Week 4

A complicated Week!

                This week I barely slept. I kept finding myself staying up late studying or finishing homework.  I think that this week was mostly complicated because my birthday was Wednesday. The weekend before I went out with some friends to celebrate. I was busy the whole weekend and had no time to do homework. So the workload started to pile up and before I knew it, it was 2:00 am and I had to study for 2 tests and 3 quizzes. Plus my family wanted to go out again on Wednesday for my birthday and I ended up getting home late and having to do homework. My lack of sleep, did not help me with my virtues.  

         I wasn't focusing too much in class because I kept thinking of how nice it would be to curl up in my bed and sleep. My  organizing virtue wasn't too bad, I just lost my pencil pouch and left my greek folder somewhere. I think being committed was the virtue that I best did. I didn't miss a day of volleyball practice even when I had tons of homework and was super tired, I still went.

Week 3

Slowly  Improving

            So far throughout this week I’ve really seen myself improving with my virtues. Last week did not go well for me, I even forgot to do my blog. So, I made a promise to myself that this week I would really work on my virtues. I’ve managed to keep all my books and everything organized. Focusing is really a challenge for me, especially in class. I always go off to my own world and daydream during class. But so far, this week I’ve really been able to focus more in school. I find that participating in class really helps you to stay focused. As for being committed, I feel like I’ve definitely have succeeded with this virtue. There has not been on plan that have canceled or that I’ve said yes to with knowing for sure that I can go. Let’s see for how much longer I can keep this up.

My Not So Successful Experiment

Being Committed 

  

     Throughout the week I was only able to successfully practice the virtue of being committed. I completely failed on being organized and focused. This week I have been committed by going to volleyball practice everyday. I also made plans with friends and I did not cancel on them. Although I have been successful with my virtue of commitment, I don't know how much longer I can keep it up since the reason that I can't be focused and organized is because I have tons of stuff to do and no time. So far I haven't gotten used to getting home late from volleyball practice and starting my homework. I think that I just have to get used to it.My organization skills have been worse than ever, I am constantly losing things, and my desk is cluttered with books and papers. This week I have been completely unfocused especially when I'm doing homework, and its not even my phone anymore. I get up to drink water or use the bathroom and find myself playing outside with my sister.
