Personal Entry: Hectic
I am without a diary because my third one ran out of paper and I still haven’t bought myself a new one. This means that I did not record my having gotten a “normal” job and such, I feel aweful about this.
I have a highly selective memory, and I do not know what criteria it uses to store certain events and dispose of others. That is a great chunck of the reason why I need a diary; if I do not jot things down I am likely to forget them. And I hate forgetting life events, it makes me feel so confused and lost when someone mentions something later on in time and I fail to recall anything about it.
So back to the point of the post’s title. This has been a hectic week, I am exhausted. I think it’s been like that because of my starting a new job as I still, frequently, attend to university lectures. It is probably more psychological than physical since I do not really involve myself in physical, manual labor, anywhere.
It is possible that I think too much about the two major balls I have in the air, without realising that I am infact managing superbly. I am not lagging behind as far as studies are concerned, even though I am a bit detached. And I am perfectly able to do my job the right way. What is this recurrent stream of thinking set to do, then? and more importantly, why should this interest you and why am I telling you about my week?

Hey tololy ;) I’m sure you’ll manage your two balls more than fine :D I know what you mean though about feeling tired just from thinking… sometimes I feel that I spend more time thinking about the things that need to be done than actually doing them, and it does wear a person out!!
Good luck with it all, and do keep those diary-type posts coming; they’re a pleasant read :)

Muppetlord, you are right. That’s the answer I thought of later on, I am telling you things because I can, and because I do not have a diary these days. So simple and so true.
Welcome back Petra! Long time no see, I thought you abandoned the box and young souls. I am relieved to know you are back, thank you and ya3teeki el 3afyeh.
Black Cats, my memory, as I mentioned before, operates in a peculiar way.
Welcome to the box Lina. I am so glad you decided to drop by, I am an avid reader of your turmoil. Thank you kindly for the nice comment.

Thank you Roba. I am really glad you and others enjoy reading what I write. It means a lot to me, to be able to connect to others through words.
