Time for Reflection

I am still super busy with work and school and having no life, (I do get a brief break on Wednesday to have a life because I'm going to see Wicked with my friends, I'm SO EXCITED!) but today I somehow found some time to think. 


While I thought, I was remembering back in middle school, grade 8 I think when we were asked something along the lines of what would we like out of life. I remember that I answered with "I want to be able to look back on my life with no regrets." And I've already screwed that up. I can think of regrets about the roads not taken and relationships with people. I've failed myself already. Maybe I was naive, or overambitious, either way the fact remains that I'm not going to be able to look back on my life with no regrets unless I manage to accept things the way they are and accept the possibility that maybe things happened the way they did for a reason and that I really did make the right choice even if it doesn't feel like I did.  


I know that at least for the rest of this month I'm going to be extremely busy between school and work especially because my manager is going away to London for business at the end of this week and she'll be gone for a week. I know that this is the reason why she was so reluctant to give me time off, but I need to study for my midterm. She does need to hire someone else because I have another co-worker who was hired to work 4 days a week and is currently working 5 days a week. 


Thinking about the positives in my life right now, my hockey team is 2 wins away from bringing home the Stanley Cup, I'm going to have an amazing time on Wednesday night when I go see Wicked with 5 of my friends, I have Thursday off (even if I do have to use it to study and go to the dentist) and the weather is finally starting to get nice (even if I don't get to enjoy it because I'm working/going to school everyday).
