seeing everyone around me saying things like pain is temporary, gpa is forever, or things like how studying is the most important thing and honestly la, seeing all this i can only say that i don't understand. and yes, i agree, gpa is important. but gpa is definitely not forever, and is never going to be the most important thing in my life in any point in time, thank you very much. and it kind of scares me too, all these wonderful people being so concerned about one thing that is- honestly not all that important as compared to so many other things. and i feel like all this is making us lose our sense of perspective, but perhaps it's just me. and okay, people i tell me it's fine for me because i do well. perhaps it's true, perhaps it's not, but really you don't need to try too hard for this (and most other things as well).
still, i'm glad eyas are coming in 4 weeks (which is most people is an absolutely ridiculous thing to say), because it does bring a relief from everything else. the focus is appreciated, very much so, if only to take a break from the focus to do something else not school related.
and for everyone else who is still willing to be a mentor even if they are still a work in progress
