Work Plus Study Plus Blog Equals Time

Work.  Study.  Blog.  If there’s one of these three that I would like to give up, it would be -  nothing.  Yes, none at all because I’ve started all of them in diffent periods of time, each has influenced me in many ways.  I have full control to manage those tasks without deteriorating my performance and somehow, I am satisfied with the outcome of my work, study and blogging.  Despite of having control in all of these, I have to deal with the difficulty of having sufficient time for each of them.  Time must be my worse enemy to think of.

While all those three are important to me and time is of the essence, one or either way around would suffer for a cause.  As of this moment, I can only think of minimizing a little time for blogging.  I know you’ll understand why.  I can’t minimize my time for work and study, can I?  I am thinking about ways on how to blog in between break times but I lack the resources.  I have reserved something which might help me sneak time to blog while on the go.  In the meantime, please bear with me if I visit your blog so seldom now.  Until then, may you all have a wonderful week ahead.

    Joy, thanks for understanding. Ganito talaga kapag simula ng klase, pero once naayos na ang lahat ay medyo may space naman. Hehee, you’re the fourth one to greet me with the “ber” month. Likewise. *Hugs, hugs*

    Juler, bopol ako sa math kaya pagpasensiyahan mo na yang equation ko, hehee. Oo, nga, tapos nang olympics kaya mag-blog-hopp ka na uli. Visit ko site mo, luma naman ang post, hahaa!

    Hey there! Kumusta na? Grabeh September na. Sa pilipinas I’m sure labas na lahat ng christmas decor. Anyway, Buti sa u at you have all the time to do all the 3 things above. Ako feeling ko eh laging kapos sa time ayayay! Unfortunately, I have neglected part of my blogging to focus on my non-virtual life. Surviving :)

    Marlene replied on September 3rd, 2008:

    Maricris, like you, kinakapos na rin ako sa oras. Kahit papano ay mas importante pa rin ang non-virtual life natin kesa sa virtual. Kaya blog lang kapag may time.

    of course you need to give priority to what’s more important, and by any means, I don’t think blogging is more important or as important as working and studying!

    blogging should be done in your extra time, it’s not a commitment. :)

    Marlene replied on September 3rd, 2008:

    Farah, so true. That’s what I’m doing now. Trying not to think blogging as important so to get rid of this addiction, hehee!

  7. Well, if given the choice, I would definitely blog all day … LOL!

    You, blogaholic! But good for you, you can blog at work, hahaa!

    I completely get how you feel… it just so tough juggling everything sometimes. At times I don’t get why I even bother to blog because I don’t have the time either, but I can’t seem to stop because it’s so much fun.

    Just do what you need to do first and come back when you’re ready. :) When you do, check out the new video that I posted! Hehehe I’m just in the mood to share my past life with everyone. :P

    Marlene replied on September 3rd, 2008:

    Geezz, Rozella, I did ask this question myself. But there’s only one answer I could come out, it’s this “fun” thing.

    You have another video? Seems you have your life documented, lol!

    As for me, it’s okay lang if you seldom visit blogs… as long as you visit them when you have time at least once or twice a month? haha! Seriously, ako rin I don’t have sufficient blogging at bloghopping time nowadays. Wala pa nga akong post ng September eh anong petsa na?. I’m getting lazier everyday, haha!

    Reply

    Marlene replied on September 3rd, 2008:

    Amor, parang iba naman yata sa yo. Laziness rather than busy-ness, hehee! Siyempre kahit wala akong bagong post ay magbloghopp pa rin ako. Mas madali nga ang bloghopping kesa mag-post, hahaa!

    Amor replied on September 6th, 2008:

    korek! laziness nga, at wala akong maisip na i-post, haha! Parang hindi nga ako blogger kundi bloghopper, bukas grashopper na. Pero ang binibisita ko lang naman ay yung mga bumibisita rin. ;)

    Ahahaha! Halata ba? Grabe yung ibang blogger-friends natin na Pinoy. Halos murahin ako nung sabihin kong hihinto na ko. Ang lagay pala eh kasalanan na ngayon pag tinigil ko ang blogging. lol!

    Amor replied on September 6th, 2008:

    Oo nga eh, nung nabasa ko pa lang yung title ng post nya, naisip ko, goodbye ka jan!

  11. Marlene says:

    Amor,

    Parang ganun lang naman ang easy concept ng blogging kasi. Visit and be visited, otherwise magiging walang kwentang blogger tayo, hahaa! Mas gusto ko pa nga ang bloghopping kesa mag-isip ng ipopost, hehee!

    Halata talagang di totoo ang goodbye ni Jessie, hahaa!

    Oh, caryn, blogging is really addicting, right?

    I visited your blog before but seemed hard to leave comments on livejournal powered blogs.
