through the trial of fire i am reborn
And by fire I mean sickness and stress.
Yes my dears it is that time again. It is finals time. Two down and one more to go for me. I think I might have overestimated my powers of multitasking (which are considerable) because I feel like between my TWO jobs and trying to write 10 essays I just don't have time to breathe or think. It's showing because i've been sick with a random cold for almost a week and a half. That is not good. Plus, i'm pretty sure i've just stopped eating at this point. It's getting bad; today I had a muffin and water for breakfast, for lunch i had part of a salad, orange juice, and a forkful of pasta, and for dinner I had jalapeno chips and coffee. Speaking of coffee... I need to run to the Union and get a refill before 9:30. Yes, yes I am on a caffeine schedule. Its quite sad actually.
Anyways, but yea. So finals always gives me a cold because stress depresses your immune system. I don't know why; you'd think that would be a time when your that immune system goes into overload to protect you. Oh well.... such is biology. Oh lets not even discuss my neurobiology test. I don't want to think about it. All I know is that I need a 73 to get a B in the class and we're lighting candles and praying that I got that. But positive thoughts.
Ugh. I had a small panic attack last/this morning. I just don't know if i'm going to be able to get all these essays done. Plus there are two topics that really confuse me and i'm scared she's going to pick those two to put on teh test. (Oh did I mention she posted 10 topics and she is chosing three for us to write on?) The good thing is I can write everything out ahead of time and just copy it down the day of the final. *sigh* Yea i've already decided i'm not going to go to sleep tonight. I mean really... what would be the point? I'm only on essay 2 of 10 right now. At least I have an outline of some type for most of them. Ugh, ugh, ugh. I love this class (Poli 73: Politics of Sexuality", but damn Conover. This final is a little ridiculous.
Oh well, I feel better now that i've ranted. Now its time to choke down another Vitamin C, blow my nose, and get back to work.
