This week I have been real stressed out with all the work that I wanted to get done before I went back to Baltimore for break. I am excited to get a week to relax without worrying about classes and lacrosse. For this weeks blog I decided to use the stress diagram method to help me get through the week. I felt this strategy to be very helpful to me because I am a visual learner and I was able to lay out my top five stresses out in front of me. I am especially stressed out in my Religion and History class because I still have a lot of work left. We only have three weeks left in class and I have two big papers and a presentation left to complete. I currently have a low B in the class and really need to do well on these next for assignments so I maintain that B average. For my History class I have a paper due the Tuesday after we get back from Thanksgiving, which is our final paper. I am on the borderline of C+ and B- area and am really stressed out that if I do not do well on these assignments I will not get a B in this class. On top of those classes I still have to stay on top of CLS exploration project, which is due in two weeks. So I decided to write out my top five stresses before I leave for break. I have final exams 5th on my list because luckily I only have one final exam which is December 14th in Human Sex.
- Rel. Papers
- Religion Presentation
- History Paper
- Finish Fall Ball off strong
- Final Exam
Overall, I found this strategy effective and very useful because I am a visual learner and was able to write out my top five stresses and know what I have to really focus and do well on so once I accomplished the tasks I will feel a lot more relaxed.
