I Lost It

This is something new I have started. It is something that has been helping me with expressing how I've been feeling lately and what I do to get over the latest roadblock in my life.

Where HAVE I Been????

So...apparently blogging, working, school, homework, observation time, and exercise has been too much for me that last two semesters (Yes, I said 2 semesters!). The things I let slip during the past semester? Blogging and exercise....not good considering my degree is physical education! It's a tough reality check when you realize being a kid was SO much easier!

Right now, where I stand within college is roughly about 4 semesters, as long as I can get into all of the classes I need to. My last 2 semesters will be in whatever school I am assigned to, which will be nice to get out of the classroom and learn from various physical education teachers.

My plan of action this semester is to set small goals to become a better college student so that I will do better in school and overall with how I deal with daily struggles and achievements. My goals I have set for myself are:

• Exercise 3 days per week
• Plan!
• Know when to relax

One of my biggest downfalls I have is putting way too much pressure on myself to succeed. This last semester I realized taking too many credits, working, and attempting to be at the gym everyday will only create stress emotionally, physically, and mentally. I now understand that by making goals, you must do small ones in order to accomplish one big goal. One of the biggest downfalls I have as far as planning goes? Not making any! I quickly realized that without any sort of plan, everything goes south and you are left struggling to hang onto the reins!
