Balance

I remember those times where I prioritize my fan girl life than my studies. And all my hard work  just went down to drain and when I received my card, all I did was to cry my heart out and blame myself for not giving my best and would regret things. But that, happened last year. In short that was in the past. And now I've moved on.

Now I’m in my last year of high school back last summer I was planning my schedule the whole school year. I learned my lessons from last year. I don’t want to repeat it once again. So there I was, made my schedule that studies first before fan girl life. I can “spazz” every night as long as I studied my lessons and finished my homework and duties as a learner. I even made my own passing mark. Instead of 65%, my passing mark was 80% which I passed (my standards in some subjects) and is happy for myself. Card Day arrives and there I saw how I performed for the past more or less 3 months. I was happy for my grades that I even cried for it. All those sleepless nights understanding and internalizing those lessons and sometimes I would sacrifice my fan girl activities were all worth it! Also, I made my parents proud which I’m happy for it.

Now, second quarter starts, I increased my standards once again since I’m not satisfied with my grades in some subjects. And yes, I’m pushing my limits. I won’t rest on my laurels for this school year (mind set)  This is my last year I need to prove to myself, my teachers and my parents what I got. What I have in store and make them proud of me. I’ll show them what’s the product of they have planted in me and I should NOT put their trust and expectation to waste.

Overall, BALANCE is really important in one’s life especially you’re in both worlds (fan girl and student). You can’t have them at the same time. You really need to sacrifice one thing in order to achieve the other.  And balance is one of those million keys that can lead you to success.
