Stress

Apparently if you're not stressed, you should see two dolphins in this photo. At this point of the year, I think I'm seeing two cows. Its just gotten to that crappy(excuse my non-professional language Colin!) time of year where everything is happening at once. God knows we shouldn't be complaining because we have a month off after this to save for rag week (us poor students). Its not that I mind exams or anything, I actually don't, they've never bothered me that much (which is probably why I'm not studying Psychology like I'd always planned). But that said, I actually like this course, so I shall proceed to take out the proverbial finger and get cracking.

My point is, two weeks of mind-numbing stress could be avoided if things were spaced out. I know the minute you get back to college in September, the lecturers are yapping on about revision revision revision, but how many students do you know that actually do that. Things are inevitably left until the last minute. And not just on our part. I was starting to think I was on the easiest course in the world. Up until the end of October our lecturers were telling us how great we were doing, that we we were all fantastic, when we hadn't actually done anything. Then when we got back after the mid-term, EVERYTHING happened at once. We had C.A's to hand in, tests I didn't know we had to do and it was just madness. That said, I work better under pressure, but still I think if things were a bit more spread out, it would make things a lot easier. But at least its the last week of term now, a stressful week, and then holidays for a month, and a trip abroad! Who says life isn't good?

But for those of you who feel they may need help to un-wind and relax, have a look at http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Top-10-Steps-to-DeStress&id=6506 and see if it helps.

Over and out.
