Look @ The Positives ++++

Interested Readers,

If I look back on my previous blogs, I see I have been rather negative. When you are negative, you are simply blocking the positive avenues. However, isn't it important to reflect and question your actions and feelings? I am trying to turn over a new leaf and look at the positives more so than the negatives.

I have decided to pursue graduate school in pharmacology and oral biology. Both interest me and are areas in which I can excel. I went to see my favourite professor today and it's interesting to talk to them AFTER you have been their student. Their language and conversation was from student to adult. He gave me some great advice and I appreciate him very much. He told me to not look down upon this year of "turmoil and humiliation" but to learn from it. If I do get accepted into the MSc program, I will not only bring my brain into the faculty, but I will have a year of life experience. He said no textbook, professor, parent, or friend can give you this experience except yourself. He is absolutely correct... nobody can take it away from me either. I think if I were to begin school in September, I would carry a new charisma and frame of mind with me. I know what I can improve on as a student and as a citizen.

As the snow FINALLY melts, so does my negative attitude over the past year. Things could have been worse and the best is yet to come. I need to forget about people who slander and question my "year off". Instead, I frown about them and their inability to understand there is more to life than a job. I have been working... I just haven't been getting paid in $$...just in priceless experiences.

Ready for another sidewalk,
