I’m feeling overwhelmed with classwork and missing out on the fun activities happening around me. That’s the bottom line. I’m stuck doing assignments while there’s so much going on. Right now, I have an important test coming up on Monday, so I’m here in my hotel room studying while everyone else is enjoying themselves.
It’s my boyfriend’s birthday today, so I don’t want to sound negative; that wouldn’t be fair. Still, it feels good to share how I’m feeling.
It’s completely understandable to feel that way, especially when you’re trying to balance important responsibilities with social experiences. It’s tough to miss out on celebrating with your boyfriend, but remember that you’re making a big investment in your education right now. Your hard work will pay off in the long run. Maybe you could find a way to celebrate with him later, or even take a short break to join in on the fun for a little while before getting back to studying? It’s all about balance, and it’s okay to express how you’re feeling. You’re doing your best, and that’s what counts!
