Positive Vibes and Attitude

I thought I would get the chance to go home only when the semester finally ends. However, I've realized I needed to go home to rejuvenate my battered self and get strength from my family.

The past few weeks have been so stressful and frustrating on my part. This semester is supposedly easier compared to my first semester last year (due to the absence of a unreasonably demanding professor). However, this semester has so far been the most stressful one.

I attribute the overwhelming level of stress from lack of emotional maturity to face this "upgraded" academic and intellectual task. I sometimes even think I just got lucky to get invited to the PhD track. I have even felt that I shouldn't be here.

Yet I am here. I got invited. While I am struggling to succeed, I should realize that I wouldn't be here without a good reason. I guess I simply have to be more confident, have more courage, believe and have faith.

Getting some much-needed break with the love of my family at home is simply great. Especially after reading a couple of my previous blog posts, my mindset on life lightened and my frustration and disappointment turned to challenges in a positive sense.

I intend to survive this course. I will give my best and strive for excellence, but I shall not forget about my whole well-being, including my health and the simple pleasures of life. I greet the new day with a smile, armed with positive vibes and attitude. :)
