Because I Have Time for This

Do I have time for this?
Really, I don't. I've got a Statistics final tomorrow, a JavaScript final on Wednesday, and then I'm done with school. For the semester. Only to return to more school (albeit just one course) the beginning of June.

Being done with school used to mean great big gaps of time where all I had to do was wonder what fun thing I'd do next. Or sleep. Ahhh.... sleep. What I should be doing right now.

But now, being done with school means I start other things: The business. Oh. Oh. Oh. The business. Yes, the business. I just hope I like this business (I think I will once I get everything streamlined). Right now - oh right now - it's a lot, a lot, a LOT of planning. And planning. And more planning.

And then more planning.

But it's okay. Things are coming together. Quite how I hadn't exactly expected them. But really, when put that way, what was I really supposed to expect? (That was somewhat redundant, probably confusing, and, truth be told, I didn't know what to expect. So, obviously, things are not happening how I expected them to, since I didn't know how to expect them in the first place.) Way to go off on a tangent, self...

It probably wouldn't be quite as stressful if I hadn't decided to build my own website for the business. It seems to have become half the battle, if not more.

But really? What was I going to do? Me, a web major hire someone else to build it for me?

Psssh. Right. Though, I may have to break down and ask for assistance in areas that I am not yet knowledgeable about.

So - the question is - do you have time for your this? It'd probably be a good idea to figure out just what this is. Then, do you want to spend your life (or a fair portion of it) doing this? Personally (and this is my rationale through all this planning madness), I think I've known for years that photography is my this. I was just waiting on money, maturity, and a decent dSLR before I could actually embark on this.

I might have asked you to wish me luck. Nah. But I wouldn't turn down a prayer. This is all happening because, I hope and pray, He wants it to in the first place.

Peace.
