Welcome back everyone! Though the spring semester at USG hasn’t quite started just yet, the blog is back in business. How has everyone’s winter break been so far? This winter break, I spent the holiday season walking around DC, and was able to see the National Christmas Tree. It was a beautiful sight, and for those who have not seen it yet, I definitely recommend it for Christmas 2020! 

Already we have stepped foot into 2020, a year for me that holds so much weight as it is finally the year I graduate. It settles me into reality that yes, a new stage of life is approaching and I need to be prepared every step of the way. At the same time, it’s bittersweet how my life as a student at USG will also be coming to an end, as I loved every moment with the amazing students here. Maybe it’s because it’s a whole new year, but the fact settles in even more deeply than before.

Regardless, it is better to keep moving forward than to look back, so I wish everyone the most success on whichever path they embark on in 2020! And please remember, that it is always alright to take a break, to take some time for yourself both mentally and physically. It isn’t worth it to keep pushing when either your mind or body cannot take it. The pace doesn’t matter, so keep moving forward fellow USG students! 

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and happy new year!
