I am finding my stride and living life in a world filled with chaos and change. |
One of my biggest problems is with procrastination, and then, the ensuing stress over not completing things in a timely manner. What makes it so bad is that I do really well when I get started but it's starting that is my issue. I had two huge assignments that revolved around completing 12 different artistic events and then to write a 2 - 3 page paper about my learning outcomes from attending these events. I was given this to do back in fall '06 but I didn't finish it, along with the learning outcomes about the life of Jesus of Nazareth until Dec. 22 2007. That is sad. The worst part about it is that once I actually started on the work it wasn't all that bad. Writing the papers wasn't that tough. I really did learn new things to talk about at length in my papers. I was SOOOOO stressed and all for nothing. I must get past this, especially since I am planning on going into the Masters program in the fall of '08. So, I cannot play around once I am doing graduate work. Playtime will be over for me, but I so enjoy learning, and in learning about past philosophers, artistic events and many other things, I am learning more about myself. I guess that is a good thing...that I am learning, not what I am learning... |
