Quote of the Week :D

"Don't bite off more than you can chew."

      We've all heard this famous quote before. In movies, TV shows, or maybe even a friend mentioned it. Obviously not literal, this quote means you shouldn't take in more than you can handle.

      As an example, not many, but some of the readers may have experienced college. If you take one class, you can easily "chew" that class, as in you can handle it. If you take seven classes, you bit off too much, so you cannot chew your classes. To clear it up, taking seven classes is something you cannot handle. You bit off the classes. The problem is you cannot chew (or deal with) the amount of classes.

     This quote also relates to me. At one point in my life, I did bite off more than I can chew. A few years ago, I was enrolled in karate, ballet, and soccer! It didn't seem like much if they spread across weekdays, but I also had school! Some days were chaos, I had to change in the car to be at karate by three (school ended at 2:30 at my elementary). Thankfully my mom noticed I bit off more than I can chew. I took too many classes, and it was stressful for me.

     Sometimes we all bite off more than we can chew. We try to prevent that, other times we can't help it. But our limits can be different. Which is why I actually know somebody that takes much more hours of activities then I used to, and she's completely fine with it! In no way possible I could handle that today, though. In conclusion, try not to stress yourself out. Just bite as much as you can chew, and don't overwork yourself!
