End of the semester – the best and worst part of the year. Final exams, final projects, packing, summer break. I feel like I have been counting down to summer break since the semester began. My to-do list is becoming smaller and smaller as I cross things off. I can see the finish line. However, for now, this shit sucks.
The end of the semester is extremely overwhelming. Most days, it feels like I do not have time to breathe. Burnout is an understatement right now. I feel tired so often that I just want to curl into bed and watch my comfort show. Many days that is exactly what I do. I’m sick of hearing people say, “it’s the final push!” because this has been one long and aggressive push. Between class and work, summer break sounds far away.
A break is needed by everyone I know right now. I cannot wait for it to be here.
