Jeffrey Akira Fudenna gave me some very cool advice today.

i was feeling a little stressed cuz i'm heeeecka busy this week, and freaking calculus is like raping me. and jeff being the sensitive soul he is, called me a dumbass and said, "stress is such a waste of time." and what he said, actually made sense.

stress is just the product of worrying about stuff that's gonna happen - or stuff that might happen if you do this and don't do that. all this shit i was telling him about.....i have to do anyways. i mean it's gonna come and i'm gonna deal with it cuz that's what you do when stuff comes. you deal with it. so basically i was stressing about stuff i had to do. it would be more productive to NOT stress, NOT worry, and just DO it. don't think about it and take the plunge. i was annoyed cuz i was at work and not at home studying for government, doing calculus, writing my college essays, writing my gov't essays, blah blah blah. and the more i thought about it the more flustered i became. so he told me to just do it. it sounds so simple, but when you're stressed you don't think simply. it's like you go out of your way to make things complicated.

so i had some good laughs with jeff tonight and left work in a happier mood than i had been in when i got there. that's the nice thing about working with jeff - i always get a laugh. he's such a goofball.

i have all this crap do do this weekend. i have a government test tomorrow. rehearsals are gonna get hectic. but it's ok. because stressing about it is just gonna waste my time.

the fog is thick tonight. kinda nice actually.
