My letter to the president..



President Obama:

There is no way that I have lost hope in you! I still have faith that you are the change that America is in need of! But I am afraid that you have lost yourself a bit. I know that you have inherited quiet a mess. My only concern is that you have lost some or your spunk! Where is that feisty senator from Illinois that took no crap! What happened? I understand that you took on one of, if not, the toughest job in the country! But I feel that this new complacent, let's make everyone happy attitude is not working for you. I didn't miss class and stand in line for hours to make sure my vote was counted in order for you to just let things happen! Bring back the fight Mr. President. I know now that things are going to be harder because the House and Senate are no longer in your corner. But this means your fight has to be tougher, your bite just that much harder! Whenever you're down just remember that under the bludgeonings of chance your head is bloody but unbowed. Because it matters not how straight the gate or how charged with the punishments the scroll. YOU are the Master of your fate YOU are the captain of your soul!

Sincerely:

Still an Obama supporter!

Could you Speak up? I can't hear you.

I have always had difficulty standing up for myself or voicing my voice as the young folks say. Speaking my mind and expressing my thoughts and ideas terrifies me. I'm not confident in my opinions and often worry that I'm wrong. These thoughts are only heightened by my ever present anxiety. I'm constantly overthinking and concerned that no one wants to hear what I have to say. To me, my thoughts don't matter to anyone other than myself. My voice often shakes and gets quiet when I'm trying to express myself. I am either worried that my opinions will harm/offend or will go unnoticed. There are several moments over the course of my life where I regret not speaking up or saying something that was on my mind. There is a constant internal struggle that happens every time I faced with a moment to express myself. More often than not, I end up silencing myself. Which I can openly admit has done nothing for me.  All I ended up with was a nagging regret that I should have sa...

#RoadToCandidacy

The moment you've all been waiting for, or maybe not, either way it's here!! As of today at 7:44 am my Qualifying Exams are underway!! That's right, for the next 2 months I will be on locked down writing at least 60 pages in response to 3 questions. Send me snacks, love, luck, motivation, and things to do for fun times (because baby girl will need a break)! Hopefully my depression and anxiety are willing to work with me. With that I am off to get started on Question #1! #RoadToCandidacy

You Passed

Remember when I said that I was going to be more diligent about posting and keeping everyone updated on what was happening? Yeah, I don't remember that either. As of September 5, 2017, I am officially a PhD Candidate. That means that I sufficiently convinced my three person committee (all women might I add) that I know what I'm talking about and am somehow capable of writing a dissertation. This a HUGE deal. Anyone who has gone through, started or completed any amount of work towards a doctorate knows just how stressful this portion of the program is. There are actually no words that will sufficiently explain how large this achievement is. *As you can tell, this post is LATE. And I do mean late. I've been a candidate for months now. Forgive me.*
