Now that I have all (or most) of my worksheets in, I feel a little bit more relaxed than last week. Unfortunately, I still feel a bit suffocated from all of the finals that are going on. This stress happens every semester during finals, but especially this year because the Dec. 31/Jan. 1 college application deadline is approaching pretty quickly. I'm hoping that I can prepare well for my comp sci final enough so that I spend a sufficient amount of time on it, but not an overwhelming amount of time on it. I think time management should be key here, but we'll see how the rest of the month pans out. The whole senior/college experience thing is also really harsh mentally, because there's always a fear of messing up something. Oftentimes I keep having to mentally motivate myself to keep going and to keep getting things done, and it's becoming extremely stressful. When Tuesday/new material comes, I want to be in a good enough shape so that I can receive this new information/prepare for finals/not have my brain explode with stress. Finals/college apps/senior year is almost like a marathon. Whoever keeps going in the end will win the race, so I have to just keep going and keep getting things done. Not to be too descriptive or anything.
Also Mr. Stephens, I might ask you sometime this week or next to send your teacher recommendation letter to another college (potentially University of Rochester)? This might depend on what I decide within the next week, but if I decide to apply, I'll give you the envelope/stamp and everything (just a heads-up). Thanks-
