Drowning...


So with wrapping up midterms, papers due, my new spin class at 7:30 am, and an ever growing to-do list....I feel like I am drowning in responsibility!
Remember the days when we begged to stay up late (like 9pm was late HA!) like a "big" kid?
When all we had to worry about was some easy peasy spelling homework and a project that when you think back...was actually kind of fun?
Elementary and Middle School were the dream, right?
High School wasn't too bad either. I mean you gained more responsibility, yes, but for the most part, high school is simply just fun. At least my experience was.
But moving out of the house, going to college, paying for rent, books, tuition, food, gas, so on and so on.
Hard classes, feeling like you have been in school for a million years, midterms, finals, and all the dramas of "real life."
Bah! When does the easier part come?
Can you all tell I have Senioritis or what?!

P.S. I may have stuffed some toilet paper in my shorts this morning
to cushion my bum bum during Spin :) HA.

  2. The good times when all we wanted to do was grow up, what were we thinking. Good luck, I don't know if it ever gets easier. Just when I think I have a handle on everything I have to do something throws it way out of balance again. And then you work to get your head above water again. You come to appreciate the days when you have nothing to do.

  6. being a grown up does suck (esp on mondays). why don't you get some of those mountain biking shorts with the pads built in? probably more expensive than charmin but much more efficient!
    oh & love your heart sunnies!

  19. I think life just gets harder and harder, it just seems that middle and high school was easy because those are in the past. I'm sure college will seem easy once it is all over and you have moved on to something harder. I like the top of your blog.

  22. BAHA!!! Padding your bum with toilet paper is the most hilarious thing I've ever heard. Your blog looks fantastic, I'm going to be taking a position helping a friend in the navy and I have to design a blog for their unit. Maybe you could help me?! Mine stinks.

  28. Awesome picture! I want to join a spin class-- is it as good of a release as I've heard? & kudos to you for still finding time to exercise even while feeling overwhelmed. It's such a great thing, isn't it?

    & THANK YOU for the comment!!

  29. I have senioritis too sister! If you find any remedies that help please pass them along. :)
    Middle school was definitely not a dream for me but I totally agree with you about elementary school. Field Day, kickball at recess, bomb.com Halloween and Christmas parties, oh boy do I miss it.
    I love your swimsuit by the way.
