I'm back in school

It took all of two days to accomplish

I feel proud, and relieved.

I'll be able to get out of the shelter

I won't have to worry about beds filling up and having to walk all night for fear of falling asleep in temperatures bellow zero

There were a few nights of sleeping on benches, bus stops

There were many nights of grieving someone I loved for a long time

And all that I lost because of them

But now it's all so clear

I am going back too my institution

And I am going to get a ton of money

And be extremely successful

And have a second degree

The first was a BA in psychology

This one will be BS in computer science (or computer engineering... I haven't decided)

What if by this time next week I have my own apartment? A car? And air fryer? A car?

I made everything better so quickly

I'm astounded I didn't do it sooner

It only took two fucking days.
