Stress
This week has been incredibly stressful. There have been issues with family and friends. The family issues are pretty much cleared up....or in that direction at least. The issues with friends are really their issues, but I hurt when my friends hurt. I had two tests this week on which I think I did okay. I am also sick. It started as a scratchy throat, then invaded my sinuses... not good. I felt absolutely horrible yesterday (Thursday). I just did not want to study. So, Rachel, Lindsey, (my roommates) and I cleaned the kitchen. Then we had tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches made with Velveeta cheese (Velveeta is the BEST on grilled cheese b/c it melts so much better/creamier than other cheese). I went to bed around 12 or 1... This morning I went to my statistics lab (9:30-10:30) and then stayed on campus and studied until my test at 2. I am taking economics online which is going okay, except that we have to go to campus to take the actual tests. I find this a little odd but oh well. No one can come in my room during the tests and distract me this way. After that I came home and turned my phone off and went to sleep!!! I NEVER turn my phone off, but this past week left me feeling really exhausted. I slept until about 7pm which is probably why I am still up writing this at three something in the morning. Jamie and I rented a movie and Eric came over, but for some reason we never actually watched it...oh well. We start discussing things and since we have different views on things, it is....well, interesting. Jamie and I ordered Chinese, and the delivery guy called when he got to the apartment complex to ask what the apartment number was. It took about 15 minutes and Jamie, Lindsey, and me talking to him to figure out what he was asking us. It's ok though b/c he found us. It was funny though when I picked the other phone back up to continue talking to Megan (who was listening to our end of the conversation with the Chinese guy) and she asked what was going on... I said "oh, we ordered Chinese, but we lost the Chinese guy." When I am sick things come out weirdly. Jamie and Eric left about midnight or one. Lindsey and I talked until 3am about everything. She just moved in the me and Rachel after Christmas. She is in the PT assistant program at Jeff State, so she goes to bed early so the she can wake up early and she works. I am really glad that she stayed here tonight instead of going home. We had a really good talk; she is a really awesome and sweet girl. This roommate situation is working out really well. Anyway, I need to go to bed b/c Mom will be up here at about 10am. She is staying with me tomorrow night and is going to make enchiladas for me!!!
I did learn something from the problems of others this week. I am very blessed. I have a great and very supportive family that will do pretty much anything for me and my happiness. I have awesome friends, roommates, and soroity sisters! I realized the other day that if I needed help, there are quite a few people that I could call. School is going okay although I could be doing better. I have fun doing commmunity service and other stuff with my sorority. I am lucky enough to be able to call my ex-boyfriend a friend rather than an ex. And I am lucky that my relationship with him ended(2 years ago)relatively well and ultimately made me wiser and stronger than I was when I entered it instead of leaving me with the impression that all men are evil. I have great friends that I grew up with and know me inside and out, my family, and why I am who I am. New friends are great too, but there is just something comforting in having those friends who know everything about you and your past, so that if anything from your past comes up you don't have to explain anything and they just understand. ---And being blessed in these ways, along with God is what keep me sane through weeks like these. Goodnight...morning...
