Your avatar What is happening in your life? Question
03/15/21 12:20 PM CDT
Arun Patel I just try really hard to take things a day at a time. School is so much and teaching is
really demanding. I'm trying to write a screenplay on top of it. It feels like I don't have very much control
of my life. I'm always trying to fit everything I have to do into my schedule, and I don't always feel sure I
can do it. I know I can now, but things just get so hard.
Arun Patel Thank you.

what I'm in school for myself, as if I'm some expert. It's fine, though.
Arun Patel Alright. I get it.
