Starting Off On The Right Foot (#255)

Tomorrow marks my first day of my last year of graduate school. I may go back for a doctorate but for now, I’m simply thinking about starting tomorrow off on the right foot.

I’ve made it this far and I’m grateful that I have. My education is a privilege and I didn’t get here alone.
