Pressure.

So the workload is getting heavier, and I'm desperately attempting to apply myself to the things I was sure I was good at. Somehow, when faced with a challenge I seem to curl up and hide away somewhere safe. Though by studying my favorite things I suppose I am inevitably doomed to narrow my escape routes. (Shouldn't that be a good thing? :S)

I love discussing analyzing and exploring narrative, I really do, it just seems like the incentive to do well is overshadowing the task completely. Hopefully a day of uninterrupted study tomorrow will be the kick I'm looking for to get my mind functioning properly.

In more cheerful news (not that anything previously written was particularly news) I've got a lot to look forward to this weekend, and also a lot to prepare for. I'm so excited :D
