To everything there is a season
Allright, midterm is here, and I'm wondering... is anyone else as stressed as I am?
1)I am sick. Or getting there. and I'm not getting enough sleep.
2)I had a test yesterday, a test this morning, a test tomorrow, a huge paper due Friday, plus my final EGR project and paperwork due tomorrow night by midnight, plus all my normal homework.
3)Marching band is not a stress, but it definitely adds to the stress of my schedule. Plus I DESPERATELY need to practice, especially if I am going to be trying out for Phantom in...a month and a half-ish...
4) I committed and turned in the paperwork for Phantom Regiment's registration a few nights ago... being the paranoid person I am, I am freaking the hell out, as my condition so dutifully notes in my profile.
5)I am trying, desperately, to do Art. I love Art. I will need Art to do an Art Minor. I want to have a wicked awesome Halloween costume. I am ready for Halloween. I am feeling weird Christmasy things already. Thanksgiving needs to stay the fuck away because that's audition weekend (but I love mashed potatoes and turkey). Getting up at 6:30 to work every morning is tiring. Plus staying up to study. Plus not studying enough so I get partially enough sleep to get over being sick. Plus other things. Plus it's alumni weekend and midterm break, so I have to work hard for alumni weekend and there are lots of awkward situations I'm freaking about that I don't have any control whatsoever over, and plus I'm going home but I will have tons of fuck-ass stupid homework, but then I will go shopping-mad on Tuesday for Halloween happy things, such as thrifting for costume parts, and drive my wonderful Parotthead-mobile again, dearhowImissyou. And I will listen to Buffett in the car, and wear my favorite t-shirt, and go watch the marhcing band practice after school on Tuesday. And the goddamn elevator is broken and people are rude. And there are many things I am tempted to buy online (costuming perfection!) but they are muy expensive and I feel bad when I spend a lot of money, even though I usually just hoard it (there is the green bottle, and the witch hat, and the REAL cutlass, and the many other things). And there is never enough time for art... and I have so many ideas but never enough time to write them down... Plus by body is being...ah...irregular. It is most confusing and at some times unpleasant. (IS 700% OF MY DAILY VITAMIN C, NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU, BODY? WTF!)
life=time
life=things to do
time - things to do=0
0= stress!
(all values are approximate)
All in all... there are many days I wish I could quit school and go do art. But I would hate myself for refusing education! I love to learn! I process information for my art, which I will be doing later on down the line... art minor and architecture, you seem sooooo far away...
But at least being fuck-ass busy keeps the time moving (quickest week ever!) and prevents me from thinking about any emotional thoughts that are not at ALL practical for me. Yes, I know, you need emotion, but PRACTICALITY, DAMMIT, these emotions use me up and throw me in a little ball in the corner when I could be getting so much more done! like I am this week.
Oh, crap, another to-do: pack for the weekend...
=^n.n^= That got quite extensive, my apologies.
The pros to this situation are certainly plentiful and I do love them a lot, they just seem soooooo far away compared to the cons at the moment. *le sigh*
