good better best

tis the season...for finals.

Although for the average student, finals week is well, finals week.

For a Hospitality student, we get three weeks.

1. For all the Projects due.

2. For all the tests in HTM classes.

3. For all the business class finals during normal SDSU finals week.

This makes nearly a month of cramming, freaking out, procrastinating and oh yeah, studying.

Have I convinced you to switch majors yet?

Anyways, as you may guess tis also the season for to-do lists

color coded, highlighted and organized lists. 

its a matter of survival really. 

What have I learned from all this madness?

It is OKAY to say no. 

I am an eager human being, ready to take on every new adventure.

but rather than juggle 37 commitments with grace and perfection.

I tend to drop a few or many.

a dear friend of mine told me the other day,

"say no to what is good so you can say yes to what is better"

isn't that the truth.

there are lots of good things, but there are also a whole lot of better things.

better commitments, better opportunities, better relationships.

it's scary to let go of something good,
but be reminded that if your not totally confident about a choice,
 there is most likely a better option for you, if you wait a little and work a lot. 

in fifth grade, my teacher had a quilt on the wall that said:

"good better best, never let it rest, until your good is better and your better is your best."
That has been a constant reminder in my life to always look forward.

thats all folks.
