Starting college 02 Apr 2025 20:15 #434060

Started taking classes in the evenings. Couldn’t go to touro because they do not offer what I am majoring in. It’s a culture shock for me. Not used to being in mixed classes or taught by women. Having a difficult time adjusting and dealing with the nisyonos.

That is hard.

It helped me to find a mentor and check in regularly.

Hatzlacha
Today is yesterday's tomorrow.
The yetzarim a person has the most trouble dealing with are his most powerful God-given tools for developing his potential and achieving shleimus.
It doesn't matter how big the number is, only that today it is going up by one.

Feeling for you... Its hard being in a situation when you know you're going into a nisoyon.
But, on the other hand, you know you're going into a nisoyon, so go in battle ready!

Maybe make some gedarim/rules for yourself?

"You can leave in peace, or you can leave piece by piece" ~ Unknown university professor

"Why take a slice, if you can have the whole entire thing"  ~ Mr Pickle 

Hey! Have you ever seen a talking yerushalmi kugel?
