It makes u miss spending time with ur partner, with friends and social activities, at leats you cant really get sick of them which is seeing the bright side. nothing is wrong with that, at least when u spend 1 hour with ur partner u spend a quality time in your loved's company. since u know u have limited time you make best use of it. u dont waste it. let me tell you something, usually i have a crazy schedule im studying 2 diploma programmes, one certificate in the evenings, attending 4 hours italian course and working part time in a bank which means i have to bring work to home and my each report is not less than 40 pages and im supposed to finish it off on a night. then exams, assignments, audits etc. by the way im a party animal and a popular girl so i have to catch up with the latest fashion trends with house parties, private parties and go on vacations with friends. Time flies and usually im on alert. i sleep little and before forgetting im obsessed with gym so i train 2 hours everyday. u make the math. but,........ now its summer and i dont have any of these courses, i took break from bank and let me tell u something IM DEPRESSED EVERYDAY. EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWN IS AT CLOSE HAND. for a year i dreamed summer so i would relax and chill but what im doing is absolutely nothing and its killing me phsically, emotionally and metally. im compeletly lost. i feel sooo bad cause i cant find a hobby, i dont know what is the purpose of life and etc. i was soo much involved in these intense activities once i go a break from them i dont know what to do. im supposed to enjoy the time but i cant cause i know im wasting it, i feel soo useless. it feels like i wasted another percious day of my life doing absolutely nothing. i cant wait to go back to my normal life. thats my inner escape or that running like crazy makes me happy in a way. sooo be happy with being tight on time. trust me when u have it all u dont know what to do. to reduce feeling guilty im reading books like crazy, browsing web and reading ur blog but then i feel soo overloaded. i find out soo much about soo many things and being aware of my ignorance makes me feel worse lol. mediatation is the key i guess. neway its 6 am in the morning and havent slept yet,. just reading, reading so i feel less guilty following day. enjoy life as much as u can :) i would not worry too much if i were you. your obsession with checking emails and phone calls are what defines you. some people are designed to be extremely relax and lethargic some are to be always on alert.

She's a friend that requires so much effort to maintain contact and the last item on your list keeps running through my head. The fact that I sigh with slight resentment that a friend is coming at a stressful time should be indicative of the type of friendship this has become. I think I should seek out the friends who will help me through the stress instead of entertaining people out of a sense of obligation... This is a tough one, but glad i'm not the only one who has guilt issues about it! I have a friend coming to visit this weekend at the most horrible of times.

It is good that you've stopped and thought about what is important and what changes you need to make. I need to do that too. Sorry you've had a rough week. I understand! I hope you feel better next week. It is true that people make time for what is important to them. It is good that you’ve stopped and thought about what is important and what changes you need to make.

Well, let's see. I spend 9 hours a day at work, though that does include an hour lunch with the BFFs. My nights are spent either at school or on the couch- watching tv with WH, working on homework, or web surfing. I wake up ten minutes before I'm supposed to leave the house and run around like a mad woman. It's a good thing I'm a multi-tasker and can manage to worry about a myriad of things I have no control over while I do other things. I really, really, want to start getting up at 5am so that I can blog and workout before work- I really think I would feel like I "owned" more of my day and my time in general if I could do those two things for myself before I tend to anyone else, but 5am is AWFULLY early. :) Oh, cricket.
