like my own sisters. They have pushed me to do better in school and in my life, and I am so thankful. I will miss a couple seniors in particular, since I am housemates with one of them. I really don't know what I am going to do when she goes back home. We have had some great times together and done some crazy things. I just can't believe I'll be graduating from here before too long, and I will lose it. Nope, not going to even think about it.
Sorry for this being so long, I just have had a lot on my plate as of late. Take that back, I've had a lot on my plate for a while, but now I know how to prepare myself so that this does NOT happen again. It's like the song from the 90's that I always loved by the band Chumbawamba called "Tubthumping", or most people know it as "I Get Knocked Down." "I get knocked down, but I get up again. You're never gonna keep me down." No, never.
