I didn’t expect to be asked to learn how to code the summer before starting Minerva, either––none of us did, I think. It’s kind of crazy, hmm?

I love this line of yours: “I want to be gentle with myself but firm with my ambitions.” That’s my goal for the new year, too (although you put it much better than I could!), with supposedly even harder classes and a new city to explore. Let’s work through this year together with this as our motto, and I think we’ll not only be alright, but flourish!

Thank you for this beautiful letter! I’m sure I’ll see you in one facebook group or another real soon. :)

Cheers,
