I wonder if this happens to everyone who blogs/writes or maybe it's just me but I always find it a challenge when it comes to starting a new post. :B
To be honest, I thought that I would have a lot of time to blog and slowly cross things out of my after SPM to do list but boy was I wrong. I was quite busy with work and whenever I came home I would be dead tired. The first thing I would do whenever I came home was crash. I would then wake up and laze around until night came and sleep some more. Those was pretty much my Mondays to Fridays. I would spend my whole Saturdays in church and try to be productive on Sundays but really end up watching Korean dramas/variety shows. On the bright side, I ended work last month (which I will be blogging about soon as well as what I have been doing for the past few months, yeaaaaay) and I am officially a bummer for the next two weeks. I hope that I can accomplish most of what I want to do before college starts.
Speaking of college! I just registered for college last Saturday. I will be starting college next month at Sunway College. When I was deciding what I wanted to do, this huge wave of emotions hit me. I realised that I would be going through another new phase in my life. Excuse me if I start to sound like a drama queen but college sounds like a pretty big deal to me. You meet new people, new environment, slowly start to discover what career you would want, becoming more independent, learn a whole lot more and etc. I will officially be 18 in December and one thing that I have been hearing a lot was to grow up. I'm not gonna lie, growing up is scary and takes a lot of effort. You have to be more responsible, make an effort to know what is going on, not be afraid to ask and do a whole bunch of things which requires you to come out of your comfort zone. Growing up is not a bad thing but it can be frustrating. One thing I learned so far is to not beat yourself up when you make a mistake because that's part of growing up too.
What got me thinking the most were my priorities. I would ask myself questions on what should be done first or which is more important. Since I am bumming now, *heh* I tell myself that I do not have many things to do but that is not true. I am just a bum and lazy, lol. I have tons of stuff to do! I am glad that I thought about it because lately I have been pretty motivated to actually prioritise the things which I need to get done followed by the things which I want to do. Another important thing which comes with prioritising is being able to manage my time well.
Time is free, but it's priceless.
You can't own it, but you can use it.
You can't keep it, but you can spend it.
Once you've lost it you can never get it back.
- Harvey MacKay
That quote which I came across is so accurate on how important time is. My time management can be quite okay but quite bad at times. Sometimes I feel as if I do not have enough time in a day to finish what I planned to do even after prioritising. Other times I feel as if I am on top of the world because I managed to accomplish something. I guess that's how important it is to prioritise and have a rough idea on how long it would take or how much time you would need to set aside for it.
Thank you for reading through this pretty messy post. :p I hope I did not bore you with it. It's 12.52am right now and my eyes are slowly going into sleep mode, zz. Do feel free to comment if you would like me to blog about anything specifically! <3
