Keeping Promises
It's unexpected, but last week went rather well. I had appropriately psyched myself up for it, and thus the late nights and extra stuff didn't surprise me. I got it all done, too. Then, Sunday came, and I did very little. Monday and Tuesday followed suit, except I did nothing semi-on-purpose. The way I see it, I surrendered to the semester. However, I can't do that until next Wednesday. Back into the paper-writing I go!
This week is remarkably like last week, except I have fewer rehearsals and less mental preparation. It might have broken my spirit to think of two weeks instead of one, but this week is turning into the mantra "It's just one more" much more than the last one did. I'm finally ready to (start and) finish those last two papers. There are also three more performances to go. Everything is neatly halved. This is all I seem to think about.
In my rather desperate bid to avoid everything these past 3 days, I managed to knit a few more rounds of my bag. The cable pattern is very cool. I may continue this as a relaxing activity, but I don't expect a lot of progress in the next seven days.
To sum up: Last week was good, but now I'm tired, stressed, and behind. Wish me luck.
