I think I&#8217;ve reached a point where I&#8217;m so stressed that I don&#8217;t even think I&#8217;m stressed. I know that sounds stupid, but I think it&#8217;s like I&#8217;m building an immunity to stress or something. If I&#8217;m being honest, I think it&#8217;s because of my extracurricular activities combined with my classes. I&#8217;m worried about ensemble because I don&#8217;t really have time to practice my trombone, so I just continue to get worse at it. Any time I do have, I dedicate it to getting Malone&#8217;s packets done because if I don&#8217;t, they&#8217;ll never be completed. Last week, I was so dead to the world because of deadlines for literary and from working on the history packets, that I lost all motivation I had to work on my short fiction assignment. But as a little spark of positivity, the first draft will be so bad that the second draft will look like a masterpiece. I have the basic plot set up for it, but I just don&#8217;t have the time to really dig into it like I want to. If I ever find downtime, I&#8217;ll try to work on it then and continue to improve it. I know it would be a good story (and I&#8217;m not tooting my own horn here), but it would only be good if I can manage to work on it. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: courier new,courier,monospace;\">Also, to deal with this stress, I&#8217;m currently listening to &#8220;Colourblind&#8221; by Hands Like Houses on repeat. It&#8217;s a great song that just makes me so flipping happy. Maybe it&#8217;ll motivate me to get stuff done. I recommend that everyone listen to the song.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been in the weirdest state lately.
