And it was both exciting and frightening. Mostly frightening.
It was exciting because I've actually done some stuff of the resolution part of the list (aka the icky stuff.)
I got on top of my school stuff. This is going well enough that I consider this item crossed off. Other than that, I haven't really finished anything exactly. I've improved in everything but a better sleep schedule (good sleep or good grades I suppose), but I still have a lot of work to do on these.
Now, the BFS part (aka the fun stuff) is not going so well.
Seriously, I can't honestly say that I've done anything on this list. I've read half the books I wanted to. I haven't even started my afgan or my novel (On that note, NaNo is getting alarmingly close). Etc etc.
I do feel kinda bad that I haven't gotten to these things, but I'm actually not guilt tripping myself about it like I usually do. I feel like my priorities have changed a bit during the past few months.
Actually my new priority is to prioritize. Last school year I had a lot of time on my hands, so I could just about everything I wanted to. This year is a bit different. My free time, what little I have, must be budgeted carefully.
The things on my list aren't really important any more. My new goals are to actually do the simple things. I want to crochet. I don't need to make an entire afgan this year. I just want to write. I don't need to finish a novel. I want to make time to read. I don't need to read a certain number of books.
And there you have it. My long over-due update on the BFS list.
In other news, I have a Shakira song stuck in my head on loop, and if I don't get something else instead soon, I think I will be forced to stab myself in the head with a spork.
Oh that picture of the spork is wonderful. I feel like that should be a tee shirt.
ReplyDeleteI second the thing about the spork! Ha ha! And I know how you feel about not getting done all that you would like. I was going to have all my homework done in plently of time and have time to hang out with friends! So much for that :S
ReplyDeleteAh! I've been thinking Wow, it's been a while since I've heard from Dork Vader and then I look and it's been since October!
