Stress

This will be easier than last year they said, it will be fun they said. Whoever said that about senior was probably drunk, a genius or never went through senior year. You may think, 'get over yourself' but even in comparison to last year I'm already far surpassing my previous stress levels.

If I can't even fully cope with my exams, then I can't quite comprehend how I am supposed to even think about food, let alone any semblance of mental stability. How do people juggle those kinds of things? I've completed all of my work load but as soon as its done I have no memory of how to do any of it and so the stress sets in. I almost crashed twice today, and that is why they advise that you only drive when you have a cleared mind. Normally sleep is hard to achieve, but I believe that I've slept more in the past couple of days than I usually would in over a month. Caffeine? Five cups of coffee and I could still collapse with little effort. As demonstrated by my five hours in the middle of the day today.

I don't want this year to end because that would mean that I would actually have to plan for the future but at the same time, I don't want to have to deal with any of this anymore.
