Thanks for your message – It’s always nice to know that you aren’t alone in the world. I’m glad things are turning up for you – it sounds like your trip to China was amazing. I know what you mean about getting over a break up – I’m still trying and its been over a year.

I hope you will feel better soon. I felt the way you did for about 3 months recently: I couldn’t get any of my school work done, have any desire to do my favorite things or work on my senior thesis even though I was super behind. I continued wallowing in my misery for a long time and just wanted to put off my work to finish up during the summer. But eventually you’ll get through it all no matter how difficult or impossible it seems at the time. In the last 3 weeks of the term, my professors and my friends really encouraged me to just push through it all and it was a mad scramble to the finish line. I am glad that I did though because being able to graduate and celebrate with my classmates was priceless. You will feel the same way after you finish the MCATs.

I just came back from a 3 week trip to China with my best friend yesterday and I had a great time. It is nice to get away from school for awhile after all the breakup drama for the past few months. At least, he is definitely not on my mind constantly anymore. I stopped returning his phone calls/emails because trying to be his friend makes me miserable. Hopefully I’ll be able to move on soon.

Keep hanging in there,
Kara
