“Men’s activities are occupied into ways — in grappling with external circumstances and in striving to set things at one in their own topsy-turvy mind.” – William James
When I get overly stressed, I tend to tell myself that stress is a matter of perception. Sometimes, it works. Other times, the anxiety just refuses to go away. What has helped me the most is knowing that the storm will be followed by calmness. That gives me a lot of hope, and makes enduring all the pain worth it.
Two more weeks to the end of my university life!
I’ll tell ya, getting out of university is quite a liberating experience. I’m not even a year out, but I’m not ready to go back!
I’d like to do Masters eventually. But, yes, I don’t think I’ll do it so soon!
Enjoy it because you will miss it no matter how painful it was. I started to miss about 4-5 years after… Engineering was that traumatizing :) hahahaha
Hahaha it must be that traumatizing for it to only sink in after 4 years :P The pain does make me forget how much I should be enjoying every last minute of it. Sigh.
It’s a different kind of life out there and sometimes it’s even more unkind. The stress you endure determines how strong you’ll become…..so you enjoy it right now Olivia, there will never be more perfection than there is now.
Thank you Anton! I’m trying to enjoy every last moment of it, even if they can be tad painful.
great shot
thank you! :)
I believe good photographers can see things other’s don’t, can spot nuances in the environment, and make them apparent to everyone else – and that’s why I think this shot is awesome!
Thank you Aveshan!
