That last post was a piece of shit. Inspired by lack of sleep and a tremendous overdose of caffeine. Hands stopped shaking, for the most part, and I can think clearly.

There is one thing that everyone should do in life: if you can't control it, then don't worry about it. I've been worrying about things I can't control. For instance: the Geology exam tomorrow, the Geology 12 hour field trip next week, the Dynamics notebook check, how I did on my Dynamics exam the other day, my situation with women, or rather, one young woman in particular, not to mention I haven't been running. I can't control any of those things, and I'm starting to understand that I can't let them bother me. That does not mean I take them into account, I just don't think about them and worry about them.

Here are a few things I can control: how much I study for Geology, eating a nutritional diet, getting a full 8 hours sleep tonight, try and make time to go out for a run today (doubtful, but I can try). Getting my statistics homework finished. Having a good time with my roommates and relax. These things I CAN change, and CAN affect. And therefore I can worry about them.

I had this massive massive massive panic attack last night. Weird.

AND WHEN WILL HE FUCKING LEARN TO DRINK WITHOUT SLURPING ON EVERY FUCKING SIP?!?

Now to do that statistics homework, and do the Dynamics work for today. Then I'll be off and running with Geology. I'll check back in later.

Ahhh...the wonders of caffeine and super-duper chocolate cake...mmm...
