angry

December 2, 2019 Courtney

“You’re not the same person you were a year ago, a month ago, or a week ago. You’re always growing. Experiences don’t stop. That’s life. And the very experiences that seem so hard when you’re going through them are the ones you’ll look back on with gratitude for how far you’ve come” I’d be lying… Continue reading Rocks and Feathers

January 8, 2019February 2, 2019 Courtney

Today is my last "first day" of a new term in Graduate school.
