Lately I have been working on so many different things:
projects for 2 school organizations I am actively involved with, on top of lab
experiments, on top of my business planning. Not to mention the basic chores of
living on my own: cooking, cleaning, laundry, 2 dogs, exercising. I find it
difficult to find time to get everything done. As a matter of fact, I DON’T get
everything done. It takes something like 2 weeks to touch on all of these
things. I basically picked up speed overnight now that the school year has
begun, and my body is having a tantrum. I have had 2 nightmares in the past
week and slept through alarms twice. But I can honestly say I love my life.
My secret is: *drumroll please* I am good to myself. What
does that mean? It means I make sure to reward myself and allow myself to
breathe. I take time to relax myself, do things by myself, take mini vacations
. . .etc. Recently I celebrated my 24th birthday in Atlanta. I went
knowing a single person and came back with many new friends. I love that human
connection. It is very refreshing and reinvigorating. Also, just yesterday, I
went to a Jazz and Blues festival. It was so relaxing to be around happy people
and music that feeds the soul.
To counter the latest body tantrums, I am taking a mini
vacation home to see my closest family and friends. Can’t wait!
