Dear end-of-the-semester me,

I just want to say congrats you made it. I know this was probably one long semester that probably felt like forever but at the end of the day you made it and I am proud of you for that. I know things have probably have gotten a lot harder ever since the first day and your probably very very tired after all this but remember all this will be worth it especially in the long run. By the time this semester ends and by the time your reading this you have just recently turned 18. Life hopefully has gotten better from this point and no matter what situation your in hopefully this helps you and remind you to keep going no matter how hard things get.

And if you need more motivation hopefully this gives you the motivation to keep going because i know you want to comeback here one day and working hard will.

Optimistic. After the chaos of the past few years because of the pandemic, I am ready for what lies ahead. For the past couple of years mainly most of my classes have been online which is something i never got used to as I prefer to learn in person rather then online. I am excited and a bit nervous about this upcoming semester as college is a lot harder then high school but I am ready to do everything I can to achieve my goal which is to get get my degree and become an electrical engineer.

This image means a lot to me as is a place in a country where my family is from Guatemala. I want to go back again for vacation as I had a great time there and hopefully I get to go back there soon.
