About Me
I am Christy Hayes, and I have lived in Mobile all my life. My major interests include mostly summer activities. I love riding the jet ski, tube, knee-board and wake-board. I have been raised on the water and love spending my summers at Presley's. I love doing this because it is family oriented and what I enjoy most. I am attending South because it is the nearest school that has an education program. I tend to do better in a classroom versus online. My parents worked a lot as a child to provide for my sister, brother and myself. Therefore, we weren't able to do many sports or activities. My mom got a job at the school board and was able to be with us more which was awesome. The schedule of a school teacher is amazing when you have children because you are off when they are and don't have to work late at the office. I love children and want to help in any way possible. Most children just want to have someone there to help them and I want to help them succeed in anyway possible. As a high school student I volunteered a lot at my mom's school and helped teachers in every way possible with the students and I truly enjoyed it.
I was currently engaged last December and will be getting married the end of June this year. Luckily I have most of the planning done because it seems as if this class will consume the majority of my summer. I have a two-year old little boy named Brodie who is my motivation for everything. I have an amazing and supportive family and would not have made it this far if it weren't for them. My fiancé is truly amazing and supports me in whatever decisions I may make and I have been truly blessed to have such a great support system. To me family is everything!!
Procrastination
Procrastination is what catches up with me most. I find that I put off everything until last minute which causes me to stress even more in the end. I definitely agree that I procrastinate because I have poor time management. It is very hard to go to school full-time, work part-time, be a mommy and do other daily tasks so I find myself very tired at the end of the day. I put things off because I am easily distracted and it is very hard for me to concentrate on one thing. There were several helpful tips given in this exercise. Some of the tips were things I would do, like getting to comfortable while studying, that I shouldn't have been doing. I would get to comfortable and then I would start daydreaming, therefore further delaying the task at hand. With everything I have going on I just need to break everything down into small chunks so that accomplishing them will seam a little more realistic.
