I am currently stuck in a weird place, and looking for some guidance from those who have been in the same.
I am a month out of graduating from college. I will have a degree in hand and job ahead of me in less than 2 months. I have been going through a bit of a college-life crisis in thinking how many times I will be able to do crazy **** like I have done in the rest of life. In the past few months, realizing this, I have gone on road trips, gotten royally drunk, done questionable things as far as getting in fights, hitting on girls, and other bollocks, and enjoyed myself so far. My fraternity is getting chartered soon thanks to the works I put in and I have been enjoying it. Like, for instance, I went out drinking last night (tuesday night), drank beer with brothers and ended up grabbing a decent looking red head for my troubles instead of doing cardio and preparing for today's workout. As a result, I will probably skip the workout and sleep, then go play poker with my brothers after homework and studying.
Well, now I have realized the toll it has taken on my lifting. I dropped almost 10 lbs (some fat, somehow) and my strength is lacking right now big time, partially because even though my classes are going very well, I am drinking 4 nights a week on a normal week.
So now I am at a bit of a crossroads as far as the rest of the college semester goes. I can focus on classes and lifting, and cut out the social life I have gotten used to in order to get my weight back and 'prepare' for a normal work life, or I can party it up (assuming my classes are in line) and let lifting take a back seat.
So those of you who have gone through the whole thing... what would you suggest? Any insight for the almost newly graduated?
Cheers :beerchug:
