Here I go!!!!!!!

Okay being mean is working. This weekend it was easy cause I had plenty of time to do studying and such and do what I want. During the week it gets hard. So I'm going back to what worked in college. I should have done this sooner. I plotted out my free hours at night.

In the afternoon at school I never have anything to do. So after the next pay day I'm getting a mic so I can do skype tutoring at school for the GRE. This will work out well. I usually have 3 hours free almost every day. I'm bringing my notebook so I can start outlines for my stories at school and flesh them out on the computer at home. I should have done this sooner. I remember when I was writing more in college I would always handwrite first and that made it way better. Then in any extra time I'll keep at the vocab words.

Now when I get home I have an hour to work out and walk the dog. At six I will learn my next twenty words and review the old ones. Then around 7 (depending how long review takes since as you get more and more words memorized it takes longer and I got a nice little stack now ;P). I'll take 30 minutes for my guitar so I don't forget the songs I've learned. I hope I can get back to lessons after I send in my applications in the fall. Then after that I will read and write. The best thing for a writer besides write is read. And lastly before I go to bed I review the new twenty that I learned that day.

I'm writing all this out because it makes it more real. Makes it happen. Promises to myself to just do better.

So I know that when I take the GRE or send in my stories for school, I will know I did my best. No regrets :).

  1. No free time during the week now, huh? That's ok though. But we should still try to meet up on the weekend for a puppy walk around Lake Park sometimes.
