Ugh. It's that time again...finals. Every end of quarter it's the same thing: workload and study time increase; and stress levels are at their peak. I have OCD--actually diagnosed, not simply self-assessed. I always create Excel spreadsheets to help me figure out hypothetical scenarios for final grades. It helps ease my anxiety level to know exactly how poorly I could perform and still receive the desired grade. My friends tell me that I'm crazy for being so obsessed with routinely calculating my grades. Um, yeah, that's what OCD is. I look forward to a week and a half from now when the term is over, and I have a month-long break from school. Even on breaks, I have a difficult time relaxing. I make lists. I get things accomplished that I otherwise do not have time to do. Even a break is not really a break (See the picture of me on vacation reading a book about improving memory). Nonetheless, I look forward to having less stress in my life after December 14th. I may as well enjoy it; next term I will be taking 18 credits. Ugh, again...
