I never even post on here, but today I just have a lot of feelings. This morning I got admitted to the University of Texas at Austin. I still can’t really believe it. I’ve cried so many happy tears today and it’s not just about getting accepted. You see, I used to know that I could do and be anything I wanted, but somewhere along the way I forgot that. After high school, I let my life go to shit. I lost all my ambition, hopes and dreams.I did some serious damage to my GPA my freshman year in college. My life consisted of either getting drunk or high (which I still do in moderation). But even though my life spiraled out of control, I can’t say I regret it because I had a lot of learning experiences that made me into the very person that’s writing this. A person I can truly say I’m proud to be.This year I declared myself a bio major. I can’t begin to explain my passion for it. Although, I’ve had too many sleepless nights and mental breakdowns, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Every aspect of it is fascinating. Also, I started running a lot again.I think it’s the only way I’ve been able to stay sane through all the stress. I can’t believe I ever stopped.The satisfaction it gives me doesn’t compare to anything in this world .If I could run forever, I really think I would. I’m really, truly, genuinely happy with my life right now and I love all the amazing people that have helped me get to this point.
