The semester is almost half over and already I'm thinking, "How am I going to make it?" Trying to balance 17 credits, a leadership position, and a calling in my church can be downright hard. I have never been so worn out. But I've also never felt so productive. I just wish there was an easier way to do all the things I want and need to do. I wish I had more time to spend with people instead of always being in a hurry, or trying to meet a deadline, or doing something important. So, just to give you a taste of my life, here is the schedule of a typical Wednesday (and every other day is very similar, if not worse, than my Wednesdays)
7:30 Wake up, get ready, eat breakfast.
8:30-3:30 Go to class, office hours, and tutoring at the Junior High.
(12:30-ish Take an hour to eat, study scriptures, finish some homework.)
4:00 Meetings
6:00 More Meetings
8:00 Study, get off my feet, dinner, visit girls from church.
10:00 Waterpolo games!
11:00 Shower, go to sleep.
I feel like I am constantly in a hurry. I hardly have a chance to slow down and breathe. I feel like I am always trying to catch up with my life. I need to find a way to be more in control. I keep telling myself only a few more months before the Summer...but that just seems so far away. I mean, I love the experiences I have and the things I learn about myself, but when does a girl catch a break? What do I do when I can't do much of anything to change the fact that I love everything I'm doing? I persevere.
