Split Shift - Split Focus

I am in the middle of a split shift today. I don't love splits. They sort of eat up your whole day. Today I had 2.5 hours in between, usually it's 1.5. I was going to stay at the restaraunt and try to eat something (not really hungry today - shocking, I know!) but my manager asked me if I was sticking around, which meant I would've had to start early again, so I quickly voted no. I will go back a little early and see if I want anything to eat.

I am finding a split focus is my life at the moment. One stream is work, bills, managing my time, money, friends and family. The other stream is art. I find my mind consumed with writing, plots, characters, school and film. It's nice for a person who loves variety to have two equally important things to focus on in life, but I think if I'm not careful, I may end up with a split personality.

Ah well, there are things that help me to balance the catwalk between the two....like Kareoke! Which is tonight. I love Kareoke, especially on Davie Street in Vancouver, it's definately an experience!

That's all for now. Maybe I should order some Split-Pea Soup (Gag me!)

I think it's great that you are being responsible and thinking about bills, work, etc...Screw it, no responsibility go out and spend your money on wine...and that you are learning to manage time...What the hell? Life is short, go out and live it up, worse case scenario you live in your car for a few weeks, it adds to the starving artist mystique. One question, what's this split personality to which you were referring? My friend Binky wants to know as well.
