Being a Wallflower

Today...

I saw the Perks of Being a Wallflower. I seriously have not seen such a good movie in such a good time. I think it's just because I'm that kind of person that really appreciates the simple real things.
I seriously fell in love with these characters, who they are, who they stand for and who they remind me of in my life. I think it just really touched me because I can relate -- maybe not personally, but I have a couple of very close friends that can. I couldn't help but cry my eyes out in certain moments because I just saw my friends there and I felt the pain, I felt the emotion. 

It also coincides with a very emotional semester -- I'm taking positive psychology and I just feel like I've been doing it all wrong but it's okay. I've learned A LOT about life, people, and happiness in general. I've been able to go into the past and pick out those things I've done wrong and right and learn from it. 

It's days like these that make me re-think what I'm doing with my life. 
That's it for today.

Student, Intern, Volunteer, Member

Today...

I realized -- I'm all over the place!
This semester I really out-did myself with the amount of work I'm doing on a daily basis (whether it be for school, work or service).

School: 
I'm taking the hardest classes in both my majors: Business Finance, Cognitive Psychology and Laboratory Methods in Psychology (oh, and Management -- totaling up to 14 credit hours).


Work: 
I'm working 15 hours a week as an Marketing Analyst in Convert Global, a marketing software company.



Service: 
I'm volunteering at Baby Gator Research and Development Center.
I'm working as a Marketing Director for the Financial Literacy Challenge for Students in Free Enterprise.
I'm a Museum University Student Educator (MUSE) for the Harn Museum of Art.


Clubs: 

Working on a marketing project for American Marketing Association for the company Altria Sales and Distribution.
I was also a Marketing Director for Alpha Kappa Psi and a current Active Member.



Not to mention that I'm trying to stay up to date with my social networking and social life as well! *sigh*
What an experience! I'll let you know how I made it through, if  I make it through.
