Without a doubt 2009 was one of the most challenging one for me. Come to think of it, it was perhaps THE toughest year of my life. In second place was 2005, but that's another story best left for another time.
What made 2009 so difficult?
The year started off with lots of undue stress and pressure from school. The first four months took everything out of me. At the end of that semester I was left with a couple of B grades and a whole new condition known as panic attacks.
Summer '09 saw me quitting my full-time job and moving to a cheaper place. While this living situation appeared to be great at the beginning, it was not what I had expected. It was less than ideal but at least school was going a little better.
Fall '09 went by with such a blur I can't even remember most of it. Oh yes, practicum 1 started and once again panic attacks lingered. It still does. If you've ever had a panic attack you'll know how exhausting it can be. I remembered a GP offering to prescribe some medication after having talked to me for 5 minutes but alas, I refused.
In a sense 2009 was a year gone without any event of great significance. It was a year sacrificed to school and a piece of paper.
Men came and went, ones whom I am no longer in contact with even. But alas, what is a girl to do.
