Nor is it easy to have three papers due in the same week (let alone conducive to physical and mental health). But here we are. (I am?) One (plus a presentation for the same class) is already done, so that leaves just two for tomorrow. The first one is actually in really good shape. The second? Well, I'd rather not talk about it.
So needless to say it hasn't been a great week. It's had its good moments and I could definitely be in a lot worse shape, paper-wise, I guess it's not all bad. Ish. Apart from papers, there's been classes and internship stuff as usual.
The paper stress I'm under isn't helped by the fact that I've been hit by home-sickness this week. Technically, Gettysburg-home-sickness. (Not that I don't miss my California home, I'm just used to not being there by now.) There have been moments of G-h-s the whole time I've been there, but nothing too bad. And this isn't a crippling sickness. It's just been rough knowing that this upcoming weekend is alumni weekend/theatre reunion as well as the opening weekend for the fall show. Especially seeing everyone's plans to see each other while I'm stuck here on the other side of the ocean. The stress of the week hasn't helped this G-h-s either. But I know I'll get through and it will be ok.
The one glorious thing on the immediate horizon, though, is that I'm going to Paris this weekend and get to see my dear friend/fatty/roomie-last-year Angela!! I cannot wait and the timing worked out perfectly that we'll get to see each other while everyone else will be seeing each other at the Gettysburg reunion. The only downside, though, is that planning and all that stuff has been one more thing hanging over my head this week to stress me out. But I know by the time I get on that train tomorow it'll all be worth it. I just need to make it through these next couple of hours....
