Exams, homework, and the looming date of October 19th are the reason I only get 4 hours of sleep each night this week. The switch that turns off my mind has be JB welded in the on position. Every time I start to relax I remember that one piece of homework that I did not complete, or that math test that I did bad on, and that wind down that I need from the day is delayed until 1 or 2 A.M. when I am satisfied that I am no longer a failure at life. Stress is a normal part of my life but school tends to nudge it to a large consuming part. If you like myself also struggle with stress and it is causing you to loose a large amount of time, sleep, or hair over it I have good news. Time management can help, and it has helped me I have gotten a small planner and I mark out times to do different assignments that I know that I struggle with. This has helped me to feel calmer about my assignments and to start to wind down from the day as soon as 11 o'clock. Stress is normal, and natural, in the right amount it is even a good thing for you, but don't let it take over your life. Sleep long and prosper my friends.
