Today has gone well.
I've been rather stressed out the last few days, but today was nice to just let me know that just because you had a bad day yesterday does not mean it will the next. This whole schedule thing is leaving me barely any time to get homework done, and with all sorts of projects, jazz band, track, scouts, school, regular homework, regular band... it's starting to take it's toll. But it seems that it is getting better.
First of all, my endurance to be able to withstand track has already changed dramatically since I first started last week. When we do our five minutes warm up jog, I'm not gasping for air at the end. And it didn't just change from one day to the next, but it's been getting exceptionally easier as the days pass by. And part of it may be because of my enthusiasm; you come in thinking it's going to be lame, then guess what? 99% of the time, it'll be lame! I've also tried to apply this to others areas of my life, but it's helped with this one particularly.
Anyways, I may be a tad bit behind on homework, but as soon as I shift things back into gear, I'll be right back to where I used to be... hopefully.
My productivity level has also changed. I still go on the computer and IM whilst doing homework at the same time, but I feel part of a team like I did with Soccer. It's like, something was taken away from me when I quit that and now, all of a sudden, it's back. As corny as that may seem, it's true. And, it feels nice to be able to use that time in Track to my advantage for P.E.
Unfortunately, the potentiality that I used to see in Jazz Band is just not there anymore. It's fun and great to go to... once a week now. Practice after practice for Wednesdays are being cancelled leaving me with only one day to practice with the band each week. And, as much as I hate to say it, it isn't fun anymore. But who knows... maybe it'll change.
Anyways, it's too much to explain in just one entry and it's late. I'm going to bed.
