After 12 hours of class in 24 hours, I decided I needed to unwind a bit and turn my brain off. A friend was in the city for her sister's body building competition (!?) and begged me to go out with them...so I did. Luckily for my weary mind and body, they only wanted to grab a drink and some food. Sadly, even that was enough to wipe me out.
Today was a struggle; I was wiped out and running on limited sleep. I rose early, but had to crawl back to nap for most of the morning. I've had a final assignment on the back burner for a while, and today was my deadline - luckily it was short, so I managed to summon the strength to pump out five pages of barely-coherent ramblings and little else. That's what Sundays are for though, right?
I had the best of intentions to begin my writing project today, but a lack of motivation and Netflix hindered my progress. My impending thesis had been looming in my mind lately, preventing my more creative side from surfacing (at least on paper; I played my guitar today in a struggle to avoid my real work). This whole taking-a-vacation-from-my-mind thing is proving to be easier said than done...
So I intend to start the week off fresh tomorrow. I'm able to work from home tomorrow, so I plan to get my work space in order so I can find some clarity - clean and organized spaces equate to a clear and focused mind for me. I'm hoping for some warm weather this week - nothing inspires me more than a beautiful sunny day when I can sit outside and soak it in. Cross your fingers; I think we could all use another sunny day...
