TO DO: Color Coded

I've been feeling very stressed lately. I normally LOVE finals. But when you live 2 hours away from campus and take online classes, it SUCKS. I don't feel any kind of release from the aspect of less and less sessions to go to everyday. I am only feeling the pressure of more and more assignments due every day.
So I decided to make this. Usually when I'm at school I put up post-its by my desk of all the things I have to do. Then I crumble the piece of paper and throw it away once it is turned in. It is very satisfying. So above is the huge list that I made this morning... 22 things to complete before Christmas. If you like math, that's more than one a day. You might think that's not a big deal but some of those assignments are 10 page papers, and those names that are listed there are people I either need to buy for (green) or make something for (red). This is going to take a while!

I have had a really successful day though. I know it may not seem like it, because this is my third blog post of the day and I've updated my facebook profile picture twice as well as make my huge to do list and color coded it. But look at what I got to cross off!
Two homework assignments and two MASSIVE papers are now OFF my chest. Not so surprisingly though, it does not feel any lighter. Anyway the four pieces of paper are resting in my trash can and that would make me smile if I wasn't so tired.

4 down, 18 to go...hey that's one a day until Christmas.

good night.

I love fashion merchandising.
