No, this won't be a sad song
No rehearsal for me tonight and I am basking in the free time! "Crazy for You" rehearsals have been fun so far. We rehearse pretty frequently - there are rehearsals every day but Thursday oddly enough. Friday was the Learn to Lead seminar I held for club presidents to learn about fundraising, designing websites, and paperwork they have to submit to SGA. It went well and I've heard positive feedback. It's obviously not the most invigorating event ever, but it covered what I wanted and went smoothly. I wound up speaking three times myself. I had focused most of my time and energy into planning the event itself so I didn't prepare hardcore for my speeches, but I was talking about the things I'm doing and thinking about every day and I don't have a problem with public speaking. It's a relief to be over though, because that and the Activities Fair were two huge events for the Club Affairs Council right off the bat. I'm in the process of filling the few spots left on my council. Amy Kate has been such a fun, reliable assistant VP, and Katie McSassy has helped me tremendously with recruiting good people. It's great that we can work together so often (she's on my council, plus the musical, Singers and Singers board) and still be great friends outside of it all. I love her within the contexts of all our relationships!
I'm making a very conscious effort to keep in touch with family and home friends. I've been dealing with some guilt about being so busy all the time. It's a little dehumanizing if I can be dramatic for a second. I very often won't leave the SGA office until something like a phone call prompts me to take a break. I'm spending five hours on SGA work every weekday, and probably 2-3ish hours over the weekend, but I'm doing my best to leave all my work for office time since I have to do six office hours a week, but I wind up there outside of those hours inevitably. It's tricky business! My friends try their best to stop me from making my 7th trip of the day to SGA and even though I protest, I appreciate it =D.
Maybe I do talk about the same exact things in every entry, but it's honestly most of my life, and it's certainly what I want to vent out. I make sure to have fun on the weekends, I promise! Until next time, LiveJournal,... (I suck at sign-offs.)
