Decisions, decisions.

Last term, I'd a torrid time, mainly because I had trouble juggling all my commitments. This term I vowed that I'd drop whatever I could not manage, hoping not to burn myself out again. Well, I obviously didn't succeed in that.

There've been waaaaay too many things that I've wanted (and many others that I haven't) to do, the latest in the long line being the Zero-Limits Expedition trip. I'd really give an arm and Lance's too to go on the trip - it's a 3-week long trip to France, much of which will be spent cycling, from Paris all the way to Montpellier. Many of you would probably know that I was formerly a cycling nut, at least till I got hit by a car. There's no way in the world I would pass on this opportunity.

Unless of course, I knew that I wouldn't be able to cope with the training, especially with rugby already taking up so much of my time. Trainings are thrice a week, with training expeditions to Desaru and Indonesia in the pipeline. I really don't know if I should go ahead and do what my heart tells me to do - just heck care and go ahead with it - or do what a rational person (who's already bogged down enough as it is) would do and just push it out of mind. Of course going on the trip would also encompass significant financial investment, not least on equipment and reworking of the ol' bike; all the more reason not to go, then.

BUT I'm not reasonable! And I'm already leaning so hard towards the trip that I'm just about ready to fall down the cliff of overcommitment.

Bah. Decisions.
