Stress

This is an awesome cover of Jack Johnson's "While We Wait" which is today's song of the day!

So tonight I started to get a bit stressed about life. Coming up before the end of the week is New Years....it's already almost 2010!! Then my dad's birthday is right after that. Issue number one, I have no plans for New Year's Eve. Said boy I blogged about yesterday is hunting with family for the rest of the week. I did call him though! I feel empowered. Issue number two, I am a bit stretched for cash, and haven't gotten my dad a birthday present yet. He and I don't exactly get along all the time, but I know if I don't get him something my mom, whom I'm really close to, will gripe and complain.
While all this is going on in my mind, I can't help but wish I was back in school already. I really do love it. I am ready for this next semester to be underway and to get moving on into the next part of my life. You see, I am trying to get a job over the summer that would allow me to travel for two months over the summer, and would be an amazing opportunity. If I get it, I will only have 5 more months of living here! But 5 months is not a very long time at all! Then I have started stressing about how I am going to get everything organized in 5 months. I have to finalize transferring to one of two schools that I have yet to decide between, keep working on a job I have yet to find, audition, find a place to live in the fall, if needed buy furniture for said living arrangement, and then get ready to live out of a suitcase for two months, only to come home for two weeks at most then move out!!!
If anyone is out there, how do you deal with stress? How do you make major decisions?

coming soon, Resolutions 2010...
