Tricia;

This semester, I have my Business Plan & Development course, 2 ICs, OJT, and a dance crew to lead. Obviously, it has been really hard for me and my boyfriend since I have to juggle a lot of responsibilities.

I then have decided to give up one. It wasn’t an easy decision for me to make since I love everything that I have to do and have been doing. But I really really had to give up one so as to accomplish whatever it is that I have to accomplish.

I gave up YDC.

I can’t give up my academic responsibilities, not my 500 hrs of OJT, not even my time with Gab.

Yes, my time with him.

It would seem shallow having given up the dance crew so I could spend more time with him but see, he might be leaving for his work and travel this summer. I have OJT on MWFs which means that I come home at 8PM (Thank you Ayala-Buendia-Baclaran-Zapote everyday traffic :|). The only time that would be left for us is our TTh classes together.

Which is not enough.

But of course, he’s not the only reason why I gave up dancing in school. I couldn’t make it at 5PM on Wednesdays and I couldn’t attend Thursday trainings since I would have to be up by 5AM the next day. It just wouldn’t work. I would be dead by Saturday.

It’s not being maarte or OA but considering the kind of job I do at ECCP as an intern… Man, you really have to be physically and mentally more-than-okay. 

So yeah, I had to make certain adjustments but hey! I would not give up dancing totally. I am planning to enroll at this dance school anytime soon. :) That way, I will still be able to dance even on weekends cause if I don’t then I would just be the useless, unproductive, unbalanced version of me. I’ve always believed that if there’s school/work, then there must be dancing (or anything extra-curricular for that matter) too. :)
