Little Life Update

I wish I could get back into blogging as much as I used to. I know I could if I really prioritized it, but I just need to get back into the habit. ANYWAYS - I got into an Occupational Therapy program!!!! I will be starting in January and wow am I excited but also extremely nervous. I have been interested in the Occupational Therapy field for the last 4 ish years and I am finally on some type of track to actually becoming an Occupational Therapist in a couple of years. I know it will be a lot of hard work to get to that point, but I know I am capable of anything I set my mind to. Not having classes the last few months has been extremely interesting- in the first month or so I felt more bored at times and wished I had some school work to do and actually found myself watching crash courses in my free time (LOL) (I know, weird! But how can I go from being in school for the last 16 years of my life to not in school at all? I know others can agree it's strange!) But after that first month or so of feeling like I am missing being in classes, I spent my time working, doing things for myself, and spending time with my people- and now I am kinda not ready to go back to having school take up some of my time! I know once I get back into it and adjust to having schoolwork back into my life, I will be okay and grateful and ready to kick the OT program's butt. Other than that exciting news, I have really just been going through the motions. Definitely trying to take advantage of and soak in having all of this free time, but also feel some type of sadness/fear as I know the next phase of my life is coming so fast and it will definitely bring some big changes as my priorities shift. Life is not meant to always be the same though, and I know, whatever happens, happens for a reason. Life is more fun with some twists and turns and stepping out of your comfort zone, even if it is a little scary at times. "I am capable" is one of my favorite affirmations recently, and I know everyone else is capable to do great and hard things as well. :)
