One of my favorite events was a painting night where my roommates and I painted canvases and socialized with other Bio Sci Scholars. At first I was very hesitant to attend the event since this took place during a very stressful time in the semester for me. However, I enjoyed the company of my roommates and friends at the event and found the painting very therapeutic. I learned that I do not always have to be studying or doing homework and not only was this break much needed, I also was more productive throughout the rest of the weekend. I put pressure on myself to continuously study but I forget that is it just as important to take time for yourself.
