Mostly For My Own Remembrance..

So spring semester 2012 was pretty rough.  I took 17 credits....and they weren't cake classes.  I had physiology and a lab, chemistry and a lab, 3 nutrition classes, and then the gym class.  A lot of stuff there.  Anyway, I knew my grades weren't going to be as good as I wanted them to be.  I got my first C+... and then a bunch of B+s and the rest were As.  My GPA ended up being a 3.32 (I've never gotten below a 3.8 so you could imagine the blow this took ha).  If they were all As or A-s I'd be so ecstatic.. But they aren't, and you know what, I'm okay with it actually.  I tried really hard and studied lots and I did learn a lot although not all my grades necessarily reflect that.
What I'm most proud of this last semester though is that I struggled through a lot spiritually.  And I got through it.  Now I'm happier, stronger, and just a better person because of it all.  And if my academic side of life suffered a bit because of that, it's okay.  I can accept that and just be proud of who I am right here, right now.  I'm grateful for the trials I had and the lessons I learned.  I'm also thankful for my friends and bishop who helped me work through them.  I love them all sooo much!
