Celebration of accomplishments.

" Growing up isn't always measured by your age or physical appearance it's sometimes measured by your accomplishment." I love to see those around me accomplish what they work hard for. Those who give their all to something to prove to themselves that they are capable of pushing their bodies and intellectualism to the maximum. November 18th 2017, I was honored to participate in my good friend's graduation at Carlton University. I unfortunately was unable to make it to the ceremony but I made it on time enough to watch her walk through the doors as she and her fellow graduates were being clapped for in regards of their accomplishments.

So fatigue, dehydration and loss of appetite have been a battle this year but it's also because, the month of July just started off on the wrong foot. Yes, I kept going places and keeping myself busy, but it's genuinely because I was mentally declining and running away was the best option.  July was full of bliss but also full of heartache and I couldn't compartmentalize, so I did everything at once until I crashed. What's the famous quote every dangerous stunts performed on live tv say: " DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME " results may very and mine almost sent me into a full mental break down. I also wasn't helping my situation. I didn't feel sorry for myself.  Until the famous day, when I found myself in my room and realizing, I keep coming back to the same place and facing myself.
