These past few weeks I have been very busy. Most of it has been catching up from the few days I was out on vacation, but some of it is just a lot of things being thrown at me at once.
I've finally properly started my new job. I'm getting schedules the hours that I need to be able to pay for what I am responsible for. Although I'm making more money, it is also taking a lot more of my time. This leaves a lot less time for what I need to accomplish both in my academic life and my personal one.
All of my classes are coming to a head. There is a pause in each of my classes for assessment and it is all coming at the same time. None of my classes are too much for me to handle, but it is difficult when they all expect me to finish a chapter in each one.
Weeks like these are always the hardest. There is so much to do and not nearly enough time to do it.
I am beginning the slow process of adjusting to my new schedule. My classes are moving on and slowing down and I am prepared to plan ahead. I am finally going to be able to return to comfort. I haven't had the time to read my own books or perfect my solo until now. I am finally returning to the things I love and giving myself ample time to decompress and enjoy my senior year of high school.
I have a bag full of books I purchased so very long ago waiting at the foot of my bed for me to begin them. I have been distracted by everything, but maybe now I will finish at least one. I also have time to reconnect with my saxophone and relearn how to make it sound beautiful again. It has been so long since the combination of us has produced something close to music. I feel this depravity in my life. I feel the urge to sing simply to fill my surroundings with music.
I finally have time to myself and I am ready to use it.
