Sanity


Blog / Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

I have not had as much time lately as I would have liked to work on the site, though I am slowly progessing through my tasks. Time is better spent at the moment catching up on my vast amounts of reading for class. Supposedly if I do well on things called exams I will, in the end, get a degree. Though right now this seems to be a needless luxury item, I am sure that my parents will tell me that it is good to have. So do not hate me if things are not done here, hate my parents…and yours too.

Needless to say my workload as of late has been near unbearable and I am glad that I have my comic buffer, so if I need to take a day working on a paper or reading a thousand pages, I can. But with this workload I find that I have trouble keeping myself sane. In the rare moments where I get a rest, I do not know what to do with myself. I panic.

I am glad to say that last night I may have found a solution. Swinging. Remember when you were a little kid and you would spend an entire recess on the swings? Or you would take an entire afternoon and swing up and down back and forth, maybe switching it up every now and then and place your belly on the swing and spin? Well, I have found this isn’t something that children can do, it is something that we all can do. It keeps me young and clears the mind.

Unfortunately for me, the swings are a good 30-45 minute walk from my current housing situation so the rare moments that I can swing are less. But they still keep me sane.

So be warned, it may not seem like things are improving here, but that most likely means they aren’t and you should send angry letters via snail mail to my professors and tell them to lessen the load. I, in the meantime, will try and get things done as I can. You, in the meantime, tell your friends to check out the site.
