Color palette orange and pink.

22 and graduated with my B.S. Holy lord. Mostly just mentally preparing for what is to come, and planning out the execution of my major life plan. Keeping my nerves under control. Remaining calm. I am supposed to figure out what to do with my life now. I am supposed to find opportunities, and ways to make my dreams come true. Getting a Bachelor’s is definitely one of the things that I had dreamed of. Being a scientists is a dream come true. However, I want to actually see my work reflected in my life. I want to see the reality of my goals in my daily life. I want to see how my aspirations become a reality in the world and I am exactly the student, working professional, traveler and scientists that I envision myself to be. There are many options for college students to engage in after graduation. I just have to choose one of them and carry it out, create my career and live my dreams as the free human being that God has made me. 

It has been three months since we started 2018. This is my last semester, my 8th and then there will come some more years of work and some thousands of loans that I have to repay. I have enjoyed my education, I have learned extensively I have been through some yers of tough lessons. I feel satisfied with how I have been focusing, however I think I could have been working harder, more diligently toward my career. What I mean by this is, I could have bee taking more meaningful trips to the library. Realizing that life is a trip and were relive our past experiences, the people we have loved, and that I live the present moment of my past decisions; I think I had to have been working harder toward my goals. I think that coming to the verge of my college career and the point where I am to jump into the professional world, I have to get very serious about spending my every day and energy working toward that place where I need to be. Being that for the people that I most want, and praying hard to God, that he illuminated my way, both with people and opportunities. 

This past month has been refreshing. A lot of new things have happened, I got to leave Reno for two weeks, out of the entire year lol... but it was so necessary. I saw my family members which was also necessary and really fulfilling, I went to Red Rock Canyon, and Lake Tahoe. It was so nice to be outside for a while and do some big hikes that I will always remember. I have been going places, drinking coffee, breathing fresh air, and most importantly taking a break from school. I am excited for the classes I will be taking. To learn some new material and become an even better psychologist. I am happy to see my friends again and go on some new adventures with them. I am happy about what I experienced this winter break. I saw the amazing Las Vegas fireworks for the New Year, I have been super active and family involved. I've been on so many road trips in the past month, I needed it. I will be moving soon, just apartments, but it is still a significant switch. I have been living in my current house for two years, and I need a new environment as well as cleanliness and freshness. A new year and a new beginning. I think this will be good for my grades, although I’ve already raised them significantly, I think a change will help me raise them even more. I will be able to enjoy studying in my new place, there is a lot of light, and air around there. Back in Reno, and although the come back might feel scary, it might bring really good things. Specially money >.<
