Daily Blog Day 10 -- Screenioritis

 Happy Humpday everyone! Whatcha think of today's title? Kinda clever, eh? 


I must admit that with 41 days until I'm officially a college graduate and just 29 until the last day of class, I'm getting a tad burnt out from school and especially looking at screens all day! This semester has been a blast -- my best ever in school -- but I can't help but be eager to be done. That said, this provides me with a great opportunity to put my focus and discipline to the test. All of a sudden there seems to be so much going on, which is really exciting, but if I'm not careful it gets overwhelming quick. I currently feel surrounded by meetings, exams, papers, projects, events, and everything in between. Luckily, I have things like meditation, breath-work, and exercise (I enjoyed my weekly 45 min spin class this morning) to balance out the busy-ness of life. I've found it crucial to develop and prioritize these tools/practices that I just mentioned because life is always gonna be at least a little crazy -- we have to learn how to best exist within that craziness. 

Still, I want to complain a little bit to y'all. I am so ready to not be looking at a screen all day, every day. I have no idea how you guys who work on computers all day do it. The grass is always greener, though... I'm sure I'll be writing another blog in a few months about how sick I am of looking at roads and fields all day.

A reminder to myself and anyone reading: the fear/difficulty/discomfort of actually doing the thing you're dreading is much less severe than your imagination makes it out to be.
