(no subject)
i have so many posts to make!
it's weird how quickly the student guilt is beginning to lift. between semesters, it would always be just as the next was starting that i would at last feel unburdened, only to be burdened again. i assumed it would take at least a month, but no... it's less than a week after finishing my final exam and i'm free from that base level of stress that all students feel, that sense that even when the body is at rest, the mind isn't, that there is always something that i should be reading or writing or studying or doing.
i thought it would be months before i picked up a book. i'm starting slowly but massively... i'm 100 pages into the crimson petal and the white and i'm remembering the things i read and enjoying them in a way i haven't been able to for years.
