I feel like every time I write one of these posts, I'm just making excuses for my own incapabilities. I feel like I shouldn't have to consistently write posts about what's going on in my life... and then I remember that I can't even use the word 'consistently', because all of my posts end up clumped together in bundles of 2 and 3 each day every other week, if I'm lucky. I feel bad for always saying I'll make an effort to write, and then having this happen. I feel bad for letting this blog... slip away, in its own way.
Currently, my sister is the only one posting regularly. Then again, it's not like she's balancing 4 other courses and a social schedule... let alone trying to work a crazy amount of hours, like my dad and I. The thing is, when I get the time to actually write a blog, I never have anything that I find interesting enough to write about. Most times I've already written something for another class that day if not multiple things for a separate class, and I just don't have it in me to sit and write yet another long-winded "assignment". I know that I've used the quote "Busyness is not an excuse for not getting things done, it's an excuse for not claiming your true priorities"... and I'll be honest with you, right now, this blog isn't my priority. While it is important to me, I'm more focused on getting good grades and keeping up with my classes so that I don't end up out of the system. I'm more focused on staying in shape, and making my karate/kickboxing classes matter. I'm more focused on maintaining a good relationship with the people who matter most to me... because at the end of the day, this blog will be here. My health and my grades won't always be here if I don't maintain them studiously... And that's more important than this currently. I feel like everyone struggles with priority in their daily life. I've heard my friends complain about it before, too... I think the key is to realize you can't fit everything in, no matter how hard you try. You can't have it all. So pick and choose- what will be there at the end of the day? What will most affect your future? Make your choices wisely. - Maddie
