Has there ever been a point in your life when everything seems like it's melting together into one big blob of....meltedstuffness? (Yes, I made my own word! Big deal! That's what highly paid tech-people do when they create something new.....right?) Like, I really don't even know what day it is anymore...And I can't remember what I'm doing after school that day and ugh......

Go get some extra strength laxative. Drink the whole bottle! You shouldn't be "meltedstuffness" anymore.

Yeah, be cool. Enjoy life...eat out more often. You know, that sort of stuff... http://forums.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum1/noncgi/cwmsmilies/cwm17.gif

whoever told you Efedrin is good for you is NOT your friend. j/k
Sounds like you need to relax, get a good three days sleep and things will fall back in perspective. If they don't... just go back to sleep.
Really though, just try to keep things in perspective, re-prioritize if things get out of hand and seriously, very seriously (I've seen too many friends burn out because of overwork and not taking care of themselves) stay healthy.
Good luck. http://forums.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum1/noncgi/smile.gif

Oh jeez, eat more...and put back on the 12 pounds I gained...>.< (no offense, I know it was made in good taste)
But I usually do all my posting at the Career Center...I'm like, 3 chapters ahead of everyone else in the book, so I just relaxa for a while...most of the times, I open up Winamp, load up some Jazz/Swing/Rock Ensemble MP3s, get out a book, and read (Jazz/Swing/Rock Ensembles and reading are my two favorite things that I can do at once. But my all time favorite is my sax and bass guitar :-D). And then of course, I get the familiar, "SAL! CLEAN OUT THE KITTY LITTER!"
or
"SAL! WHY ISN'T MY COMPUTER WORKING!?"

yea, too bad it don't last all that long. I'm capt burnout. I work 30+ hours a week, go to college full time and still somehow find time to do this kinda stuff.
Just do things for yourself, no one else. If someone's with you, hey, thats great, but if not, do it just cause you can. As queer as this sounds, step outside what you'd usually do. ...something like sky diving would suit it quite nice! http://forums.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum1/noncgi/biggrin.gif

Sorry to inform you Kid, but mostly you are displaying signs of growing up.
When you get to 18 you will look back and think how unstressed and easy life was a few years back.
Just think of it as training and get done those things that must be done then think about the priorities for the rest.
But most of all, approach everything with good humour and it will be less likely to bite you in the butt - unless of course you are decorating my daughter's room, but hey, we won't go there!
Chin up kid, it passes, one way or another you will get through it.
