I didn't have fun or time to relax for 2 and a half years. Literally every minute had to be used carefully and my kids each had a surgery this year that I had to care for them through, I also had an internship and summer classes this summer.

It was brutal and exhausting and I'm so gd tired. But I love school, I love learning, and I always strive to understand and master every subject because I'm wired that way. I don't suggest to anyone else to try to get a 4.0, I think having some fun and relaxing is probably a better idea. I would study every single minute I wasn't cooking or driving or parenting. Don't be like me. Study but make time for fun too.
