It is already March.
I said not to panic. It is going to be okay.
It is probably midterms or even Spring Break.
Time to give yourself some time to breathe. Maybe take a walk. Or out with friends. The work will still be waiting for you when you get back.
Me? What do I do to relax between homework assignments?
After I started feeling better after a truly awful week, I was very excited to actually get to go on the movie date with my sister. We had lunch out before the movie.
We saw Lisa Frankenstein and it was hilarious. Kind of the way Shaun of the Dead is. Macabre and dark and funny. Definitely a must-see.
And when the younger generations get their hands on it, as it was a blink and you miss it in the movie theaters, this has cult classic written ALL over it.
Afterward, I noticed that my phone had done a video for me about my two cats and I was showing her how to access one on her phone. Suddenly, in the middle of the pictures of her cats who died in 2019 and 2020, there was her picture. SUDDENLY.
I’ve not laughed like that in a long time, sputtering and wheezing, and coughing the entire time with tears. I needed that as much as the horror comedy we just watched.
Find time for the laughter. Your brain will be thankful.
Now that my brain is refreshed, I have a Measurement homework due tomorrow and my newly declared get homework in early to do. It was a good thing that I had this declaration as I had turned in my qualitative homework nearly 6 days early and then spent the next week recovering.
