Why fight the urge to start new projects today? If you feel the need to do something new, then do it. Who cares if you don't exactly have all the time in the world to take it on? There will never be a period in your life when you have all the time you need to do whatever you want, so waiting for it is pretty silly. You'll do fine juggling a new relationship, endeavor or job right now. Just believe in yourself and have fun with it. Your good attitude will take you a very long way.
