Destressing

Yesterday, there wasn't too much going on. I spent most of the day working. However, a friend and I did take a study break to go to the "Destress Daze" in the college center which supposedly featured free smoothies, free snacks, finger painting,play-doh, and a bouncy castlle. While I didnt see any of the free food items, I did have a cathartic jump in the bouncy castle.

Later on that evening, disaster struck. I (fortunately) pulled out my syllabus for my international politics class, and noticed that the 10 page research paper that I thought was due monday...was actually this morning at 9am. Needless to say, I began to panic and then immediately started working. About 6.5 hours later I had 10 pages of research paper, 20 footenotes, and a separate bibliography with 10 distinct sources...I know my paper could have been better, but there wasn't really anything I can do. On a sidenote, what kind of professor makes a paper due at 9am when you have to physically hand it in? It was very cold and the poli sci office was locked, and...it was just bad. But...now I'm done! Now instead of having 23 pages to write by wednesday, I only have 13...hurrah!
