Change is hard. It’s something many people tend to put off. Myself included. I know what I’m comfortable with, and what I like. So frankly, I’d like to stick to that!

Right now I don’t have any major changes, but I do have a lot of small adjustments that need to be made. I struggle with having personal and family problems get in the way of my school work. I get in a fight with a family member, I feel too down to even think about homework. I get distracted by roommates issues, my project gets put off another. The biggest change I need to make right now is separating school and personal life. Sure, I’m in college, and much of my social life is dictated by college aspects, but that doesn’t mean I should let it overtake the most important aspect. The schoolwork itself.

I’m naturally a very busy person. I go to school, I’m in a sorority, a member of the Hawkeye Marching Band, and I have an on-campus job. So needless to say, I need to have some serious time management. So when I have a personal problem, it can really get the best of me. I’m still struggling to not let these things effect me so harshly, but it’s definitely hard.

It’s all about making the necessary adjustments. Something I’ve been working on since my first year at Iowa, and still am.
