Well I
know I said I would try and post once a month, and it's already the end of
January. It’s been a hectic month…between
wrapping up the holidays, starting school again, and the Polar Vortex which we are starting to
experience again, I'm behind.
I've
made some big decisions this month....they have been very hard decisions to
make, but I feel they are "right" decisions. Due to many different issues I have been
facing, my parents and I feel that it is in my best interest to switch to our
school's online program. The reasons are due to stress, my health, and
unreliable care needs. This was not an
easy decision to make, and I know I will be missing out on a lot of different
things. I will also miss a lot of
people, but my health, care needs, and happiness are more important and home is
a safe place. To some of you this may be
a surprise that this year, as well as last has been challenging, while to
others, you may have sensed my struggles.
I may
try and become a commuter in the Fall, but right now this seems to be the best
decision for me. I love what the Woods has
to offer and stands for. Lately the
quote that I have come up with is “You can take the girl out of the Woods, but
you can’t take the Woods out of the girl!”
I still plan to graduate from SMWC, it just may not be how or when I
thought I would, and that’s okay! I’m doing what is best for me at this current
time. As I make this transition, I would
appreciate your prayers.
