Me + Stress= Chaos

Dec 07, 2004 16:03

I'm feeling very scattered this week. Mostly I've been rushing around from one thing to the next, trying desperately to finish assignments on time and study hard for finals. Eating is an inconvenience. Yesterday on my way to dinner, I was dazed out; with my thoughts already ahead planning what to do next and I forgot to pay attention to where I was walking. I completely missed the curb and fell with a bruising force on the pavement. I managed to break the worst of the fall with my hands, but my knee hit the concrete in quick succession. Now I have a dark brown bruise the size of one and half baseballs on my knee.

I get to the point when I'm stressed out that I don't like to think too far ahead. It's hard to imagine that in two and a half days from now I will be completely done with all my classes, because frankly Friday seems so far away. There are so many things I must get done before Friday. How I would like to lazily watch the days slip away from me until the weekend. I can almost see it glowing like a beacon. Just a couple more days I tell myself. Unfortunately, I have two more exams and a portfolio to deal with and my consciousness is forever updating me on what I should be doing next.

Darn conscience. I don’t think I deal well with stress.

May the rest of you be gifted with less hectic week.
