It is the end of the week, finally! This week has been a long week, and I’m surprised I don’t feel tired. As a college student, it is sometimes hard to manage your time. I guess it does not get easier when you get older, does it? I presented on two assessments today, one is the Worker Role Interview (WRI) and the other one is the Work Environment Impact Scale (WEIS). I had the desire to stay up late last night to finish my PowerPoint presentation. I truly cared about it and wanted to do my best. I even baked pumpkin cake (the mix is from Trader Joe’s) to share with my group members (see below). Considering I had two hours of sleep, I am functioning pretty well. I actually don’t feel tired. I haven’t had any coffee today. I guess I’m just excited about life while the adrenaline is keeping me awake all day. I usually only stay up that late once a semester, not bad for a college student, right? My goal is to manage my time better and not procrastinate. Do you have any tips for time management? I would love to hear it.

Also, on a side note, yesterday my residents dropped by to give me flowers! Oh, life of a resident advisor. I think that really motivated me to finish my presentation. 😊
