"Release"

When this week started, I was uber busy. I had so very little time to do everything I needed, and I the stress was getting to me. I put my head down though, took some deep breaths and busted head first through it all, and came out alive on the other side. 

I was very happy with myself.

In fact, a little too happy. 

I guess due to my war-torn weekend, I decided to be gracious to myself and turn my "WORK" button to off despite the fact that I still had three days worth of classes to attend, and a couple of assignments to hand in. I don't wanna say what the result of the week was, but in retrospect it was definitely quite embarrassing.

Despite my belligerence towards my studies, I still had a 30% midterm to take this evening, and luckily, I was able to turn the tables on my lazy self, as I actually made it to the class and wrote the damn thing. Was it a good midterm?? Naw. But I made an attempt to offset it in the best way that I could: I got dressed up. I realize that it might be a girly little thing that I did, but in order to offset the awful that I was feeling prior to the midterm, I put on a nice shirt, my best pair of jeans, a blazer, and cowboy boots, and made sure that my confidence, as far as my physical appearance was concerned, was at a quality high. And even if I didn't do well on the test, I was complimented for the way I looked, and I walked out of there feeling pretty okay with myself. 

I really can't let this week repeat itself though. I gotta stop shooting myself in the foot. I'm running out of feet for Pete's sake!!
