Sometimes we need friends to give us advice we don't want

So I was going crazy.  All I could think about was how much stuff I had to do and how little time I had to do it.  Then, it got worse.  The weekend happened.  So, naturally I was trying to get everything done the last day of it.  And nothing was working.  My mind wandered, I couldn't focus on anything.  I looked at my textbook sitting on my bed next to me and I wanted to cry.  Instead, I got angry.  Angry at everyone and everything.  Angry that I had so much to do and no one was helping me.  Angry that the printer didn't do what I thought I told it to do.  Angry that I needed to make dinner.  Angry that the weekend was over and I didn't feel relaxed.  Angry that I had to go to school, where it was going to get worse, not better and I was going to get further and further behind, while I scrambled to try and learn things and be successful and not go crazy.

So, here I am.  I have come to a decision.  Not really momentous, but it kind of feels that way, sort of.  I am going to drop a class.  Calculus 2, in fact.  Unfortunately, I can't leave it forever, I will have to take it sometime.  But that sometime doesn't have to be today.  I will probably be taking it next summer, which totally sucks.  But at least it's not right now.

I'm relieved. 

Down to 12.5 credits and I can really do this ^_^
