Oh, it's probably definitely knocking me up 0.5-1 point on the scale. But I never really handle stress well, no matter when it comes during the month. But yes.. definitely doesn't help.. especially with the crampsTufak wrote:Crystal - Not that I know much about this stuff...but maybe that's part of why you're reacting so badly to the stress right now?
As for right now.. I have 4 more lectures to go through tonight.. my goal is to get them done in the time it takes me to watch Avatar (extended collectors edition...). Then I'll have time to actually relax and play a little bit... A little WoW.. and then maybe some Fable before bed (so I won't be distracted by friends starting convos just when it's my bedtime, since my midterm is at 8:30am tomorrow...
So that's my plan... Having plans helps manage the stress a LITTLE.. keeps me from say.. going into a full blown attack (like.. think silent screaming, violent pacing, etc etc) over something small.. like not having time to make the pasta I REALLY want to make tonight... Even if they aren't very much of a plan..
