Life is so crazy right now. But I love it. I am definitely learning the importance of time management, and remembering to tell myself: "It will all get done." And you know what? Even if it doesn't, that's still okay.

To give you an idea of the craziness of my schedule, on a typical day...

7 am - My alarm clock goes off. I quickly roll over to hit "snooze" and then proceed to lay in bed until (at least) 7:15.

7:45 am - Head to work (in Admissions), grabbing a quick bite to eat on my way there.

8-10:30 am - Work! Honestly, I have one of the best on-campus jobs ever. I am a Belmont receptionist (also referred to as a "Welcome Desk Worker") so, basically, I get to greet anyone who comes into Freeman Hall, serve as an operator for the Admissions department, schedule campus visits, and check-in prospective students. I absolutely love it.

11 am-1 pm - Class. On Monday/Wednesday/Friday I have Hispanic-American Literature and Spanish Conversation.

1 pm - Meet some friends in the Curb Café for a Quiznos sandwich and, of course, a cookie...

2:30 pm - Head to the Beaman to workout OR go for a walk outside, especially if the weather is as nice as it is today (it's almost 70º here!).

3-5 pm - Shower, attempt to start on homework.

5 pm - Swing by Bongo Java on the way to my Wednesday night class (caffeine is THE ONLY possible way to make it through a night class).

5:30-9 pm (only on Wednedays) - Night class: World History since 1500. Not exactly the most exciting part of my day, but the teacher is phenomenal and...guess what...it's only an 8-week class, so I will be done by spring break!

9 pm - Relax. Then, work on homework and/or find ways to thoroughly procrastinate starting on it.

10ish - Catch up with friends, head to Sonic for a junior ice cream candy sundae (they are the best!).

11:30 pm - Crawl into bed and read (for fun, of course) until my eyelids will no longer stay open. (That typically consists of 5-10 minutes.)

Like I said, it's crazy. There are very few days that I find myself with absolutely nothing to do...but I am, surprisingly, okay with that. My daily exhaustion is a good kind of exhaustion - it's the I-was-so-productive-today kind of exhaustion. Life is so good right now. Crazy as it is, I wouldn't change a thing.
