The past week or so has been very good for me. I finally got a new phone after three years with a razor. and seven years with t-mobile.
I studied my ass off and it paid off. I got a 92 on my anatomy exam! I barely believed it when my professor read the grade aloud then followed with my name. It felt good. I exclude the fact that he then called out our laboratory exam grades and I got a 59. Hahaha, oh well. The highest grade was a 79. And the lowest grades on both lecture and lab exams are dropped, so my current average is a 92. It's surreal. Ashley O'Halloran.. on the dean's list. um wow. I can barely believe how well i'm doing but it comes with a big sacrifice. My social life is at the bare minimum. Honeslty, it's kind of worth it as long as I still have my sanity. So we'll see how that goes.
I am finally off the pill and i'm turning away more and more from my big escapist dilemma. I wake up happy and things don't get me down as easily anymore. I have much more energy and I feel more alive. I don't think I will ever take the pills again.
I am also finally done with my ex-boyfriend. I lost all attraction to him. I don't smile when I think of hanging out with him. It took me almost three years to realize that I wasn't happy at all. We were constantly fighting and there was no trust. We have been trying to work out a friendship but it's hard trying to be friends with a boy you do not have much in common with.
Believe it or not my life is really piecing together. I had been with someone for so long the thought of being alone sounds really shitty. But it's actually so liberating. I don't think I will settle down again until I am 100% sure I like everything about them. Their quirks are supposed to be the glue that holds your affection together for that person. When this person comes along, good for me. In the meantime, I have a few amazing friends at school. I have Alina. I'm finally rekindling old friendships that I didn't realize how much I missed. Things couldn't be better in relations to family life. I would have never thunk it.
I do need to go to volunteer work more often. The Sensory Freeway needs alot more help, and it's suchhh good experience. People come from all over New York to get their kids into their therapy programs. I'm learning so much from observing and helping out, stop being a lazy biatttchh.
that is all.
