Here I go, again
Hello, web friend (this is a common brazilian joke, not sure if there's an english substitute), how are you doing? Hope you are well and if you're not, I am wishing you all the best vibes of recovery and happiness, things will get better!
Anyway, recovery and positivity is a great thing and maybe I'll turn it into a blog topic one day, but this day is not today. Today I'd like to share my greatest problem yet, so get ready, grab a water bottle, maybe a snack, find a comfortable position and come with me. (woo, dramatic, aren't we?)
I'm an overdoer (I know this is just as made up as the Klingon language, but stick with me). I am an overachiever and a horrible project manager. Basically, I want to do so much stuff at the same time, that all of my random projects and ideas get mixed up in my head and on several incomplete notebooks, so I get nothing done and end up covered by the shame of "wasting" days in a row. We are in march now and I still have two months before my classes begin. My uni went on a strick last year and it messed up all of its courses' timeline, so I knew I wasn't going to start at the beginning of the year since I went through registration for the major. The problem is that I did all that between January and the first weeks of February, so I already had 2 months of free time, but, instead of enjoying the time or focusing on one thing, I thought it would be a great idea to take piano classes, learn japanese, start a daily blog, have a head start at calculus (mostly because I want to be at the top of my class from the start, can you see how much of an idiot I am already?) and take an online sewing course. All while playing my favorite games everyday, watching anime and spending a great portion of my day talking to my friends and planning our team cosplay (a rwby one, for the strq team, gonna be great, high hopes!).
Writing it all here felt like opening up about an addiction, but it's all true and it requires a kind of organization I have no grasp on, not that I didn't try. In fact, I tried using an agenda (too big, didn't fit in my everyday purse and it felt too heavy to use on my little backpack, so I kept forgetting to use it), a todo app (made me more interested in my phone than in the app itself) and making a bullet journal (which I always forget to check), but none of them worked. How do people stick to things that are not google's agenda for events and todo lists written in their own hands (messy, though the only way for me to actually remember my goals for the day)? When I was in high school things were easier, I kinda went with the flow of events and didn't really control my time and still got nice grades, but now I have so many options, so much time and I don't know what to do. H E L P!
Well, that was today's ramble. Sorry it sounds so whinny, I'm a messy kid full of privileges with little to no worries, but yeah. That was that, see ya later and remember to have some pitangas for your tears. :)
