quickly

i do not have much time on my hands already. 

last year, there was this fantastic amount of about two weeks' time where i could do whatever i want and enjoy the people i was with regardless. there were typically no assignments and if there were, they were small and pretty insignificant. they did not take up much of my time so i could spend it seeing my friends or eating meals (i miss that so much)...

and already i am a busy, busy bee.

i decided this semester to take on the job of starting my own intramural soccer team, since last year i wanted to play, but couldn't find a team to get on. so i vowed to start my own. and did. and i have to register the team tomorrow, but we've already had two practices :) it's a fantastic group of people though it is quite a large team. but i really love doing it. and it takes up a ton of my free time, emailing everyone and figuring out rules and stuff. but whatever. i do it because i love it. so that's one of my lovely activities that makes time disappear oh so quickly.

let me see. after last week i already had several assignments assigned that are due this tuesday. tuesday is my crazy day. i just got a work/study job (yay!) that i will start. and then i have class until 10pm with only a 2.5 hour break in between two studios. not the most ideal for getting homework done. i really have to rework my sleep pattern and develop stronger time management this semester. 

and MUSKET hasn't even really started up yet...i am working as the assistant marketing director this semester for an entirely student-organized and -run musical theatre group. which will be madness when it actually does start up. again, i do it because i love it. i love theatre and any chance i can get to enjoy it here even if i'm not acting is still amazing. and it is giving me a bit of experience on planning and holding promotional events as well as advertising! so even though i'm not working as a creative, i'm still getting a feel for what happens when marketing performances to college kids. i'm getting to know ann arbor and its businesses better as well. working as a marketer for MUSKET is fantastic! and i am thrilled to be the assistant marketing director this year (as a sophomore!) . 

some sad news though, i cannot act in children of eden this year. i just found this out tonight. i am extremely disappointed. since i have to take two night classes this semester, i can't go to any practices.  which, if you were wondering, makes me a very sad person. i love this play. it's fantastic. and i was in it my senior year of high school. it was truly a life-changing experience. and alas, i cannot have any part of it since my schedule won't allow it. same with choir. i can't go to any choir practices this semester since i have class. horrible. i love choir. it's one of the highlights of my week. and i can't have it either. 

i want to have my cake. i also want to eat it. and i can't. this is horrible. right now, my life is very frustrating. 

but a key point that i do have to go back to is that i do now know what i want. and as one of my friends told me today "that explains the glow you have about you". 

so apparently even though i'm a bit internally mismashed, i'm glowing. figure that. 

i'm out.
