Time management!

With the end of the semester approaching everything is chaotic. It seems as if there's not enough time in a day! Everyone is cramming for tests and hurrying to complete assignments before coordinating deadlines. It's insane and I'm ready to go home haha! If there's anything I've learned from my first semester of college it's 'time management.' No one can get anywhere without it and it's been a hard thing to get accustomed to. In college you can't procrastinate like you can in high school, there is no such thing as late work in college, and teachers really don't care if your dog ate your homework.
Another interesting change to get used to was evening out my time between school, my sorority, and having a job. It's almost impossible!!!! You have to be willing to make tons of sacrifices, however, the bigger the sacrifice the better the reward. I think that's how it goes, anyway. For those of you that maintain a full load and a job, more power to you! I had such a hard time doing it and it costs me the gardes I could of had!!

Spring Break!

This Spring break I decided to stay home verses going on an expensive vacation. I got home Thursday and just in the past few days I've really learned how much I appreciate home. It's kind of lame but when you get caught up in school and all the extracurricular activities you may be involved in, you forget how much your family and home mean to you. I have two younger sisters, the first is 2 years old, and the other is a year old. Every time I come home they are doing new things that I'm constantly missing out on. I've really missed out on the funnest part of their childhood. However, I do like being away at school and it just makes my time with them more special.
I also have learned to appreciate the home-cooked meals!! I think everyone can relate to that. I live in a dorm so it's not exactly convenient to cook myself dinner, which is why my mom made sure she had a meal ready when I came home Thursday. I've also really enjoyed spending time with my mom. She is my best friend and between raising my sister, being a wife, and working we don't talk as much as we should so it's really enjoyable to come home and get to spend time with her. Anyway...I've just come to appreciate my loved ones and all they do for me because at the end of the day you'll always have family! =)
