I'm kind of unhappy. I'm considering trying to transfer to UNC. I have no idea if I will get in, but I'm not convinced that Kentucky is the right place for me.

I'm hoping this feeling will pass. Reassuring words absolutely welcomed at this point.

There are days when I wonder what the hell I was thinking. I'm not cut out for this, I hate it, everyone hates me, I can't do the work, I'm going to screw up someone's child, etc.

Then there are other days when I just revel in how cool I am and how much I love doing what I'm doing and being where I am. I live in an awesome city, the program is the best in the country and they wanted me, I've made amazing friends, I'm talented, I'm brilliant, I'm going to revolutionize school-based family psychological services, etc.

It sounds like you're on one of the former. I hope the latter happens for you, too. It's so easy to get discouraged (more so for you, I feel certain--law school sounds mean!), but I've really been working on remembering my positive times, too. You are strong and smart and wonderful. This is one of those life adventures that you'll be able to tell your children about for the 900th time while they roll their eyes.

I hope you do what makes you happy. (And gets you one badass law degree.) If you ever need to talk it out, you know how to get in touch with me. I'm in your metaphorical boat. We can do this!

Love.
