Dear readers
Feb. 10th, 2003 03:59 pmSo, I've been slacking off on these journals lately. A lot of it has to do with stuff eating up all my time and attention, and there doesn't seem to be any end in sight for it all. But I'll get through in the end, one way or another. It's times like these that we actually know what we're made of. I know this won't be the last hectic time in my life, and it's not even the first, so it's time for me to step up. I have so much to say, though, so in the style of others, I will break it into sections.
Physical: I started PFD last week, and realized to my chagrin that I couldn't even swim ten laps (not even laps, by ten I mean down and back five times each) in twelve minutes without fighting to keep moving and resting at each turnaround. Some may have to do with my style, because I also felt my neck straining to keep my mouth and/or nose out of the water so I could keep breathing, but still, I should be better off than that. That, combined with the fact that just a few pushups and situps had my shoulders and abs aching for days later. I need to get back onto that bandwagon.
Mental: Not much news. Chemistry sucks as usual, physics and math and hum proceed. Sadly, starting this Friday, I will have (at last count) four tests in just over a week: Linear II on Friday, Physics on Tuesday, Chem on that Thursday, then Discrete passed out that weekend to be due the next Monday. None of those tests should pose much of a problem except perhaps Chemistry.
Emotional: Stable as always. I'm happy with how things are going, and how people seem to be holding themselves together (or, in certain cases, coming together) well. Not much more to say on that - being one of my most stable traits, my emotional state also tends to be among what I can articulate the least about.
Social: Been acting reclusive lately and noticing it more than usual. I wish I was the kind of person that could get out and mingle with people, but I never can manage to bring myself to. I just don't feel right standing in crowds of people talking at random. However, Rocky Horror rehearsals start tomorrow, which will leave me very little time to notice these things. I did manage to be cast as Riff Raff, so it will be a significant time suck.
So - no rest for me. I've got an hour and a half to plug away on that physics lab, including redoing the graph a bit.
