So I have a dictation in Chinese this morning. It's not really big enough to be called a quiz, and we have an official quiz on Friday, so my professor isn't calling it a quiz - but I know it's a quiz. I had to study for it last night, with flash cards, and that definitely categorizes it as a quiz. I don't think it's going to be too hard. But it's an important moment for me in that it's my first quiz of this semester, and I think how I do will give me a good idea of things I am doing right thus far and things I need to fix. I'd like to say I have good study habits. But I am pretty sure I spend too much time watching movies and not enough time focused completely on my schoolwork.
The world says that's wrong. The world says I need to study harder so I can do well in school and go out and make piles of money. But I am doing what I like to do, what makes me happy. And if a movie makes me happier than studying for five straight hours, I'm going to go for it.
I'm going for a run this afternoon. I have been eating really well - I mean really well. Lots of fruits and vegetables, good balanced meals, normally-sized servings. But I haven't had the time to go to ultimate practice, and therefore have gotten next to no exercise. I'm losing muscle tone as we speak. So I think I'm going to go for a run after classes, do a bit of studying, go to the gym around 8, and then come back at 9 and hit the books until 12. I am realizing I'm probably going to have to settle for 7 hours of sleep on most school nights, sometimes less. But that's fine. Get it.
