Hello again

I've been out of the blogosphere for almost a month but not by choice. As my semester comes to a very welcomed end, I can't help but wonder why it is so easy to get bogged down in the little everyday things. How did homework and tests and readings develop an all-consuming power over my life? How did I ever manage to fit writing for fun in?
After thinking it over, it's not my homework's fault that I haven't written anything lately. Well, not completely (although it did play a major role in it). Lack of time-management? Maybe a little. Firm belief that I am Wonder Woman and can do everything? Definitely. In the end, it is the choices I made this semester that zapped me of my time and energy. While I would like to go back and change some of them (playing games on Facebook has been my greatest regret), I feel like if I did, I wouldn't have the experiences this semester has given me. If I hadn't worked for HandsOn, I would never have the opportunity to plan and host my own workshop on how to use social media. If I had dropped my dance appreciation or Hitchcock classes, I would never learned about the history of either subject. If I had dropped my journalism ethics class (God forbid!), I never would have heard the awesome stories Fink and all our guest speakers had to share. And I would have a really terrible resume. Yes, I have missed my blog. But I would have regretted not getting to have these experiences more. Ultimately, I am happy with the way my choices, and although it was hard, I wouldn't change a single experience.
