Piggy Fit

I need to offer myself a great big punch to the forehead because I have been HORRIBLE about my studies in the past week or so. It's not that I don't want to learn, it's just that I've been busy. Sometimes I feel like my spirit has been forged of 10,000 spare parts of other spirits, and so I feel the desire to do far more than any one human can reasonably expect to accomplish in a lifetime.

I have not been practicing Korean every night as I had been, some how I got distracted by working out.... Did I just say DISTRACTED by WORKING OUT? Is that NOT one of the most BORING activities on the planet? I should weep for myself, but I'm not going to. ... somehow I got distracted by working out and have been doing so more or less every night after work. By the time I get home I am faced with the difficult choice of investing what little time remains before I absolutely MUST sleep to be functional the next day in the day in study, social interaction, and a slightly early (and likely healthier) trip to slumberland. For the most part social interaction and sleep have been winning.

So yes, I pray to the Korean Language Learning gods and say "I have been bad, and I have sinned, but I hope that you press the treads of your hiking boots to by pasty white bottom as a means of sending me out of your great and majestic chapel."

.. or something like that.

Seriously though, I do plan to continue with my studies in Korean, and I have in fact met with Kyounghea for grammar lessons, but I have to learn how to manage my time between work, exercise, taking care of myself, having a social life, and playing the violin. Until I figure out the best way to do this I suspect my attention will be spotty.
