Tomie Mari
New Here
I used to struggle all through my academic career... until last Fall '10.
My first semester, in the spring, was a disaster--I'd convinced myself that I could handle everything on my own, my own stubborn sense of pride taking over and clouding my better judgment. I started counseling again just to realize that only time for myself could soothe the stress and relieve me of my own self-defeating behaviors. And finally I could see the bigger picture.
I came out of Fall 2010 with a shining 3.75 GPA, made it to the Dean's list and enlisted in the Honors Program =) I'm super excited and can't wait to challenge myself in new & different ways.
