I should expect this, as we the students no longer have to suffer under the pressures of a lot of assignments and tests that need to be done by the end of the week (as far as I know, I don\u2019t exactly have any finals tomorrow&#8230; guess I\u2019ll just have to wait and see). And I also imagine that quite a few of us are getting ready to go home for spring break and meet up with our other friends and family. As I have said numerous times before, breaks are a good thing; they allow us opportunities to unwind and relax from the stresses of Wabash, especially the stresses of finals and midterms.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I will admit, I have been a bit stressed lately. I did not get into the play I talked about in my last blog post, and the general stress of tests and assignments has worn me down a bit. I\u2019m surviving primarily on tea, snack food, <em>Avatar: The Last Airbender<\/em> fanfiction and sheer willpower right now. I would like nothing better than to get some sleep, but since I have the upper level of a bunk bed that\u2019s not really the best option right now. I need some time to unwind and relax, and going home for a week will do just that, and then I can come back to Wabash refreshed and ready to finish off the school year.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I think maybe a nice slice of pizza and some tea would be really good right now&#8230; I can get the tea, but I\u2019ll have to wait until Saturday or possibly Monday before I can get pizza&#8230; maybe, I might be overthinking things again, as I am wont to do.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Anyway, breaks are still awesome, although I am feeling a bit burned out. I\u2019ll stay in touch with you guys over break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve begun to notice that there tends to be a slump during the last few days of finals or midterms.
