Stress

School and an internship are never easy to balance. Factor in a roommate getting evicted and you have my life right now.
At this point in the game, I feel completely overwhelmed. I have deadlines that overlap and responsibilities at the radio station that I have to keep up with. I need a break!
Thank God spring break is almost here. I can't even begin to say how glad I am that it starts next week. I feel that with my packed schedule, my quality of work is slipping big time. I'm usually so on top of things and I have time to check and double check anything I write or edit to make it near perfection, but with the amount of things I have going on, I can say I am disappointed in everything I've done.
I need to re-charge my batteries. I need to sleep and when my week of relaxation (well just no school still have the internship) I can bet that my quality of work will be right back to where I want it.
I've always been a leader and I take to much on, so I know that my time constraints are my own fault, but I can't help but think that maybe this is all a blessing in disguise.
I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Whether it is a D on a test or an interview falling through, I think that you can learn from those setbacks.
My project in Beyond the Game has been nothing but one giant setback. I've discussed the issues I've had and I've vented to friends, family and even teachers. But the general concensus of those little chats I've had is that if this project doesn't kill you, it will prepare you for the real world.
The real world stops for no one. I think after this semester is complete I will be able to handle anything. Real world, listen up! I'm ready. Hit me with your best shot.

Midterms, Midterms, Midterms

This week was especially stressful. Not only do I have tons of work to complete for Beyond the Game, I also am lucky enough to have teachers who, I swear, have plotted against me and scheduled every midterm project's due date, on the same day.
Ah the joys of being a college student. One obligation is pulling you here while another one is yanking you in a completely different direction. I guess I should really put the blame on myself.
Just a bit of background info on myself: You could call me the Jessie Spano of Griffith High School. Jessie ruled the halls of Bayside High as the student council president, class president, captain of the volleyball, softball and swim teams and everything under the sun. I followed the same hectic lifestyle as Jessie. In high school I was able to balance my 50 different extracurricular activities, but this past week I've learned that it is a far harder task to balance in your senior year of college.
Basically, with the mounds of homework, video editing, interviews and papers that are due this week, and my 35 hour a week internship, I have come to the conclusion that I should think about slowing down at some point in my life, or I may just let my twenties fade away.
I just hope my hard work pays off. Someone should reassure me that I will be okay. Thank you.
