I'm looking forward to hopefully getting my p's and I hoping to start working out again. I'm worried that I will be able to go back the routine of going to university and some learn I'm going to apply are taking time for myself

Re: Live GR: Bringing in the New Year (Wednesday the 30th of December, 7:30pm AEST)
@lost_Space_Explorer5 I have a lot of the same fears as you, during the year, if you figure out anything that works, let me know! I think next year I'm going to return to doing things that I did in my first years of high school, I just remember being really happy in those times so I'm going to try to return to some of those habits like reading more, less time on my phone and see how I go, but I definitely want to try to be more present. I'm sorry I don't have any tips for how you could see it differently.

Re: Live GR: Bringing in the New Year (Wednesday the 30th of December, 7:30pm AEST)
What are some things in 2021 you’re looking forward to or wanting to achieve? Is there something you’re not looking forward to or worried about? How might you apply any lessons you learnt in 2020 to approach these hopes and fears?
I'm looking forward to advancing further in my career. But on the other hand, I've been struggling with the long hours. I'm also worried about my grandma as she's been in hospital twice this year and she's approaching 90. This was how the end was for my great grandmother, so next year could be her last. It's hard when grandparents get older and more frail. As my sister is still unwell, she might not be able to attend any funerals if something happens to my grandparents, so we will have to arrange for someone to be with her. I've also interviewed with four universities for postgraduate places, but I haven't heard anything back from them. I've been told that no news is good news but I feel like I should have heard back at this point. Oh well, at least I have a job now.
I'm also hoping that my parathyroid hormone levels go back to normal and that I don't need to have surgery on my parathyroid glands. My parents kind of just thought the worst though.
Something I have learned this year is that I can be flexible if things don't go my way or if I don't succeed in something. I know I am qualified and capable. I can bring so much to other people. I have taken a 'whatever will be, will be' approach to life and been more accepting of whatever life throws at me. I think of how I've overcome over challenges in the past.

@Lost_Space_Explorer5 I hope you can get through the last semester! I remember I had so many plans after graduating from uni, but things didn't go the way I hoped. It was tough, but I really like the job I have now. I also try to take things a day at a time. I've found that really helpful as a carer.
