Good that it's going by so quickly. Already the birthday weekend with my roomie in the City is upon us and soon the visit from the Alaskan Bear will be here! (I'm just a tad excited)
Bad because it feels like I'm falling over my feet, attempting to squeeze every task in just in the nick of time. Clamoring as gracefully as I can to stand on my feet and breathe as I'm normally gasping for air, drowning in homework, responsibilities, articles, news, exams, practice, and a sea of social events.
Hopefully spring break will be a temporary life vest.
Despite these tremulous feelings, I'm actually feeling quite successful in my writing for class and for The Stony Brook Independent. It's all going swimmingly.
My hope is to drag myself ahead and on top of the game, but does this ever really happen in the life of a student?
Maybe a student who always does assignments way before they are due or one without other responsibilities. Maybe one who doesn't do anything at all.
But for me, I always work better under pressure. I like having deadlines. Do I usually work to the wire in a frenzy caffeine induced terror- yes. Does it produce good work? Generally. Typically not with studying for exams, but with writing, this is very much the case.
Procrastination is key.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm pretty sure I have a quiz tomorrow to study for. And an exam on Wednesday.
Keep up the hard work, whether it is under pressure or not, you always do your best. We are also very excited for your Alaska Bear visit. Alaska Bear ~ it has a nice ring to it. I might have to abscond with that nugget. Would you mind?
