But I Did It, Though.

“No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life,” -Friedrich Nietzsche We get the privilege to choose how we build our bridge in life.

Possibility

The search for the best undergrad program to get a BA in Psychology that fits my lifestyle continues. I spent this morning talking to three different schools and just felt so defeated.
