Organization is My Flaw.

I've been rushing around so much lately that I'm just now looking at the December calendar. And wow, is it full. I think there were maybe 13 days in the entire month that I didn't have anything written/scheduled. Thirteen out of 31. That just goes to show you. I mean, I have 5 calendars (a planner in my backpack, my Yahoo calendar, my campus calendar, my paper calendar on the wall, and my markerboard calendar [which is the most accurate, as it's erasable])... but when you forget to sync all of 'em up... you tend to lose a lot.

Last night I didn't feel like sleeping, so I didn't go to bed until sometime after midnight. As finals are approaching, I'm finding myself automatically flipping into "crisis mode," in which I run on less sleep and flip my internal clock to a semi-nocturnal state. My internal clock is friggin' amazing. Even if I forget to set my alarm, I wake up 10 minutes before the alarm goes off. If I take a nap, I tend to know what time it is when I wake up without even looking at a clock. My body doesn't like transitioning into the "crisis" state, but I remarkably made the shift quite well this time.

I can't wait for December to be over. Sure, when the spring term begins on January 12, my schedule will be chaotic, but it'll be much more managable than what's on my plate right now.

I apologize in advance if I forget anything, if I grate on people's nerves, or if I become more distracted than normal. I also apologize in advance if I crack under the pressure. Dani's just stretched very thin right now.
