Today is a new day… but that doesn’t make me feel any better. Things weigh on my mind and I feel like all I need is some rest. I wish I could just sleep the day away until I’m so bored that I have no choice but to get up and do SOMETHING.
I will create a list of things that I MUST accomplish by the end of the day at work, and I’ll force myself to do them one by one, piece by piece. Baby steps.
If I have any free time after that, I’ll make a list for the things I would like to figure out in life (you know, the other half of the "work/life balance" thing), such as:
- Studying for the MTEL (which I’m taking in less than 2 weeks)
- Figure out a realistic workout schedule
- Plan my meals and actually make them!
- Read the book sitting on my night table ("Going Rogue" by Sarah Palin)
- Finish organizing my photographs into albums
The list is not that long, but I start school next week, and I’d like to stay on top of things to reduce my stress levels throughout the school year. Just 4 more classes. Just 4 more classes. Just 4 more classes. I can do this. 8 months from now all schoolwork will be in the past.
Now all I need is some time to relax. I just have to make a conscious effort NOT to book myself for anything this weekend.
To the High Societies: please don’t invite me to anything this weekend. I decline in advance and in bulk. (Phew, glad we got that one out of the way!)
Ok, time to get crackin’. Manos a la obra!
