Journal 51: Best Laid PLans

I have always romanticized things that I plan to do. I would dream about exactly how I am going to achieve my goals and believe that it would be the way that things will turn out. However it is hardly ever what I think it will be and never do I learn the lesson. I was assigned to produce a important video for my school. I planned every that I needed to film, when I needed to film it, and of whom I am to ask to participate. Finally the "shooting" week rolls along and the people who I asked to take part of the video slowly show up, only to tell me that they can't make it. My plans are ruined I had to squeeze in time where I had none just to cooperate with the people who are suppose to make time for me, not the other way around. I was really disappointed. What I thought was going to be a breeze with everything going to plan went all wrong and I had to end up  rushing the final product. good thing it turned out alright. I had to work after school on the video and editing took a lot more time that I thought it would have too. Even though I know that romanticizing is bad I still do it because only then would I have the motivation to do something, there is always a chance that things will go as planned.
