Time Management
I'll admit, I've never been good at managing my time. I'm a horrible procrastinator, and tend to put leisure in front of things that need to be done. And I can't really help it. I've always been this way. But I've noticed that this problem of mine has multiplied since discovering ponies.
Don't get me wrong, MLP is the best thing to have ever happened to me. When I discovered the show in October, I was on breaking point. I'd just had a horrible breakup, and frankly, I had fallen into a depression based on that and the sudden absence of anything meaningful to occupy myself with (The musical I had been in had just ended.) MLP saved me from myself. However, I think that as a result, I developed a bit of a pony obsession.
I didn't notice until recently how fast time has flown since I joined this forum in November. It's like my real life is here, in the forum, and in Equestria, and everything else is inconsequential, which is a dangerous mindset to have in college. I put off doing homework for participating in my roleplays; I deny myself the chance to be social by burying myself in my dorm room, on the internet. I just haven't figured out how to balance ponies with my regular life.
How do you do it? How do you manage the delicate balance between ponies and reality? And how would you advise that I might fix my own priorities? Because doing so is not as easy at it seems...
