Overload

This time of my life has been incredibly busy, but since I have been typing so much, it seemed reasonable to type an entry :)
I feel kind of bad right now. I did a no-no. I went over my advisor's (for the campus newspaper) head about an issue. After I did that, I was approached by the big boss I had talked to and told that I had not gone through the chain of command properly.
When he first informed me I wanted to cry. Then I wanted to defend myself. Then I wanted to be mad. Then I felt embarrassed.
Finally, I decided it was a good learning experience that is better learned now, then later. And everyone makes mistakes - sometimes I am way too hard on myself. In kind of an irrational way, too.
Well, I know that I would have really over-reacted in the past and beat myself up about what I did. Fortunately, I realize its not a big deal and in all honesty, I haven't been properly trained in how a student organization runs anyway. This is my training time I guess . . . when the rubber hits the road.
