So funny life update, I'm graduating soon. finally!
I'm 19 ill be 20 in June. I should have graduated in 2024/2025, depending on how quickly I could catch up with my peers after my mental health issues caused me to become physically ill for so long, that I failed my freshman year.
So I started taking online classes, which worked out great. I was finally in an environment where I could actually focus without the need for medication, which I would build up a tolerance to after 2 months. My mental health soared, and so did my physical (to an extent, genetic disorders are a bitch), all that is to say, I should have graduated by now.
But I have not, you see, there was this small teeny tiny itty bitty problem. For three years, the people in charge of scheduling online students for their finals repeatedly messed up my scheduling. They incorrectly scheduled me for the wrong month, placed me in a school too far to drive to, and even forgot to email my parent or me about the arrangements.
I've felt stuck, unable to get a job, and struggling to focus on anything without feeling guilty or like a disappointment. However, a few months ago, my parent and I finally had enough of these issues, and after a lot of back and forth, we successfully got them to schedule my finals correctly. I took my last exam yesterday.
Now that I have one less problem hanging over me, I plan to post more, as long as I don’t start procrastinating again. I had to bully myself into finishing my writing the last time.
Sincerely, your sleep-deprived author.
