The beginning of this year I thought i had it all planned out nicely, but well, you know fate... it loves to throw people curve balls. I 'planned' to begin this year with changing my availability where i work from part time to full time and get my university application done at the same time. It really didn't work out! In the first week I had to tell my manager at the end of the week that this is not going to work for me and switch back to part time. That alone threw a lot of things off and I ended up taking more time trying to get my application together on the days I wouldn't be working. Some of it, did get done which was great but I still had a lot of things to do.
Moving on to February, since I had more free time I was taking this semester off meant I could get other things done and of course the application. Which came down the wire. I got all the written stuff (biographical statement, questionnaire, and statement of interest) a week before the deadline and ended up working on my portfolio right up to the day before the deadline before sending it off in the mail. I know i was cutting it close but i got it in which is better than missing the deadline completely.
I've got some plans for other things I'd like to do this year and well, some of them i haven't really gotten around to.
We'll see, I will get the things done when i feel like, but right now i really deserve to take some R n' R after going 12 months to college non-stop and completely my university application.
