I think I am officially on overload. The weird thing is, I am kinda enjoying it. It is a bit like going back in time, to high school, when I was always doing a million things at once, and kicking ass the whole time. If I can successfully navigate the next three weeks, I am going to come out the other side a cocky bastard. And since I have no option but to succeed, I apologize in advance for said cocky bastard behavior.
Things that I need to manage to get done in the next three weeks to officially be a rock star:
> Complete my Writing and Research Project a couple of days early, so I actually have time to proof read it and make sure all of my bluebook citations are correct this time. I am tired of losing points over stupid mistakes. DONE...DIDN'T FINISH IT EARLY, AS I HAD HOPED, BUT GOT IT DONE...AND FELT PRETTY GOOD ABOUT IT TOO.
> Kick total ass on my midterms. I only have two (Property and Contracts DONE...NOW I HAVE TO SEE IF THAT CURVE IS GOING TO BE A CURSE OR A SAVIOR), and they are currently my two best subjects. However, I suck at multiple choice questions, so it will still be pretty tough. However, success (B's) will assure me my place in the Paris Exchange program this summer, so failure is NOT an option...
> Manage to get through my speech at my grandfather's funeral this Friday, without completely falling apart in front of the estimated 400 people that will be there. DONE...I ROCKED IT
> Not catch one of the many flus that are floating around right now. This will probably prove to be the most challenging in some regard, because my defenses are going to be down with all of the other shit that I am dealing with these days. I guess I will probably have to seriously limit my alcohol intake over the next few weeks. Which will really suck when dealing with my family post-funeral this weekend.
> Do all of this, and make it look easy...that is the real trick. I mean if you can't look good while doing something, don't even bother...right?

keep on rockin', man. looks like you're doing splendidly.
belljar:
thank you. I tell you what, I was so unhappy for so long, and didn't even realize it. But the more I concentrate on all the positive things and the things that are possible, the more positive I feel. It's a pretty great feeling. And after putting that other person first for so long, I think I've earned it.
