Just dreaming of a less busy, and more busy life

Do you think that would be too much to ask for a little extra time in the day? It seems like just when i think life is busy it gets even busier and my organizational skills and procrastination skills both try to take over. This week so far i have gone to work, gone to class, gone to work, worked out, and then came home to do online class and homework. Literally every day seems to feel like this. Greg Mortenson came to the school on Tuesday, and I got to help be in charge of Ushering in the 2000 people that came to listen to him and it was a great experience. I realized how much i love managing things, and how badly i really would like to do something drastic to help the world in a big way. Sadly though i did not have enough time to meet Greg Mortenson even though there was a 2 hour book signing after and i could have probably gone straight to the front of the line. Right after Convocations ends i have class and i have a huge practicum assignment due tomorrow that i have been working on with a group and couldn't miss, not even to meet Greg Mortenson. I am pretty sad that i didn't just take that opportunity to shake his hand, but i think that i also realized that somehow i can make time for everything. I know that im crazy busy right now but that life isn't going to slow down anytime soon. Hopefully it just keeps getting busier. And if i do ever do something drastic to help the world i will be a thousand times more busy then. (Yes, i do somehow plan on doing something to help the world in a big way.) Last night i told Kaden that i wanted to go to Afghanistan someday to see all of the schools that have been built and the progress that has been made in women's education, not anytime soon, but someday. He said he wouldn't go but that i could ha so im adding that to the list of somedays. I also told Kaden how inspired i have felt by some of the convocations that i have been able to go to and by this one and he said okay so how bout you open schools all over the world and i will  earn money racing to help pay for them. Ha Ha i love my husband. At least he would think of a way to support me if i really did it. Anyways though, i have three papers due in the morning that i haven't started yet. Tonight is definitely the night where my procrastination is winning.
