Rush, 4 tests, a life, anything else?

Where to begin? This next week is going to be the busiest week of my life...so far.  Rush has begun, I have four tests over the course of the week, and I'd also like to keep some sort of social life. And I just remembered that I have to write a paper. I have a feeling something is going to give.  Things are starting to hit me today.  I have so much studying to do, laundry to wash, groceries to get, blah, blah, blah.  Is there anything else I have to do? Oh yeah, breathe.  Maybe I can squeeze that in somewhere between all of my obligations.
Tomorrow is the Coke Parties for rush, so I'm excited about that, but they occupy 2 hours of my study time that I'm going to have to find somewhere else.  I'm kind of stressing out about all of this.  If only there were more hours in the day or I could live without sleep.  That would be nice-but that isn't the case.  So, I guess now is when time management kicks in.  Obviously I'm not doing well so far seeing as I'm not writing this blog till almost the last minute possible. 
I guess that I can now say I'm officially a college student, because in my mind the definition of a college student is somebody who is overwhelmed with school work, trying to keep a social life, and cramming!  I feel like I fit that definition pretty well.  I know that I'm complaining a little...okay, ALOT but It made me feel a little better. I don't know if it's because I got to get some stress out or that I can cross writing this blog of my list.  Whatever the reason, I'm happy to be even the smallest bit less stressed.

Lee, I am so sorry you are so stressed. But trust me you are not alone with how you feel and we are only on our 4th week of college. I am terrified to see what is going to happen when we get further into the semester.

it seems like a lot of people are dealing with these same problems, I know that this is something to be expected, but it was an honest observation. I will pray for your continued sanity, and that as you meet new challenges, you will face them with fervor, determination, and logic.

Wow next week is going to be pretty crazy! This transition into college is not all black and white. As soon as it's all over though we can look back and be like man i can't believe we actually pulled that off! Just remember, deep breaths and coffee... lots of it! I'll make sure to keep you in my prayers this week!
