I refuse to accept a new normal. I mean, I have made changes to my lifestyle - mainly around sleeping and having accomodations at school to turn things in late. But I had the opportunity to study in Cairo and I went for it. I'm here right now, living my dream to study Arabic. This is coming from someone who spent weeks and weeks in hospital many times in the past few years. At least for me, it's possible to live the life I want. I just need to pay attention to my basics: sleep, food, stable routine.
