Quid Pro Quo
Posted by Aragoen Celtdra on 27th October 2008
Didn’t do much studying this weekend as I had planned. I had this grand plan to drill down IS-IS even deeper this weekend by spending at least 12 hours of solid studying. In the end I wound up spending probably 2 hours in all two days.
I did get to spend a lot of time with family though. And on Saturday, I couldn’t pry myself away from all the good college football matchups. On Sunday, my wife, son and I slept a little too long and missed our usual 7am Mass so we ended up going to Church later that day. By the time we had free time in the afternoon, my wife and I just watched all our recorded shows on DVR from the previous week, while the 2 year old took his afternoon nap.
All in all it was fun and relaxing. But I would’ve liked to have put in a few more hours of productive study time.
My work schedule has changed so my study routine will also change a little bit. I’m not sure if I like it too much but so far I found that it gives me and my family more time to hang out together on a daily basis. I now work from 7 to 4. Previously I worked from 9-6. The old schedule worked out pretty well for me then because I was able to study 1.5 to 2 hours before work and 2-3 more hours at night. Now I’m only able to do it about 3 hours at night. The posiitive is, my wife and I no longer drive two cars to get to work. Since she is able to drop me off at work and pick me back up we will save considerable money from less gas usage. At the same time we get to catch up on life talks while driving. Since we started doing that, my son also seem to be more excited. He loves family trips in the car… I think 
. The only down side to that is that, because we leave home earlier, I don’t get to study in the morning anymore – my favorite and preferred time to study. When I get home I’m usually tired and am unable to digest more information by then.
I’ll just see how this new schedule works out. Things always seem to fall into place anyhow. They always do.
