2 months down

Honestly, I can't believe that two months have passed since I started therapy. I only have four more months till I can resubmit my papers. :) Sometimes I don't feel like this is even real.
The last two months have been the biggest roller coaster. Most recently I've had moments where I was completely jealous of people who said they had their call or those who say "on my mission".
Which I ended up turning to my best friend who is serving his mission in Philly right now. I just didn't know what to do. I felt like I wasn't doing my best, that I was a complete slacker because I wasn't on a mission. But of course Elder Danner reminded me that there is a reason I am here at this current time. Which he is so right because I'm learning things that I wouldn't learn if I wasn't here.
I came to realize that I had forgotten the things I had already learned when first entering this lesson of my life. But when you are slacking off on the "simple" things you forget what you already know.
I can't explain how important it is to remember the "primary answers" for those of you who aren't part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints I'll explain what that means.
Primary answers are the don't forget to say your daily prayers, make sure you read your scriptures daily, remember the basic principles of the church. Click here if you have more questions about the "mormons" or LDS church.
Other than that I've done really well. Therapy is really going, I can say I've learned how to manage my anxiety pretty well since the first month was all about identify your anxiety.
My first block of summer classes is almost done. I have two weeks left, than I head into second block. Which I'm looking forward too. A LOT.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
