Major stress

So how many people are leaving campus after midterms for fall break? I know I am. My mom is coming to pick me up on Friday and we are heading to Chicago for a fun weekend of doing whatever the hell we feel like.

Sadly, there are a few things standing in the way of being able to fully enjoy my weekend. First, I have to study for my midterms, which really sucks. Especially when we are at least one class behind in all but one of my classes. That makes it a little difficult to know hwat to study for.

The other thing standing in my way is something that I alone might find a difficulty. Despite the fact that I do it all the time, I really hate doing my homework at the last minute. Procrastination is an art form, and one that I have mastered very well. But I hate the stress. So I decided that I would get all homework done through Tuesday after midterms done so that I would be able to go to Chicago without worrying about the amount of homework I have to do when I get back.

Go ahead and call me an overachiever if you will, others have done it before. I just feel better when I know that I can enjoy myself without school hanging over my head, which is part of the reason Thanksgiving break is not my favorite. The problem with this plan is that to get the upcoming homework done, I have to do the previous homework really early. Balancing that with everything else that I have to do in a week, and we are talking major stress.

Perhaps it would be worth it if I could manage to stay on top of my game when I come back. Sadly, I never manage to stay ahead very long.
