I Think My Head's About To Explode! (Matt Blogs)



It seems like everyday I wake up at the same time
Go to work at the same time,
& go to school at the same time
My life is on loop & it gets old pretty quickly

It's not like repatition is a bad thing,
and I'm sure in some cases it's beneficial to getting things to run smoothly
but my repetition lasts about 16 hours a day.
& I'm getting kind of tired of it, to be honest.
I'm constantly on the move & I barely have time to stop and think.
Or take care of things. Or have a hobby!

& on those rare occasions when my world stops spinning long enough for me to relax and think about things, my mind is usually filled with stressful thoughts:
How am I going to make my life work?
What do I need to do to achieve my goals?
Basically, what it all boils down to is time. There isn't enough of it.

One of the most stressful thoughts I've got right now is moving to Dallas.
It is going to be a big step into uncharted territory that I am excited, but scared to take. What will I do about work? Will I make enough money to live the way I want to? How quickly will I find an apartment? Am I even ready to go out on my own?

Even though all those crazy thoughts are flying through my head all the time, I know that I will be graduating in four months, and my life will be much less stressful then. I also know that I have family, and friends to pull me through this super stressful time in my life. And I know that this won't last forever, but right now I'm having a hard time seeing the light at the end of this tunnel. This type of thinking usually hits me about once every month, and I go into freak out mode, and since starting this blog, I've gotten the opportunity to vomit my freak out here, to whoever wants to read it. Maybe now that I've written it all down, I can move on a bit from it. I don't know, I guess we'll have to see.

Has anyone else had a situation like this? How do you get through your stressful times?

  1. I seriously love this movie!

    ...and I think monotony is seriously so depressing. I'm still working on how to get through it, so I actually have no advice for you whatsoever. Sorry. :[
