Needing a Break
Dear Sisters and Friends,
Sadly, I will not be around Greekchat much for awhile. I am completely in over my head in all areas of my life right now. I feel like I am seriously losing control. School is a lot more than I bargained for. Classes are going well, but my Ph.D. work is taking up a lot more time than my previous grad school experience. My teaching load is really heavy this term, and I am teaching an online course that is totally killing me:eek: I just got word that I will be a Graduate Assistant next semester. That's great news, but it will also mean a lot more work. I agreed to be the Leadership Development Chair for my APO section, but that isn't going so well. I really like our Section Chair and the other staff members, but I don't know.......it's just not fitting well into my life. I'm teaching 3 Taekwondo classes per week, and my instructor really wants me to prepare for my next belt rank testing. Taekwondo has always meant A LOT to me, and I hate that I've had to set my training aside for so many other things. I just don't have time for so many of the things that I have always enjoyed. I don't have time to communicate with real-life friends, let alone online ones. I'm just going to take November as a "regrouping month." I need to figure out what is important to me and where I can trim things down. I'm only 25 years old, and I'm already showing signs of a stomach ulcer! I have a headache 24-7, and I rarely get to be with my husband. Things need to change. I wish all of you the best of luck in the world. I will certainly be popping in now and then, and I'm still going to be a part of Alison's Friendly Venture and Online Kappa. I love you guys!!!!!! Erica |

I understand the feeling of being overwhelmed with so much on your plate. Take as much time as you need, we'll be here when you get back!! ((((((((Big Hugs for my sister)))))))) Mizpah and yellow roses, Angie @->---- |
