In the Swiss Alps...

I feel like I'm surrounded by very tall&towering icey snowcapped mountains all around all hissing at me to be conquered....Stress! My instinct is to dig an icecave and roll up and go to sleep until someone finds me and drags me out...and finds a whole heap of empty chocolate bar wrappers left behind...LOL

I can't wait to look back to see the view after I've climbed all those mountains...going to take TIME though!

Stress Paralysis

If it wasn't a medical condition already well here, I coin the term. This has been happening a lot to me the last few weeks but it seems to have reached crisis point. Basically I am paralysed into non action- all I have been doing, is coming to my blog to try and vent, lying in bed(escape) or eating chocolate. I completely drew a blank the other day in a test and my mind got paralysed...blank paper.

The worst part of all of this stress paralysis is that...the longer I dwell in non-action, the more dire and more reason to stress my situation gets! I really think I am just SO TIRED besides the stress I really feel incapable of doing - I think it is really state of being burnt out, like when my successful but healthy career driven journo friend worked really hard and intensely for days on end and then one day found she just could not move out of bed...and was cute enough to go to the doctor about it.

But people around me are all in the same boat, so I will try and derive inspiration by the examples they set. In this case, the mind has to rise above the body. In 2 hours I want THIS DONE. okay get to it...

It was a Team Effort!

Yay, finally something nice to report for once...been such a dodgy student due to all external challenges and difficulties lately.

Have a presentation tomorrow...when classmates heard this arvo had not started and freaked out on my behalf, I got stressed.

But I also answered that I have complete and utter faith in my partner and I knew that we'd get it done cos she is a productivity and efficiency terminator- as opposed to me who is like a slug to get anything done whether I like it or not...if I hate it it's cos I hate it, if I like it it's cos I get so stuck into it I go into so much depth the ocean would swallow you 100x over.

So anyway just shy of 1am, our combined effort and DONE (we know each other well and work well together very complementary)... A PRETTY GOOD JOB too- I don't think anybody can tell it was a night before job! Yay, even enough time for some shut eye...fingers crossed X. Nights, Peeps.

Ill-Equipped.

I think I am so used to being so sheltered and protected my whole life, now, I have absolutely no idea how to deal with confrontational situations myself....arghhh!

On a cheerier note, unwind with this fantastic band I just discovered who have a very happy go lucky relaxing style of music...
