Try Harder

Okay, so I have been a bad blogger. I barely ever update. I'm sorry! A few times over the last month I've sat down to blog, and thought a bit about what's been happening in my life, and realised that even though I'm really busy and there's lots going on, I can't really blog about it. I'm currenty in the middle of Union elections, coordinating a campaign, and while this is a huge and exciting task that someone should really blog about someday, I really can't do it. I know it's not exactly as though my blog has some huge following or anything, but elections stuff is really sensitive. And elections are a BIG deal. And student politicians get leaked info from EVERYWHERE. I really can't go giving things to people by posting stuff about our campaign on my blog. Other than that our team is going really well, we have an awesome group of people, and now that we're working on learning campaign skills and doing hand-on workshops, everyone is super-excited!

So I will just have to blog about the other things in my life - which is probably good, because it forces me to try harder to remember there ARE other things in my life! Like the boy - who is feeling very neglected of late. We have fought several times, even just in the last week, about how I never have time for him anymore. I tell him I'm sorry, and I actually do make a huge effort to make time for us to spend together. The main difference is that this year, we have to plan to any time we have together, whereas last year there was some freedom to be spontaneous. I've asked him please to wait for me - we've come so far together, and been through so much; it's only a few short months until my term in office is over, and then things will settle down somewhat.

I only hope that by saying this, I'm not lying unintentionally. I don't really know how busy next year will be (if I get into med school), and my free time is only going to become more limited as the years progress. I love him so much, I only hope he can understand. I will always do whatever I can to show him how much he means to me, and I hope this is enough.

We have spent some time together this weekend, which is good. I think he is feeling somewhat reassured now. I hope this lasts - the next month is going to be really tough.
