Perambulations on stress

I've only been out of bed for twenty minutes and already this is not shaping up to be a good day.  I was going to see Harry Potter with Emily today, but due to problems in obtaining a ride and a realization that I had a lot more homework than I thought I did, HP sadly had to be expelled in favor of less fun pursuits for the day.

And now my nervous system is a bit overtaxed.  Because I have math homework, and essays to read for English, and thirty pages to read for Modern Culture & the Arts.  And Career Decision-Making is the worst still, because I have to finish a paper for that class but I don't have enough material to fulfill the page requirement yet; I have to interview a publisher author/editor about their career and write a paper on that, but the person I thought I could interview fell through and now I don't know who I'm going to interview; and only one of my mates for the group project has followed through so far, so now I have to call up two guys I barely know and nag them (in a friendly manner) about sending their parts of the paper to me so I can put them together. 

Yes, you're probably all tired of hearing me list off all the things I have to do that're stressing me out, but that's pretty much taking up the bulk of my active prosencephalon right now. I'm kind of just venting to get this all out somewhere. I freaking don't know how I'm going to manage this (mostly the interview, since that's the one thing I absolutely cannot afford to not get done, except the group project, but I can still turn in my part even if no one else does, so I'll get at least partial credit.  But if I don't turn in my interview questions and the paper I have to write on it, I fail the whole class.  No joke.)

And I'm going to New Day today for the "community worship night" hosted by WorshipArts.  Under normal circumstances I would be at least fairly excited, but since this is cutting four hours out of my loaded day, I am not.   Help!

  2. Could you interview Aaron Mueller? He writes for a paper in Niles, I think.

    I just realized today that I have paper due on Tuesday which I haven't started or even thought about until today. There goes my weekend.
