Hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gal. Send me a kiss by wire, baby my hearts on fire! If you refuse me, honey you'll lose me, and you'll be left alone. Oh, baby, telephone and tell me I'm your own.
So We are coming to the final stretch of the first semester of my fourth year of my undergrad. It's fucking stressful let me tell you. It's even worse when you have that Godde damned song stuck in your head. I have become VERY unorganized, and I am working on this now. I purchased new school supplies because I find that I work so much better with brand new stationary. I think what i will do from now on is only buy one small stationary piece at a time when needed. For example at the begining of the year have my accordian folder, one pad of paper, and one back of pens. As I need things I can go pick them up. This encourages not only minimalism but also better organization and more motivation.
How does this encourage motivation you ask? Well have a huge bag FULL of school supplies is quite daunting. Being a writer I often suffer from writers block and fear of the blank page... so if there are less blank pages, then that's great!
Right now it is time to organize what to do and in what order to do them in order to feel less stressed. I am going to make a separate post about time organization and some helpful hints for getting you through the last stretch of a semester when you're writing all of your final papers and studying for your exams.
For now I am just quickly posting this to let you know that I'm still alive! Tara Siegfried is not dead yet nor have i not fallen off the face of the earth. I'm here, no different except for a wee bit of stress acne.
Good luck to everyone on their final papers!
