Semi-spontaneous year-end reflections and musings

Hey folks,

As is often the case, I don’t know where my time is going lately. I had an exam yesterday, for which I admittedly only needed a cram session or two (it pays to pay attention throughout the year). I was pretty stressed about it, but in all likelihood, I got a pass. :P I have another exam in a couple days, then I’ve got Christmas like crazy up til the new year.

In my free time, I began Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, and while it seems like a fine sRPG offering, I’m not sure I’ll stick with it due to how long those types of games take (and often just to win one battle.. ^^;)

My perennial wish is to find more time for the site, and most of all, for the videos. But I have to keep it in balance, which is so hard for me to do. It’s been a year and a half since I had what was possibly my first true nervous breakdown, when I had hives like the measles and angioedema (tissue swelling) all over my body–eyes, lips, hands, feet… it went on for about 8 days at that full-blown scale, during which time I could only sleep in the bathtub, and for weeks afterwards, any pill I touched would always trigger a severe reaction.

It was a stress reaction. I was a full-time student and working full-time that summer, doing a course and a blog on the side–and when I wasn’t enslaved to my fatigue and napping, I was trying to make time for people. That was probably the second-most stressful time of my life, next to late elementary school. I had it coming to me for a while.

I’m not looking for sympathy or anything.. I just felt like sharing. Things are a lot better now, and I will be out with a new video soon :)
