Cracking under Pressure

Have you ever felt like the world was racing through your brain at a million miles a minute and the very bone structure of your skull was about to explode?

I feel like with my work I've been doing relatively well. I have 12 pages of the approximately 26 pages needed for all my papers that need to be completed. And I finished all my group work. But there's this undeniable pressure.

I keep thinking to myself, "I can't do this. i can't do this." and the nest minute I reassure myself, I take a breath and think "Stop that. You can do this. you'll be fine." and I get another page done.

I have my outlines, I have the materials pretty much read (except my history stuff), but I can't manage to sit down, buckle down, and just get it done.

I'm so close to the end and I'm not sure if I can follow through.

I'm being completely manic. I'm being completely crazy. I'm losing it big bit by big bit. My brain is spinning. My eyes aren't focusing. I can't spell a goddamn thing. I can't seem to focus on any one thing for over 2 minutes. what the hell is happening to me?

Finals crunch. that's what's happening.

Stay tuned for more craziness and the outcome of the quarter.
