I've always been a pretty busy human being. At school when many of my peers had twelve free periods a week, I had one. During the holidays I would be home for no more then a day between travels to maximise the time spent out of education. Even this past year I got up at six every morning, went to work, then came home for half an hour to change and eat before heading off to circus or to see friends until late. Sleep. Repeat.
I'm the kind of person who says 'yes' to everything. But now I'm about to start uni, I'm going to have to say 'no'. And I'm not quite ok with that yet.
In an ideal world, I would turn up and do netball, hockey, juggling, cheerleading, parkour, circus classes, frisbee and pole vault while going out every night and still somehow managing to scrape a 2:1 in my exams.
Sadly, in the real world, this just isn't going to happen.
I'm going to have to choose only two or three activities and I'm going to have to be prepared to drop them if I can't keep up. Ugh.
This is where time management comes in! If I can somehow manage to set aside enough time to hand in all my projects and labs by their deadlines and work efficiently in these time slots, I might just be able to do it. ('It', I should probably mention, is ideally going to be juggling, parkour, cheerleading and circus. Ambitious, I know...) I just need to get myself sorted, and figure out just how much work a degree is going to be. I could be in for a shock.
Over and out.
