Iris

Haven't updated in a while.

So I pretty much decided that I'm for sure going to grad school. Now it's a matter of doing the paperwork, taking the GRE, and getting everything in order. Frankly, the whole paper process really freaks me out, but I know it's something I gotta do in order to get where I want to go. That's about as far as I've thought on this issue. I don't know when, where, or how I'm going to do it...

It was never about not being smart enough or not hard-working enough. It was about finding the courage to say that this is actually something I really want and reaching a concrete decision about it. Still one of the things I struggle most with - indecisiveness. It was an issue in high school and it's followed me all throughout college. I guess some weaknesses just don't go away?

One of the most valuable pieces of advice a professor ever gave:

"Don't be passive about your education."

I won't be.
