Since school started, I’ve gotten sick, over tired and the most recent on that is still bother me, a cold sore. I knew it was going to be stressful but this is a new level. Every other week is something new. The semester isn’t even half way done yet.

This is going to be an overstatement but it’s a true one. I understand that professors are supposed to give out homework to the standards of schools goals for students. But do they not realize that students have more than one class. So not only do we have 4-5 classes, but we might even have a job, we might have friends and family we want to see, we might need to eat, sleep and honestly shower. Even more, some students have kids to worry about as well.

We get all this stuff piled on our shoulders and our minds are revolving around 12 different things and they still expect us to be sane enough to pay attention in class.

Take my english class for example.  my professor gave us a research assignment to do and the next day we were given ANOTHER research assignment. So while we are working on the second one, we have to be thinking about the first one. On top of that, I was working on the first big essay for my other english class. And I had a math quiz also.

But honestly that isn’t so bad. I went through everything quite all right. I just worry a lot. I worry too much sometimes. Hence getting overly tired, and sick.

I know I’ve just passed over a small big bump of the semester, and there is probably going to be a lot more I’m going to be up against. So I’ve decided to have a different outlook. If I don’t, I don’t think I will be able to finish up the semester with a straight mind. Or a good healthy body.

I’ve been stressing out and have been looking negatively at everything. If I didn’t think I was going to be stressing then I wouldn’t have be so negative. In the past, when I’ve gotten all these symptoms, I’ve looked them up. I’ve tried my best to keep up my health so I was not at all happy when the flu/cold struck me or my lip starts hurting up into a cold sore. Stress is one of the biggest factor in them.

So I’m going to turn this around. I cannot be going day by day worrying when I am sick. I do believe that after these 6 last weeks, I will be able to go up against school work stress free. Plus I need to take some time out of the week to relax and do something fun.
