tired and tired
Like most other weeks, this one has been busy. I’m staying positive, but I think that’s a side effect of the growing insanity (crazy Crusty the Clown laugh).
I’m pretty stressed. I took one midterm on Tuesday and I have a take-home exam due on Monday. I also have a Microeconomics midterm and a group paper and presentation due on Tuesday. On Wednesday, I have Statistics and Accounting homework due which I guess I’ll have some time to complete on Tuesday night while I’m not out trick-or-treating. It will suck hard until next Thursday, but I’ll be okay. Sure, I’ll be okay.
Danny is helping to keep me sane. We eat dinner together each night and he pops into the bedroom to see how I’m doing. I feel really bad for ignoring him, but at least I’m in the same house. I could be at the library ignoring him from afar. See how generous and thoughtful I am?
I know that everything will work out okay in terms of tests and grades, but my main source of stress is just trying to get all of my homework done. I don’t have time to stress over my tests because I have too much other daily work to deal with. For example, I just spent the last three hours writing and editing my component of a team paper as well as integrating all of the other parts into a cohesive flow of ideas. I really like this kind of work, but it is taking its toll on my body. When I get stressed, my neck aches. I get these terrible knots in my neck and shoulders and exercising and massage are the only things that help. I’ve continued to exercise twice a week, but my workouts are brief and they can’t really diminish the tightness in my neck. Maybe I can do some yoga while I’m waiting for my bus.
I am enjoying school a lot though. The work schedule is hellish but at least the people are cool. As for me, I’m the coolest of them all. Well, except for the movie maker and the crab fisherman. I can’t top those, at least not yet.
