Too much on my plate; weeding out non-priorities for now
19 years ago
I just wanted to let y'all know that I'm going to be wrenching myself away from this system of tubes we call the Interweb for a while. Three major factors are affecting this:
1. With exams coming up and many, many projects that need worked on (not the least of which being a website for our school paper that really needs to get finished up), it's just as well that I not have another million things to distract me right now. My will power is terrible, and if I don't make a solid promise that I'm not going to be online, trust me, I'm going to be online whether I'm supposed to be or not.
2. I've discovered recently that the amount of stress I'm putting on myself as of late, coupled with the horrid lack of sleep I've been getting, is taking a real toll on my health. I was sick for most of last week (setting me back even further) and still feel the aftereffects in the form of a hoarse voice that doesn't seem to want to pack up and go home anytime soon. So it's probably best for all parties involved if I cut back and settle into a less stressful routine.
3. You knew I was going to mention this sooner or later: there's an awful lot of drama going on right now, both on and off the site, and really I can do much, MUCH better things with my time than listen to people shout back and forth about stuff they all care way more about than they probably should. Same reason I generally don't watch political debates. I figure it'll blow over soon enough, and then I can return to whatever's left standing.
So to all of you who made me feel very welcome in my first (and hopefully not my last!) few months here, a big warm thank you. *hugs everyone* Take care! See you after Thanksgiving, if this site hasn't been hacked to death by then. ;)
