Father Time is a Pain

Time never feels perfect. It either goes by slowly or quickly. The sad thing is it goes by quickly when you need more time; slowly when you need less time. It seems like Father Time just wants to play with us...in a very obnoxious way. 

This last Saturday I debated in four rounds. In each round, my time to speak always felt like it just passed without letting me to finish my arguments. Between each round, I had an hour, two hours, to rest. I didn't that much time! I just wanted to debate and leave. That day I was Father Time's joke. 

Although Father Time was a pain that day, I learned a valuable lesson: time needs to be managed wisely whether or not it goes by slowly or quickly. This applied to my speech time, homework time, etc. 

Time never feels perfect. It either goes by slowly or quickly. The sad thing is it goes by quickly when you need more time; slowly when you need less time. It seems like Father Time just wants to play with us...in a very obnoxious way...but we need to be head of it by managing our time.

The school provides us with complimentary agendas. We need to make use of it and organize our time with it. I have seen people who scribble in their agendas; others never look at their agendas. It’s time to make our agendas agendas, not sketch pads. 

So my summary of this post is that we need to manage our time to the best of our capability. Time will never be perfect...as I have been saying over and over and over. In my last twenty words, I would like to encourage you to be a time manager. In my last two words, good luck.
