might get loud. on FRIDAY

 current state of the union is mixed. am i doing more things than I was before? yeah, I think so. but I'm also more stressed, and on edge. I feel like I don't know how to relax anymore. Before, I was relaxed all the time to the point of not getting things done that I should, but now I feel stressed and on the one hand, it means I care about doing stuff and making things happen. On the other hand, it means I'm stressed and not relaxed and I'm not really having fun anymore.

Like I was ignoring all the stuff I had to do before, and now I'm focused on it, which is good because it needs to be done, but bad because it's stressing me out and I don't know how to deal with that. What do you do when you're stressed out about things??? 

Anyway... 

- Endowment and Mission stuff are both in progress now, which is good. I've got several interviews lined up in the next two weeks. I'm working on getting to the Health Center for a physical. I need to find a dentist somewhere... but yeah all that's moving along quite nicely.

 - Last few days since I last washed my hair, it dried weird. Like there was a tuft on one side of my face that curled up in this fluffy, floofy poof and every other part of my hair was just lying flat. It's pretty much stayed like that for the last three days, which meant that I was going places with a floofy puff of hair on one side of my face that was bouncing every time I walked. Pretty whimsical!

- went to Choirfest Saturday night, that was great! it was a performance with all the university's choirs and they each did a few songs. The audience even got to sing a hymn in the middle of it, while the different choirs changed out (there were a LOT of people in some of them). I wasn't sure I'd like it, but I ended up having a lot of fun, the music was good and some of them even incorperated parts of the room besides the middle, like there was one time when they started singing from the sides of the room, and then kept singing as they funneled up to the stage. Very funky.

- it's been really warm out, for winter. Like 50s and sunny, some days. I've been trying to get outside more to take advantage!
