    Good luck :) try to fall into a self care routine. Every morning I’m journaling, meditating, and eating breakfast.

    Make use of every support service available to you, especially the college’s own one. Basically just set up multiple safety nets to ensure that no matter how bad it gets, you never end up flunking.
