Getting Swamped

Had no time to write last night. I only have a moment now because I’ve chosen to forgo yoga. I suppose I did ask for a busier course load to take full advantage of my education, but I can’t help but feel the stress. I’ll just list out things to do for my own mental map:

+ Visual Impact Concepting – 10 concepts each week
+ Visual Impact Revising – 2 concepts revised after class critique each week
+ Short & Sweet – 50-100 headlines written each week
+ Short & Sweet – find art director to execute headline concepts
+ Strategic Thinking – at least 18 campaign concepts each week
+ Photoshop – not hard but time consuming homework & photography concepting

All this on top of:

– Freelance work
– Maintaining a writing schedule (tweeting, blogging, yelping)
– Maintaining a healthy eating and hygiene schedule
– Entertaining visiting friends from out of town
– Exercising
– Grocery shopping
– Laundry
– Miscellaneous errands
– Paying bills
– Surviving

There’s not enough hours in a day. Now more than ever, I understand its meaning.
