Sadly the tattoo wasn't magic

Oh, so the balance tattoo I got back in December was meant to symbolize the balance I am striving to find in my life. I thought coming to Ireland would be easy balance. Well, instead of being on the work too hard play too little, I'm not on the waste time doing who knows what work too little side of things.

That needs to change. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm gonna go out and have fun. Actually, I think I might be going out tonight. But I need to start getting on track with the scholastic part of studying abroad. Ugh.

Sadly, that's not the only area where I'm lacking balance. I think, maybe if I let go of the watch, I'll be able to see the constant reminder more and get back on track. If anything, for my own sanity. If not for that, at least to be ready so that way I can be free to truly enjoy my travels with no worries in the back of my mind.

Ok, so, that's settled. I'll start working on hw, an essay for Developmental Geography and a scholarship essay (oh, that one is killing me), and I will find a way to work out and get some endorphins and clarity back.

Ok, I will make my own magic, the tat will just be pretty decoration and a reminder like it's supposed to.

P.S. Any ideas on a future career and three goals I have for the first five years at that job?<<< scholarship essay

  1. i gave you some ideas on the career in an email, but three goals: learn a new language, volunteer in a third world country where they speak the language you learned, organize a party/benefit for some charitable cause in said third world country where they speak said language.
    don't worry about balance. it will come eventually. but when you find it, let me know :)
    be good to yourself!
