feels the weight of truth

People are weird. Also, tiring.

When did I forget this?

See, this is the first year the college has completely semesterised. Which means this is the first year ever we have had the joyful experience of twelve-week terms (without a midterm break, even). And also the first year ever where we have had less than three weeks between the end of classes and the beginning of the exam period.

I was wondering why I felt edgy and unable to concentrate every time I went into the library. And exhausted. And then I took today off (slept in til after noon by accident, had my grandmother ring the doorbell wanting to take me out to lunch/dinner before I was out of the shower and spent a surprisingly relaxing afternoon in her company even before we met a gorgeous kitten) and realised:

Oh. Everyone else is stressed too. And dealing with that isn't exactly helping my own slightly hysterical introvert to keep things on an even keel.

I think I'm staying home to study tomorrow.
