*sigh*

Would anyone care to send well-wishes my way?  I've got about two weeks left of college and I'm feeling a distinct lack of caring about schoolwork, not to mention burnt-out.  There's a twenty page paper I've barely started, a 15 word dictionary project I'm tired of, and three finals. And I just don't... really care anymore.

So, yeah. Any energy someone could beam to me would be awesome.

Well Wishes!
Also, in case it makes you feel any better, I'm writing a Supernatural fanfic in French. It's called Singe-Ange, or In Which Castiel is a White-Cheeked Gibbon.

Yes, he's a monkey! He's also the chief acrobat and accountant at the Cirque du Lune! I'm writing this without ever having seen a single episode with Castiel, but apparently I'm getting his characterization right.

And I'm laying part of the blame for this on you, with your tempting little drabbles and general glee about this show.

I'm right there with you, sis. Except you're gonna be finished soon, whereas I have a long way to go still. So, take some joy in that.

(Plus, I love you, so what more could you ask for?)

(*snort* Yeah, good luck with that...)

Energy-transfer initiated!

Might I also suggest a bath? Preferably with scented bathing salts. I've always found a bath incredibly helpful when I'm drained.

I am beaming you energy and well-wishes!

maybe just take a few hours and chill, sit down and do absolutely nothing of import. my friend once told me that brains are like saws: you use them too much, they get dull, and they need to be sharpened before they can work well again. which is cheesy, but it helps me, anyway.

feel better! <3

*happy thoughts*

i am sending every happy thought i have your way! i don't have many, granted, as i am in the same boat (rrgh school) but!! all happy thoughts i can spare i am sending to you!

when i'm feeling burnt out i play mario party on my ds. it's simple and doesn't take much brain power, but it's fun and means i can yell at peach for being an awful bitch all the time, and its so satisfying when i win cause i feel like i've accomplished something.

Imagine if you will...I had this very same malaise a mere quarter century ago. Time flies when you are having fun.
Lay in a supply of chocolate and coca cola. These days will pass and you will be free of the tethers that bind.
I for one was very glad to be free of my constant companion 20 lb back pack.
Oh and for an energy boost try 10 jumping jacks to get the blood pumping and clear your head. Perhaps we should go ride a horse?
Hugs and more hugs.

Think of it as only 2 weeks, and only have this much left to do of your whole college (or at least this part) life. Does that help? No?
Don't think of it as all of that much. Just take chunks at a time. And then you'll never have to do it again! And do you really want to quit now after all that time working toward this moment?
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well wishes on the way! Hehe.

You're almost there - hang tight! :)

Ugh, man, senioritis. Just keep reminding yourself that once you plough through this shit you'll be well and truly done.

Ok, so am in a vaguely similar position, with identical feelings (biggest exam of my career, theoretically the last one I'll ever have to do) coming up-- but can I get myself in gear to get going? CAn I start writing the goddam thing I have to write?
No

BUT

I suppose both of us are just gonna have to do it-- I keep reminding myself that it'll be worth it in the end

So to you (and to me) GOOD WISHES and lots of positive energy-- if this gets done properly-- it's gonna be so amazing to be free of it all

Is there any way to plan something amazing for just after your deadline, as a treat?? Thats helped to motivate me a bit.

*cuddles*

We've got a similar problem over here. Twenty four days to our Art & Design Summer Show (they moved it up a whole month!!!) and most people have barely even started making up their projects. Talk about fail. :/

Hope you feel better soon. I'm sure I'll be able to squeeze out some time if you need a bit of help :)

[identity profile] loveandthetruth.livejournal.com 2010-04-28 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not so much the deadline, now that they've opened up the pattern cutting rooms for us for the next three weeks. It more the inter-departmental organisation because all the art school are chipping something in and my tutors are disorganised like woah. Honestly, I don't know how they expect us to know what we're doing when they don't.

But I'm sure we'll be fine. :)

ATTENTION. THIS IS BOBBY SPEAKING. LAST I HEARD, NOBODY AROUND HERE IS ALLOWED TO GIVE UP. THERE IS A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL. NAME IT NED IF YOU HAVE TO. BUT NED WONT BE VERY HAPPY WITH YOUR GPA IF YOU DONT SIT DOWN AND GET IT DID. YOURE A SENIOR. YOURE A PRO AT THIS NOW. GIT HER DONE.

Here is the energy I've been using to write three pages of final paper a day every day.

Oh goodness honey, I do hope you feel better and you get your energy boost back.

Sweet, inspiration will present itself when you least expect it.

Oh man, schooling...I remember you...not necessarily fondly.

**hugs**

You may have the energy I reserve for running after kindergartners when I am supplying in their class. *gives to you*

Okay, let's make a deal. I've got five, or is it six more weeks, on my academic career and I'm am procrastinating like it's a sport. We shall pretend like slaying these papers/tests/projects is as important as saving the world. If we finish, Frodo throws the damn ring into the Mountain, and we can get drunk with those little Hobbits Merry and Pippin.

We are almost done; let's...not procrastinate? Hell, even me typing this right now is me avoiding my midterms...Terrible isn't it?

You know this means playing the LotR soundtrack while you write, right?

It makes it that much more epic.

[identity profile] soxykitty.livejournal.com 2010-04-29 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
Oh man I feel you on not caring about finals! I just want it to be done with so bad that I don't really care how I do ... I swear I feel like the least motivatd person I know *sigh* ... but hey we both just have to tough it out for two more weeks, we just have to push through and the summer is ours! :o)
