Do you fit in?

Journal pages – April 22nd –

I had a breakdown moment last weekend and I really wanted to share about that with you, guys. Living abroad is the most rewarding thing in life but also the most changeling one. You might be asking why?…

Since I moved to the US, my life changed completely and you have no idea how many times I have asked myself if I really belong to where I am. Because:

  • I am still not able to say if I like Chicago because I literally did not have ANY time to explore the city;
  • I am still not able to say if I enjoy my master’s program because I just feel overwhelmed with assignments all the time;
  • I am still not able to say what I want to do next because honestly, right now I am just not GOOD at anything at school.

All of these feelings led to lots of frustration that I was not even able to understand and express in words. In the past weeks, I just wanted to cry! I might seem to dramatic (I am a bit of a dram queen) BUTTT honestly, who likes to do something when you know you are not good at it? Who likes to feel uncomfortable over and over again? No one! No one likes to fail…
