The stress is finally getting to me. All the homework. The big research paper I have due tomorrow. Being at school for 12 hours a day. Trying to be a good leader, daughter, and friend...
I've always been quite the introvert. I'm the kind of person who likes people in small doses. I don't mind being home alone on the weekends. I've found that I like my mom better when I don't see her every hour of the day (no offense, mom). Heck, I've even grown to hate sleepovers because 1) I like my own bed, 2) I like sleeping in, 3) I don't like the awkwardness of waking up, and 4) I like being by myself.
I don't really care if I walk alone in the hallways. I like working on projects by myself. I prefer watching movies by myself. And I especially don't like having people over to my house unless we go somewhere.
Lately, being crammed backstage with dozens of loud teenagers is really getting to me. I know I can be one too, but the level of disrespect meshed with the EXTREME obnoxiousness of kids who really don't care if they have their lines memorized is draining.
I think I've been around people too much lately.
It's true. I'm busy every weekend, get home at 7 on week nights... And Sundays are filled with endless homework, church, and youth group.
I don't know how I will survive tech week next week. We have ONE week till we open and not only are we not prepared, but I am thoroughly annoyed already.
Respect has always been a big issue for me. It really pisses me off when adults get treated in a way that is completely inappropriate. And it's really too bad when a group of kids screw it up for everyone...
"Never underestimate my Jesus. You tell me that there's no hope, I'm telling you you're wrong. Never underestimate my Jesus. When the world around you crumbles, He will be strong.
