Life is stressful but how you react is everything

[TerrexLee]

In a moment of metacognition, I realised the events that happened yesterday demonstrate that meditation may be helping me deal with stress way better than I thought.

It’s going to be a personal and reflective post so forgive me if this post doesn’t bring anything of value to you.

Why was yesterday stressful?

Well, firstly, it’s the exam marking period for us. Exam marking and the subsequent processing of results is a stressful affair because the school makes such a big deal of it and any errors that may get picked up during this period.

Second, we’re given this unnaturally short period to mark (think hundreds of scripts within 4-5 days) which cannot be extended when your exam paper comes in at the end of the examination schedule. That’s exactly the scenario I’m faced with this semester.

On top of that, I have administrative duties as the coordinator for Year One modules. This means that I am the recipient of the exam documents concerning all these modules. No thanks to the lateness of my paper, all these documents were only being submitted to me at the moment when I was about to begin marking.

Throw in the fact that I’m the class advisor for a student who missed all her exams due to medical reasons and I have the school asking me if she’ll be able to take the make-up papers.

On top of that, the cheap ballpoint pen provided by my school leaked and stained my shirt pocket; subsequent attempts to remove the ink even left a stain on my bedroom door. At this point, I felt like a loser.

must stay cool, calm and collected at all instances. but theory is easier than practice. for example when you clean the bathroom sink alone and there’s nobody else in the house but after thoroughly scrubbing and drying it to spotless condition suddenly you see a very long strand of hair appearing on the white porcelain before your very eyes, what do you do? you check your head and your hair is very short. you look into mirror and it’s you in mirror. but when you look down in sink another long strand materializes out of nowhere. what do you do? do you think of virgin auntie stalking you all the way from nusa duta? scared or amused? for me i don’t get scared i get mad. i’ll just imagine an auntie wants to fuck with me and i’ll fuck her back.

Is the long strand of hair blond, brunette, dark? You need to know the race of this female ghost, so that you can engage the correct medium or exorcist.

It's safe to surmise you have multiple unwanted invisible guests! They're having a party and you're not invited. Mostly caucasians and chinks. Your "alter virgin auntie ego" may have started manifestation, you'll probably need to make a trip to Nusa Duta to spurge yourself of"it" effectively. Good luck!
