Fuzzy
Hm. Still excessively busy. Same usual and unusual things being catalogued in my mind to write about but at the moment I really, seriously don't have time. Next week in four days I have four exams, two presentations and two "papers" (one experimental research, the other a fiction narrative) in the range of 8-15 pages due that are still in the "rough" stages of brainstorming. Go me.

Of course, being the perfectionist I am, everything will be done on time and done well at the loss of sleep and leisure time for myself of course.

On top of it all, I somehow have to make complete all travel preparations for the trip starting next week and START reservations for March when Alex comes (since I can't very well do that while Justin's here).

I wish I were more exited for my travel. It's probably the "biggest" thing I've ever done with my life (especially because I set it all up) and I can't even get worked up about it. I'm too busy right now to see beyond tomorrow... and when Justin gets here I'll only just (literally, a few hours before) have finished with everything the best I can.

It makes me feel sort of itchy and fidgety inside, like I'm not ready for it to start four hours after my last class. I need some time to back off and let myself realize that I'm going to HAVE FUN IN JAPAN. I'm worried that because I won't have any time to wind down, plunging straight into sightseeing mode is just going to ruin the experience for me.

Maybe I should have give myself more time between the last class and Justin's arrival date? Oh well, too late now.

I'll manage. I'll have as much fun as I can. I'll relax as much as I can. It will be great.

Back to the grind...
