Week #2: Time I challenge myself at most and what helped me to manage it.

Today (or it's already yesterday), we talked about the situation we have ever challenged ourselves in our life at most. And for me, one of those situations is coming right now. I have very hectic schedule recently that I could hardly manage. This term, I take classes that demand us a lot of reading assignments (including this class), so it takes a lot of time. And I also take Spanish 2. This class continues from Spanish 1 from the last term, but since I couldn't take Spanish 1 the last term for having ELA classes, I take Spanish from this term. We have about 15 students in the class, but there are only 2 new comers who take the class from this term, including me. And what's more, I am the only freshman in the class. Though I had learned Spanish before, those facts pressure me a lot and make me worried if I could keep up with other students and also if I could get along with them. So I am mentally very tired recently. I also have to practice playing the piano, for the concert in February. Though it's more than a month from the day of the concert, I chose the challenging score, so it takes me a lot of time to practice. And I am also doing the part-time job in McDonald's and also tutoring!! How hard it is to do all those stuffs!
I sometimes feel I have to give up something (one of the above), to have others successful. However, I cannot choose something to give up, and therefore make efforts to manage everything. I think what help me to manage this difficult situation is the time and co-workers in McDonalds. I have really fun working there with wonderful co-workers. I mean, it takes time and I use a lot of energy to work, of course. But talking with customers and other co-workers realieves me from stress I feel in school, in the dorm, etc. They and time there are really good refreshments for me, that they can make me think things in a positive way (Though I am usually negative-thinking person). They keep me going forward^^
