My brain is to the point of actually hurting from studying. Sometimes I just hit a point where focusing is just so hard. I have two tests tomorrow and there is so much information to learn for both of them that my mind is starting to shut down because I don't want to deal with it. This semester is already proving to be tough because not only will there be tests but lots and lots of homework. How did I survive all the other semesters?
So, this is my break. I have to be in at work by 4 and I figure taking a half hour to not find the definition of ethnography, what the half-life of carbon is, or what strategies will increase my life by x% will be okay. I just feel like there's so much I don't know that I'm starting to worry about how I'll do on these tests. There's just so much.
Last night I sent in my application to Catawba, all my transcripts will be in by tomorrow and I will receive a response in three weeks as to whether or not I'll be attending. I just started to think about the chances of not getting in. Honestly, this is the only school I want to go to. How much would it suck if I couldn't go? But I'm so relieved to have everything on its way. All worries aside, I'm very excited. For all the times I think about not getting in, I triple that with thinking of getting in. Optimism.
The worst part of taking a break is taking my break to think about how much time I'm wasting by taking a break.
If I had some coffee this break would be complete. Then it would be a coffee break. If I had some cheese and bread it would be a grilled cheese coffee break. And then add a book and... wait, what was I talking about?
The sizzle you hear is not the cheese burning, it's my brain.
