A cry through the looking glass
I haven't updated in a while. This is because of two interesting phenomena: 1. I don't tend to update in months that begin with "M" or "A." 2. I very well may not survive this week.
Why, you might ask, am I not to survive this week? Well, let me tell ya. I have/had an estimated 20-28 pages of academic work due this week in major papers/research projects/lab reports on top of a major biology test worth 20% of my grade on advanced brain functions and neurology as well preparing work for the symposium next week in which I have to present a talk on the field data I collected regarding the role of microinvertebrae as natural bioindicators of stream health and ecology in metro Atlanta and present a paper on the Perspective of Human Nature from Early Theological Thinkers and do some performances for theatre.
On top of all of this, I have been having from 5-6 hour rehearsals every night for the play. On top of this, the PLAY OPENS THIS WEEK!
On top of this, I have to register for classes, meet with advisers, and fight for housing sign-ups.
There is literally no time for sleeping in my schedule this week... only an hour or two of naps occasionally to stop from total collapse.
I am starting to get burned out and will definitely be pulling back a little on my commitments next semester. I think i'm starting to discover my breaking point.
There will assuredly be major celebration/sleeping this weekend. Time to slay my beasts (and no, that is not a sexual euphemism)...
