Getting Back On Track
The past couple of days have been extremely stressful for me, because I have been dodging midterm head shots left, and right. Fortunately for me, my midterms have all been written assignments to be completed outside of class, which has helped in easing the stress of having to deal with drive-by multiple choice exams. Really my work has been cut out for myself, it is just a matter of setting aside the proper time to do it.
Today I revisited the relaxing nature of just taking a breath before plunging my head into freezing water. I might have all of this work to do now, but in a few days it will all be okay. My midterms will all have been turned in, and provided they are of the quality of my usual work, they should be nothing to worry about.
One of the most important things to help keep your gonads out of the vice grip of college stress, is to stay on track with your assignments in the first place. Instead of hitting the Dutch with your friends, hit the books. The sooner you get your work done, the better. Stressing out under the pressure of your school work is about as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. In the end, you are just making yourself realize all of the horrible consequences of not doing your assignments, and that in itself is enough to make anyone want to jump off of the top of a building.
So please my friends, don’t fuck around. Do your school work so we can hang out this weekend and smoke some oregano. Get back on track with your assignments, and you will get back on track with your life.
Love,
Dad
