If you were able to read my past journal entries, you know that I've been through difficulties. But this week, I can finally say that I'm recovering from all the setbacks. After all that's what happened, I'm now regaining a positive outlook towards my education, future, and life in general.

The wellness break has passed and if I just want to share that I've utilized it to give myself some rest while also being productive at times with my research team. I was able to contribute to my team even though it is wellness break. I think that is the decision I've made this week that stuck with me, along with deciding that I need  to improve my situation and not get stuck in the loop of being sad always due to personal challenges

I also treated my sister and mother to a simple dinner this week as a token of appreciation for always being there to support me all the time. I've been always thankful for their existence and without them I may not have survived through the challenges.
