I've Learned It's Ok To Cry

Sometimes in life you get so caught up in what you're doing that you forget about everything else. This happens in Cre Comm....especially during the time of the magazine project. I spent probably about 40 hours at school this week and considering we weren't actually at school Tuesday - Friday, that's quite a long time.

We're down to the wire on our magazine and I'll admit the stress of that and other life events were starting to get to me. I ate a lot of chocolate covered jube jubes, cried a bit, and was tempted several times to throw my computer out the window. If you're thinking 'really it's just a school project' well you are very wrong. This is a life changing project, a 'take over your entire life' project, a very time consuming, stress increasing, crazy project. I will be so happy when it's all over, granted I had fun along the way. I will definitely be happy to have something for my portfolio but it took a lot of stress and chocolate to get there.

If I've learned anything throughout this project, it's that I really have the best Cre Comm family anyone could ask for. No matter how many times I was stressed or had to cry because I couldn't fix something, there was always someone there to offer a hug or words of encouragement. I'm forever thankful for all of the support I've had, especially from Sarah, Sara, Braiden, and Megan. Where I'd be without you guys right now, I have no idea. This past weekend was a bit insane in my life and for the people who got me through it, I am and will be forever grateful.

I know that there will be a lot more stress ahead and life events that are out of my control, but I'm happy to know that I have the best friends and family that will get me through anything. I promised myself I wouldn't make any sappy blog posts and I realize now I kind of broke that rule but it is what it is. Sometimes you just gotta cry.

I wanna dedicate my post this week to my Grandma Wirth. Your words of encouragement have got me this far, and will continue to guide me through the future. <3
