GRE Tutoring's Over

I said goodbye to my first GRE tutoree (?) this past weekend. The reasons for that is 1.) our schedules don't mesh anymore, 2.) I can't meet everyday during the week, and 3.) she gave up and is going to take a different standardized test instead (this is probably the biggest reason). I'm still waiting to get back my Barron's prep book practice test CD, which I lent to her. I'm supposed to get it in the mail.

Last week I was totally sick, probably because of all of the stress leading up to the Psychology GRE Subject Test on Saturday. Actually, as soon as I was finished with it I felt amazing. Even though I'm still coughing, I've definitely learned the hard way that stress really does exacerbate things.

Finishing that test has also given me a lot more time to just relax, catch up on homework, and pay my bills. Yup... I've got three envelopes right next to me that have payments within them. I just didn't have the mind to pay attention to those kinds of important things while I was studying. That's probably a bad thing. I'm wondering how much I need to reconsider my priorities. Good thing that I didn't miss any deadlines!

Speaking of deadlines, now comes the rest of the application process. Let me just say that I have an Excel sheet that has essentially taken over my life. I am obsessed with this Excel sheet. I put it all together so that I could keep my applications in order. I might talk about how I did it in a future post because it's very detailed. Too detailed.

Alrighty! Time to go read! (Ah... leisure...)
