Have you ever gotten so wrapped up in your studies, all of the things that need to be done for school, and a to-do list a mile long, that you completely forget you also have a “real life”? I mean like a “hey, you should probably do the dishes that have piled up for a week” real life.  Like, “your garbage needed to be taken out 3 days ago and you haven’t done laundry in weeks” real life.  Today I, of course, did some studying, but I cleaned my house. And that’s kind of a big deal. Tonight I will be sipping on some wine, watching some netflix, and having some peace of mind knowing I can wake up tomorrow and study all day without constantly being distracted by how messy my house is.

Another day, another brain cell lost to the world of psychology. On the schedule for today - retake a test that I failed a while ago - read chapter 14 of intro to counseling - read chapter 6 of cognitive psych - read chapter 10 of abnormal psych - make a plan for essays/exams - edit a video I filmed a video yesterday of a day in the life of an online student. I’m not sure if I will upload it to youtube yet, but if I do, I’ll share the link here for sure. Whats on your schedule today?

I just really love time lapses, okay?

Didn't do a whole lot today but did manage to finish a chapter in intro to personalities and start making some flash cards for intro to sociology. Tomorrow will be spent studying all day long. I already feel like I need a coffee..

Hope all of you are having a great Thursday 💛

Today is a rough one. No- everyday lately has been a rough one. I’m currently wrapping up my summer semester and everything has kind of fallen apart.  I wanted to have all of my readings, assignments, and tests out of the way by the end of July so I could have August to study for exams and write term papers. But of course, nothing works out how we plan, does it? It is now August 20th and I am JUST STARTING my papers... I’m way behind and my first exam is in one week. I only have 11 days to finish everything and I am freaking out.  On top of that, my funding hasn’t been processed because I am on academic probation through my loan institution, so they need to see that I’ve passed my classes before approving my loans... and I’m starting my next semester September 1st. I didn’t want to have a break between semesters this time because I am so far behind where I want to be, but now I might lose my place at my school all together because my funding won’t be approved in time.  So, I have all of that on my plate and today I need to do the following: - Finish writing an essay on addiction to money as a pathology - Start my next essay on *sigh* the avengers... yep - Start planning my HUGE term paper for forensic psych - clean my house because it is wrote off - write a blog post - go to work for midnight to work an overnight.  I could just explode I am so full of stress. I need a glass of wine, a bubble bath, and a good book. But I can’t relax until everything is done. BRB crying.
