Back To School Already?!

As a undergraduate student, I was used to taking a whole month off from classes. As a graduate student and an ambitious student, my break was shorten to less than two weeks. But if I live like no other, then later I will live like no other. So, I'm working hard now, so later I can live comfortably and purposely. But I have to confess my love-hate relationship with school. Honestly, my current dream job would be to be a full time student. However, before my classes start, I usually become nervous and dread going back to school. On the other hand, I would much rather study and gain knowledge more than working a full time job. But of course, my bills do not care of my professional development. BGE and Comcast just want their money. So, here I am a full time student and a full time employee. What is a girl to do? Well my best advice is to prioritize and work hard. Is it difficult? Sure is!! I have been excelling in my classes and will be graduating this summer, but I also have to admit that there are areas in my life that I need to work on (health, fitness, organization). Getting back to prioritizing....I find my life slightly put together when I follow a schedule and when I plan. Yes, I plan everything. From shopping, meals, cleaning, outfits, money....a lot of planning. I try to keep my schedule consisitent, but as we all know schedules change. Sometimes, my schedule change monthly or by each semester. The point is to plan and make a schedule. Also, checking your schedule. Your written schedule isn't helpful unless you look at it EVERY DAY! I enjoy planning out my days, but I go crazy when I forget assignments or appointments when I don't look at my schedule. I keep it with my everywhere! Try it!
