Balance

I remember writing an entry on my old blog about how my heart is split up in terms of family, friends, significant other, and work. The most fair way to divy up my time and energy is 25% each. But, I'm finding that it's becoming increasingly difficult to maintain such a balance. First, I tend to be a workaholic, so I dedicate more time to my job than necessary, also causing me to place unnecessary stress on myself. Next, I realize that I'm spending less and less time with my parents. It started during the spring semester when I just didn't want to pick up my mom's calls. I was busy studying (another instance of improper balance) and didn't want to get distracted. And, I may have caught a case of 有了男友忘了朋友. *sigh* I need to better manage my life. Why didn't MGMT 100 teach me how to manage myself before managing others?
