Missing School Sucks

Missing school sucks

               I hate missing school. All the information and all the assignments that are due or assigned just add to an unnecessary stress level. When I miss school I usually miss out information that are crucial for the next class. When missing school your mind is elsewhere. Today I missed school to go to a memorial of a cousins that passed this last month and my mind was not on school today. When I got home I began thinking of all the things I missed and that I must do to catch back up. All the thing I must get done by next class, what assignments I need to turn in, and the information I need. So many thoughts and such add an unwanted amount of stress that I do not need. I have so much to do this point in the semester and so much in my mind, that I don’t need extra things to do. Heck, I was running around when I got home like a chicken with its head cut off. I nearly forgot about this blog too. But luckily, I remembered to do it. I have a midterm tomorrow too that I must study for. I mean I have it under control now, but everything is coming together at the end of the semester and if things are missed, my grades will suffer. This time of year, is stressful but I can handle it. Just a few nights of late studying and homework? Just hand me a Rockstar and watch me do my thing.

Givem a chance

               I think people should be judged on their action rather than views. I also believe that people should be given a chance to prove themselves. As we know, the elections came to a close last week with Donald Trump emerging as the victor. However, people have since been rioting and protesting this outcome. Directly attacking his persona with hate. Someone I went to high school with goes to Sonoma State University. On her snapchat she posted herself in a very large group of people all walking the streets chanting “not my president”. If you want to get technical, he isn’t even the president yet. Also, people are judging him on his beliefs and what he believes should be done to improve this country. His goal, as all other presidents, is to improve this country. No one goes into the presidency to deliberately do harm to the country. Also, he needs congress approval to do anything anyways so it’s not like he can do whatever he wants to whoever he wants. He isn’t even president yet and people are attacking him. At least give him a chance to fail. Let him prove his worth. Let him show the nation that he can do good (or bad). I did not vote for I felt both candidates had good and bad to both parties. I’m just so annoyed with everyone complaining and attacking the winning candidate and his means in improving the country. All I’m saying is give him a chance to fail. Give him a chance to prove himself.

Stress

Stressful Times

               I don’t know about anyone else but, for me, this is the most stressful time of the year. With project and essay due dates coming up, finals right around the corner, Christmas, and now the presidential elections. The stress is starting to build up and I’m trying to find ways to cope. One of the most effective ways is laughter. I like to laugh and make people laugh, so I’ll go over to a friend’s house or sometime play some Smash Bros in between classes with some friends. It’s a good stress reliever to be surrounded by friends and have a good time. I also relieve stress by playing some Xbox. However, I only play on the weekends so that I can focus on school. Playing games and chatting with friends online makes me laugh and makes me forget about the world for a while. Another way to relieve stress is exercise. I run once in a blue moon and that helps me get my mind off things. And even though I have not been out golfing in a while, I golf with friends or with my brother and it helps. Unless I play like shit, then I just get furious. But it usually helps with forgetting the worries at home and school.  Stress like most anything else in the universe does not last forever and will go away with time. Right now, I have to take one thing at a time and it will all be over soon.
