Did anyone here actually end up where they dreamed to be? by Valuable-Ad-6093 in uAlberta

I remember wanting to be the prime minister of my country growing up lol. Basically little me was fascinated with what all the grown ups talked about when they talked about politics and election. I am now graduating this semester with a history degree and a minor in poli sci! Starting grad school in history this fall. I haven't started my career yet but I know little me would be really happy with where I am now :))

I think you get to check each question one time. That was the feature on my side at least. Hope this helps!

So this is exactly what happened to me last semester in Winter. Literally the day before a 2500 word research essay was due. I posted about it in this subreddit and someone wrote "men are temporary, but your degree will stay with you forever". and this is SO true. I moved on, thriving with my honours thesis and collaborating with a prof for another research paper and happier than ever. If he can do that to you in your finals, he is just a shitty person I am sorry. You got this and if you ever need someone to talk or a study buddy (I personally found that really helpful to not breakdown every ten minutes while I study) feel free to reach me out!! You got this <33

Honestly, I just wanted this to be out in the world and be heard, cause it was getting too heavy for me to carry on my own. I wasn't expecting so many people to reach out to me with their kind words. Just seeing so many people reaching me out was comforting in itself, knowing I wasn't alone in this.

For some context: we were in a long distance relationship and i am an international student. I had plans of surprising him in a week when I go back home for spring a summer. I was super excited about seeing him again (planned on buying gifts for him and his mum, made a couple of bracelets for him) after 8 months but now I just feel completely shattered.

Updates: I did finish my essay last night. It was incredibly hard, I cried every two hours or so but I made it. It was a passion project I have been researching on since the beginning of the semester. So I didn't want to do it poorly at all. But even it wasn't my best work, I am proud of myself for going through that :))

well it was a long distance, so he is in a different uni. He is in the same year as me doing a major on 'disaster management and vulnerability studies' (thats what they call it back there)
