\u201cI turn the music up,\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a very anxious past few weeks, I have started to find peace within myself again. This peace has coincidentally lined up with a week of unseasonably warm and sunny weather in Ann Arbor. Seeing the sun and not being freezing every time I step outside has been very healing (even though I\u2019m not happy to know that this is climate change at work). The change in my internal attitude and the external weather has prompted me to listen to some of the music that makes me feel happiest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI got my records on.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coldplay is my go-to happy band, another band that my mom and I have connected through. When listening to their upbeat songs, I can\u2019t help but feel energized and grateful. Walking around campus with this music in my ears and the sun on my face has been fantastic, and to make things even better, this week I got accepted into grad school!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFrom underneath the rubble sing a rebel song.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter how dreary and anxious I may feel, this week proves that those feelings aren\u2019t permanent. The sun does come back out \u2013 metaphorically and literally. It\u2019s the moments of stress and anxiety and sadness that allow me to be even more grateful for the happy and love-filled moments that I am fortunate enough to experience. Life goes on, and regardless of how I may feel in a moment, in my experience, life remains a beautiful, exciting thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDon’t want to see another generation drop.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, though life ebbs and flows, I\u2019m thrilled to feel like I\u2019m starting the journey back to my usual positive self \u2013 I feel more at peace that way. I\u2019m looking forward to the nice weather this weekend and spending time outside in Ann Arbor with some of my closest friends. Here\u2019s to more acceptance, growth, and positivity this semester!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
