notes on stress

Stress in general ---
well... As the end of the semester is in sight I find my stress levels rising... It seems as though the procrastination that has taken place in the past three months has had little pay off.... Now I'm left with a ton of work to compete and all I really want to do is hang out outside. I usually deal with such stress by making tea... I watch the water transform from cold stagnant water to excited bubbling tea... I think... It may be getting a little hot right now... But soon I will have tea...

Stress in Nolte---
I find myself being fairly productive in this space... I'm sitting over by the present moment unstallation... Next to the unconvincing fake plant... I'm not inside the space, but being by it helps me to focus... Maybe it is bexaisei know that there is a place near by where I can relax... I feel that the rest of the space in nolte is open for students to relax while being productive.. I find the fake plant a little distracting...

Venturing outside---
being outside is giving me slot more distractions--- it reminds me of how every summer I try to bring a book the beach but never read it.... Last summer it was the awakening .... I thought it was an appropriate beach book... Being outside does make me worry a lot less about the things that I need to do... I think that nature reminds me that things are more complex than the deadlines
that are creeping up... Papers will get written and read and life will go on...

I just realized that I wrote all of this in the entry body... Since I'm in my phone it will have to stay there since i cant copy and
paste
