Crying is Therapeutic

I cry for everything. Seriously. I cry when I'm happy, when I'm sad, when I'm mad, when I'm stressed, when I'm excited.

Crying is seriously therapeutic. And, I definitely can turn on the water works. I cried today cuz I was listening to Michael Buble's song "Home." It made me miss home... so of course, I had to cry. Whenever I have a whole bunch of exams (like the horror that is this week), I really miss home. My year off from school was very relaxed and I enjoyed being home even though I wasn't really doing much. Now I'm off to do bigger and better things... but for the most part, I'm alone as I do it. So even though I feel very lucky to be going to such a great dental school and being on my way to achieve my dreams, I can't help but feel a little bit homesick.

I'm glad I'm here. I'm glad I'm given the opportunity to earn my D.M.D. degree. I've waited for this opportunity for such a long time. :-D But, I think it's okay to still feel homesick.
