The low point of me week has been all of the stress from homework, studying, and my boyfriend. I have so much homework all the time, from English papers to math problems, to the Pace assignments, and so much more! I've also had about four tests in the past week which have called for seemingly endless studying. I feel like I can never get a break and I never get any sleep anymore. Sleep deprivation and stress do not go well together at all. My stress from school unfortunately causes me to take out my frustrations on my boyfriend sometimes. I get angry with him more quickly and we've fought quite a bit this week over the smallest things. It's tough to get past it since we're in a long distance relationship as well. It's been very difficult to make time to talk to him and to study, but luckily he's been understanding of that and we're able to keep our relationship alive somehow.
The high point of my week was going to the rec for the very first time ever yesterday. I ran two miles on the treadmill and I thought I would die because I hate working out. It turned out to be a huge stress reliever, though and I feel so much better now. It was kind of like my sweat represented all my stress and worries melting away, as weird as that sounds. I woke up today with a new found energy that I didn't have earlier in the week and I'm pretty sure I'll be going to the rec way more often. I get to stay in shape and relieve stress all at once, yay!
