This is the first weekend after my first week at my new job. I had a nice break between Portland Code School and my new gig at CrowdCompass. But now that old feeling of the weekend rush is back and I’m right back into it. I feel like there must be some kind of time-management trick I never quite learned for making the most of evenings and weekends while getting the necessary amount of rest.

What’s funny is that during my break I also took a break from my side projects. I didn’t work on anything for the last couple of weeks. Now that my week is occupied with my new job, I also feel like getting back to them. When I felt like I had more time to do what I wanted, I did less of what was important to me.

I’m not guilting myself over this, I needed the break. The break was an opportunity to work on some projects, but it was needed for rest and recuperation.

Anyway, I have learned some neat new stuff which I will take up again soon. First project, updating blog, done. Next up, working on Starmaze for the browser.
