Workin' for the Weekend

I love campus on the weekends. The atmosphere is drastically different and although many people do go home, the people who stay have much more fun.

This weekend was packed with good times. Friday started off with a movie marathon. Well, not a movie. A television show. I love T.V. Anyone who knows me in real life can attest to that. When I can immerse myself in that kind of in-depth story, it just makes me feel good. The show I marathoned was 'How I Met Your Mother' and I can to a realization: I am Ted Moseby. Optimistic, fun, outgoing, stable, and a bit sarcastic. That's me! With my relationships and work, I have a silimar outlook to Ted, he wants more and I am the same way.

I love my job becasue I get the opportunity to hang out with people all the time. I had a free ice cream and pizza party on Saturday just becasue I was bored. Yes, I really am that cool. Just hanging out with the people who are here on the weekends is so much fun, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Eating ice cream, watching television, and spend time with people I care about. Is anyone jealous of the fact taht this is how I work on the weekend?!

Welcome Week

This week I hit the ground running. I didn't expect to be so busy right out the gate this semester, but somehow, I managed to wriggle my way into classes that are pretty front-end heavy. I know that I will be able to manage this semester much better than last.

Someone very important to me said yesterday that I wasn't the best at managing my time last semester, and I would have to agree with her. It was hard to balance my relationships, work and school; but that is something that will always be a struggle. I know that the day that I am not torn in so many different directions, I will simply be heartbroken that I don't have so many things to occupy my time. Knowing that I have so many options, and so much to do, has always helped me to provide balance for my life. Being someone who has created a strong network of connections on campus has helped me to lead a healthy life. I know that I can depend on the people I live with and the people I chose to associate myself with to help create a balanced life.

I know that I tend to repeat myself a lot, but I tend to struggle with the same things... over and over. To be balanced and keep on running at the same speed are some things that I am ready to accomplish as this new school year begins. Wish me luck!
