This week shouldn't be called "orientation week," it should be called "hell week." The days are long, the activities are transparent in their purpose, and the classes are held at times when we're all tired, worn out, and can no longer pay attention. I'd really like to just get going on school work.
I wore the wrong clothing today to the lunch. They said "business casual," so I wore a short-sleeved button-up shirt with slacks. I guess I was under-dressed. I'm just so tired of doing this week so far that I can't even fake a smile on my face.
I'm reminded why I stopped studying business in the first place: it's the people. Of course, I dislike psychology people too after having gone through a semester of a psychology grad school. I just find that a lot of people in my program are overbearing, arrogant, or just plain irritating.
While the above feelings still hold true, my mood is much better now than it was when I originally wrote the text above (about three hours ago).
I'm happier now because I called a cute girl, relaxed for an hour or so, and talked to a friend. I met with some local professionals tonight and some of them were just fantastic. One man in particular was my favorite and I'm eager to be in contact with him. I actually made some good contacts tonight! And after hearing some of the professionals speak, my anxiety has been reduced.
I consider any reduction in my anxiety to be done by God and only by Him. This week has really been a rollercoaster for my emotions. I'm up, I'm down, I'm up, I'm down.... I want to end this week up. I want to end this YEAR up.
