Okay, so I knew that this coming semester, I was going to be pretty busy, but I did NOT think it would hit this hard, this fast. Holy crap, I’m on the verge of being overwhelmed by everything; school, work, UNICEF, the Gym, family, friends, YouthScape, church and finding time for myself. I feel like I need a seperate me on the side who studies and makes time for people, while the original me can just run and around get everything done. And then, reality slaps me in the face, and I get back to Life.
On that note, I can’t emphasize ENOUGH how important it is to surround yourself with things that make you happy. For example, this morning, it was the gloomiest day ever. I got into work at 8:00 am, shot off some emails, and got right to work. Around 9:30, I got up to make my breakfast. My microwave ready oatmeal with a fresh banana was ready in 1:45 minutes. I brought it back to my desk, and as I was eating, I plugged my music in, and Leavin by Jesse McCartney was next on my playlist. And I don’t know how or why, but somehow, my warm delicious breakfast coupled with this happy-go-lucky music actually brought a smile to my face.
At that moment, everything felt right, sync and in-tune with everything else around me. I let myself baske in this moment. And then, twelve seconds later, I got back to work, because moment’s are cool and all, but no one wants to get in trouble for idling @ work… hehe
