i am a fail whale

if you're not on twitter, you may not know what the fail whale is, which is probably a good thing. twitter is highly addictive; don't join it if you value your time :) i find it a little ironic/amusing/aggravating that as i write this, the fail whale is taunting me. "too many tweets" is exactly how i'm feeling at the moment. i've reached the point in the semester where i'm constantly freaking out about everything

Time--I Mean Energy--Management

I read an article in the Harvard Business Review last week on time management that was apropos to me, and I'm guessing to many of us at this time in the semester. It approaches time management from a different perspective of "energy management", positing personal energy is a renewable resource, whereas time is finite. But first the backstory.

At the start of Spring break last week, I relished the oodles of time I had to complete two projects due this week for classes. I intended to do extra research for one of classes, the topic was so interesting. I took a few days break, did other things, went out of town, etc. Before I knew it, time had nearly run out and I was saying "there's not enough time in the day."
