0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome back to the Gen Z Girl podcast. My name is Abby Asselin and I am the host of this podcast. It is currently 1am on Monday morning the day this episode goes live. It literally goes live in six hours and I'm just now recording it. Do I look like I have poor time management skills or what? I promise I don't't this has just literally been probably the busiest |
0:23.9 | time of my life in college like it's up there with like the top two times i would say like i'm trying |
0:30.6 | to recall other times i've been this busy but like i straight up have not had you know any time |
0:36.4 | to just like lay down and chill and rest |
0:38.7 | and it's really been getting to me I have been going going and going and going and |
0:43.9 | studying and studying for so long um ever since like a week and four or five days ago maybe |

1:49.1 | and I can can't even like do even average on a corporate tax test. But I'm trying to give myself |
1:55.3 | some grace and remember that it was the first one. I did my best and that's simply that. |
2:01.7 | Like there's literally nothing more I could do since I gave it my all and did my best. |
