The Need for Routine

I've been on Spring Break this week. Alas, all good things must come to an end and I am now thinking about all that needs to be done for next week. I had the hardest time falling asleep last night because I was working myself into a ball of stress.

I have realized that I really need routine to keep me going and to keep me from becoming a total slacker who later turns into a stress-er. Instead of thinking about the homework I could get done and the stress that would be removed from my life, I thought about removing red walls from my living room. Last thursday I made this crazy rash decision and thought it would be a good idea to paint the whole apartment.

I had a fantasy that while I was waiting on coats of paint to dry I would do homework. I would also turn into superwoman, apparently. I have learned that I can't do it all. I have learned that I should probably give more than 48 hours thought to the decision to paint the apartment, no matter how small said apartment is. I should probably just stick to my routine of doing homework until the semester is over. That would probably be helpful.
