broken record

I detect a theme in my life right now. I am freaking out at the work left to be done before exams, work is pressing, and life is stacking up. But all of this I chose. I need to find a way to be present in it, and appreciate the beauty even in this pressure cooker. Otherwise, why bother? And meantime, I also need to find a few more hours a day. Since I'm not giving up sleep, eating, work, running or school, I will no doubt be absent from here for much of November. Hopefully I will have something to say at last.
