Doing Everything

I was the opposite of this last week. I tried to do everything, and then got stressed and just slept a lot. I also worked on school work like it was the end of the semester. Sadly, despite the fact of being a second semester senior, I had group project meetings before classes even started.

 

First week in and this is how I feel. Like I'm dying, like the last 0.1 miles of the half. 

I know that people busier than I am find time to do everything and be productive. So I'm going to try to be more efficient and consume lots of coffee. In fact, there's even a t-shirt sold by the chemical engineering society that reads: "Cornellians run on caffeine by day and alcohol by night." Seriously, there are some crazy people here who do more things than I do, and then party like a rock star from Wednesday to Saturday. I am unfortunately not at that level, so I'm going to do everything that I need to do and then train for a marathon.

This is totally going to be me. 

Part of the reason I'm kind of running around everywhere is that I'm not prepared to drop my fun classes yet, like Human Bonding, figure skating, dance technique, and rifles. Yup, I'm taking a rifles course where I am going to shoot M-16s. I'd say that's beasting it. Especially since 50% of the grade is how accurately I can hit the targets.

Last time I really pushed myself, it turned out pretty well. 

So hopefully by the end of this semester, I'd be modern dancing, figure skating, marathon training, M-16 shooting, researching, teaching English, blogging, and hopefully employed after graduating chemical engineer. Wish me luck! 

Tell me, how do you guys do it all? Or how do you guys keep from procrastinating?
