it's been a while...
my life seems to be moving faster than i want it to lately. this semester is already halfway over. we're halfway to christmas. between gamma sig, gamedays, tutoring at barrow, service projects, classes, projects and aerobics classes, i feel like i wake up and never stop going until it's time to go to bed. but how do you slow things down? how do you tell your previous engagements that you need a minute to look out the window? even watching tv doesn't seem like a respite anymore. it just leads to another hour gone and done with. i feel so weighed down. the weekend doesn't seem like a break anymore. it just seems like another list of things i need to complete. and when i get those precious moments of time, i'm not exactly sure what to do with them. i just force myself to find something to do. that certainly can't be healthy. that isn't the person i want to be. maybe it's just a few busy weeks. things will slow down. or will they? are we in charge of slowing ourselves down or is some other power? i don't know. but i do know that it's 10 pm which means according to my schedule i should be in bed in about an hour. i'll wake up at 7:15 and start another day..and keep going. because you can't just stop. you have to keep going.
enough ranting. i'm looking forward to fall break. in fact, i'm totally stoked about it. florida, here i come. less than 3 weeks to go...
