Ahh.....

School has been very chaotic since the very beginning. I think this is mostly to do with the fact that all of my courses are trying to be crammed into two months. Now, while this may benefit some people for me it is not the ideal situation. One reason is I am already an anxious person to begin with so the stress compressed courses come with just makes me on edge all the time, which is not good for me, others around me or my health. Second reason, is all my courses have many pages of reading. Now i normally have trouble completely the readings to a point where i actually understand then now it is almost impossible. I did get all my readings dome for all my courses before my midterms but could not remember half of it. This was evident as the test that was most based on the readings I did the worst on and the one that had no questions based on the readings I aced. So reading texts is not my thing. I would much rather someone tell me it then have to read it for myself. I can easily remember what I hear especially if I am taking notes. So I made it through the week of midterms...I only have one complete breakdown and then just as I predicted as soon as I finished them I got sick. Why must this always happen. So I have been on antibiotics all week and finally finish them today. I have felt sick and tired and pukey all week so I am glad to be finished them. I have not been able to play soccer(even though i went once and paid for it the next day) which means i don't have my normal stress release. To make things worse today I set off the alarm at work for the second time in a month, however this time i was not at my own store.

Looking to the next month things don't seem to be getting any less stressful. I have 2 papers, 1 group assignment and 1 science fair presentation all due within the next two weeks. The week after everything is due my finals start. And the of course the whole time I am going to be fretting about my upcoming practicum. Not good at all. On the bright side, next semester should be a breeze.
