It's simply amazing the way that a week can change a mindset. Re-reading my last post, I can say that I am in a much better place right now. Between finishing my Law Review note, breaking the two-week weightloss plateau, and making it to Spring Break, among others, I feel rejuvenated. For the first time this semester, I didn't go to Shabbat this week and instead went out with a bunch of friends to the infamous White Horse (a.k.a White Ho). After spending so many weekends not going out, I think I forgot how much fun it is to just hang out and chat with people - especially people that you don't see often. Unsurprisingly, there are some incredible people here. In addition to the fun (and sometimes serious) conversations, I was pleasantly surprised that people noticed my weightloss. Although this journey is entirely about me getting healthier and looking more like the way I feel, it is incredibly rewarding for people to notice the progress that you've made.
In reflecting upon this week and the questions posed in my post from last week, I may not be able to describe exactly what I want and may not always know where I fit in, I can say this: to some extent, being and causing others to be happy is an essential purpose of my life. I was really happy last night, and I hope that I caused some people to be happy. :)
Gotta go get ready for my high school-style sleepover tonight. More on that later.
Besito,
A
