I've been doing a lot of the things I enjoyed when I was at my happiest point like for example: visiting local attractions, hanging out with new people, and my most treasured... READING. A few years ago I had developed this love for reading. More like an obsession. I had worked at the Library at one point in my high school career and that was my dream job. I bet I picked out 2 books to take home in the span of unloading 1 cart of books. My friends all loved to read as well. We would spend the dreaded "morning after" of a sleep over just lazing about reading books together. Once I had gone away to University I found it useless to spend my days reading non-fiction novels when my time could be much better spent reading books for school. My life became so absorbed in school that I forgot about the things that made me truly happy. I stopped going to events and attractions in the city with my friends and I stopped reading. I harbored so much guilt if I was doing things I enjoyed while my parents were helping put me through University.
That would be my most difficult negative character trait to live with, if I had to pick one. When there is something that needs to be done, I can't leave it hanging over my head. The worst feeling is when I wake myself up out of a sound sleep because I forgot to do something. I know my weakness is over achieving which isn't necessarily a negative but when it comes to enjoying life, I need to schedule it into my life. Therefore my goals for this fall semester of school are..... :
- Organization
- Time Management
- Enjoy my time away from work & study
- READ, SEE FRIENDS, ENJOY HALIFAX!!
