26.Mar.2009 Life – the whirlwind

life has been crazy busy lately.

i recently picked up 2 tutoring jobs – which have turned out to be great experiences. one is university level statistics (2nd year course), the other is a grade 5 student for math and English.
It’s keeping me busy – and making me realize just how much I’m into this teaching thing. I love being able to explain things (in different ways) to these students, and I’ve had great support and feedback along the way.

hobbies are on hold right now, which makes the artist in me go a little crazy on a daily basis. I’ve realized that in all this hustle and bustle that i need a creative outlet.

I had my camera in hand yesterday taking some pictures of the house – and I took a small tangent to take some pictures of my keyboard. It was fun while it lasted – but I wish I had more time.

I walk past my guitar everyday – it even has new strings on it – and it totally calls out to me to come play it. My songbook is on hold right now too; but I imagine it will take a long time to gather some of my fave songs.

Websites are also on hold – I have been contracted to work on a website for a company “GreenInsights” hopefully I can get that up and running by early May. That’s my goal/deadline.

I have even put Twitter on pause these last few days – example – today, i’m just getting around to checking it now. With 200+ tweets – i just don’t have time, they will have to sit on my TweetDeck for next time.

What I have been able to do is listen to music. I’ve made it a point to update my iPod more than once a week – keep things fresh while I’m on the go. Taking advantage of my iPod car holder, and ear buds btwn classes.
Top 3 tunes right now:
MGMT – Electric Feel
Imogen Heap – Goodnight and Go
Joshua Radin – One of those Days

Now back to wrapping up a paper – it’s 12:50 and my goal is done by 2am MAX!

wish me luck world
