Well, I have just finished finals and midterms this past week so why don't I just explain how I completely relieved my stress.
First thing, I always go to the gym when I am under stress because it makes me feel productive as well as take my mind off of the task causing the stress.
Second, I typically reward myself for a day by not doing any school work and instead try to do a new spontaneous event instead. I'll explain.
Third, this is the spontaneous event typically spur of the moment of an event that my lovely friends drag me into. This week, I was craving Cane's chicken and the secret sauce so badly. Instead of buying the Caniac, I decided I wanted to learn how to actually make that special Canes sauce. So, with the help of one of my friends that actually knows how to cook, we went grocery shopping and made the identical magical sauce that we all love so much. This compiled list is the basic steps or situations I put myself into whenever I feel the most stressed. Now at times where I have a midterm coming up, BLF project on my mind, a compact weekend with little time to study, and a presentation to prepare for by next Friday to my Exec board at Fisher, the best way for me to deal with this is to make a daily, not weekly list of what I need to accomplish. The satisfaction of crossing off something on my list is so gratifying.
Try not to stress the small things, because they will get to you if you let them!
