Senior year has been such a stressful time in my life because of endless college essays and recurring headaches. After being dormant for a few years, my headaches have recently started up again. I have never allowed these health problems to affect my daily activities, and my optimistic attitude always battles against the headaches.Although this is disconcerting, I rely on my optimism, believing God is working through the medication I take to fully heal me. In this case, optimism allows me to focus on my faith and put my trust in God through this adversity. On top of this, I am in full “college application mode,” writing my essays and completing various forms. Ever since freshman year, I have envisioned myself at Harvard, one of the most prestigious universities in the world. My hope and optimism towards this goal drives my actions in school and brings me a positive life. Optimism cannot end at hoping for the best; it must have passion and action behind it in order to bring the best vision into reality. In the end, Staying positive and pushing away overwhelming emotions is tough, but staying bright and optimistic allows me to be a positive example for myself and those around
