Do what you've got to do

Last quarter I felt so overwhelmed by my class-load. I let not only the pressures of school get to me but, also pressures like my parents, my boyfriend, and friends get to me. I got to the point where I was so fed up with everything I felt like I needed a break from it all.

At this point I looked into traveling abroad in another country for a year. The countries that particularly caught my attention were Argentina, and Spain. Starting to see that I really could end up going I started to get really excited. 

Unfortunately, six months later, here I am, not in a foreign country. But do you want to really know why I am here? Because I let something so small like an opinion of someone else tell me I shouldn't go. That's it. Stupid decision right? 

Essentially, the point I am trying to make here is, do what you have to do for yourself, and do not let anyone else influence you. Doing these things will bring you happiness and life experience.
