Priorities...

School, work, boy, friends, family, church, laundry...it seems as though the priorities you want to have and the priorities you are supposed to have are usually different. At least, that's how it seems for me right now. We tend to take on so much, I especially right now just have a ton of things that I'm required to do, whether I volunteered for it or it was thrust upon me. I want to be able to focus on the projects that I enjoy the most, the ones I am most passionate about and that I will get obsessed with and spend all of my time thinking about, but there are things that "trump" those right now. Mostly school...I'm definitely slacking due to my vast extracurricular life. I've never really put school as a number one priority (or even two) and that is definitely coming back to bite me right now. My lack of attention to my work is very apparent right now, and on one hand I feel bad, I know my professors expect 100% effort, but I can't/don't want to give that. Maybe I have senioritus (it snuck up on me this time around) or maybe it's because my classes are theologically deep and interesting but have no current value/effect on my life. Whatever the case, I can't wait until May when I don't have to worry about it. Then I'll just have other things to learn to balance...
