Time is of the essence

Aug 16, 2007 09:33

As of recently I have been spending more time alone, which is not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation. I have to admit that it was kind of hard at first, especially since I had felt my friends were neglecting me. But to be honest, I'm really a person of extremes when it comes to social relationships and groups; I can do both, be someone who's constantly with people with little time alone, or be virtually alone except for work and the gym, it's just the transitional stage that's hard for me.

There's a good reason though, most of my friends have graduated and have left Santa Barbara, I got into an conflict with one of my close friends who will not talk to me, and I work quite a bit. I log in about 20 hours a week working in the school computer labs, and another 18 hours on Saturdays and Sundays at the Wine Cask kitchen. Then add in the fact that I spend 1.5-2 hours (sometimes 3 hours) Monday thru Friday at the boxing gym, there's not too much time left in a day to go out. Not having a car and having to rely on public transportation is also a limiting factor.

There's never enough time to do everything I want. Now if only I could do something like Joshua did and stop the rotation of the Earth to the sun...

time, friends
