Stress

Tonic release of glucocorticoids and other stress hormones have been shown to have detrimental effects on sleep, immune function, and various organs and body symptoms.

Good thing I saved all of my stress up for the last week and a half before thanksgiving break. I consider this an investment towards my future health and well-being. So long as writing my comps doesn't kill me on the way.

Accomplished today:

• Scored an hour of data... 6h 15min to go!
• Umm, went to class?
• Started preliminary reading. By "started," I mean "napped through."
• Organized my journal article sources into topical and methodological piles, with color-coded binder clips.
• Began intensive freaking-out process, phase one. Current status: denial.
