The new me?

I have to be honest, since school ended I have felt a little lost.  Not sure who I am anymore.  You take on this identity for a couple of years of being a student and then it just ends.  I was tired, stressed, and a bit grumpy for an exteded period of time.  Those are not words I would have used to describe myself before.  Can you forget how to be yourself or is this the new me?  I hope not!  Believe it or not people I used to be a bit extroverted, spontaneous, and positive.  Or was this just in my mind...now I'm not sure.

  1. I know what you mean... it's like, you're so excited for it to end and to be done and then it does and your like, okay this is strange.
    Congratulations on finishing!
    I hope you get a little more 'you' time now! Make it happen. :)

  2. When I graduated with my Master's, it took me a long time to find myself. I'd been a student all my life up to that point! It may take a little while, but I bet you'll rediscover the extroverted, spontaneous and positive person. That's the cousin I've always known! :)

  3. I hear ya sister. It gets harder and harder to meld all the different "roles" we seem to play throughout life- in my opinion anyway. But you are the unsinkable Lara Parker (Waite) to me, and you'll bounce back to your fun-loving self in no time I bet. If not, I recommend sky diving!
