Ticker
I made a countdown ticker for my exam date. Being aware of the precious time remaining helps me prioritize what I need to do and want to do before the date, so I can show what I know. I am aware that I need to do some more reading, take some more notes, create brief summaries of pieces, practice talking about my areas with peers, meet with my professors again, and polish my paragraphs and prospectus! On top of all that, I will juggle other school, work, and life responsibilities :) I feel strongly that panicking will not help, and I think that having *some* fear is a good motivator. I also realize that I might need to ask for help and be a bit flexible---about school and home stuff. November might be a good month to eat pb& j sandwiches :P

Here for any help I can give...
It's such a *performance*, orals. And you're going to do an awesome job.
PB&J, maybe some frozen meals? I think I ate a lot of pizza and Trader Joe's frozen tamales (mmmm, one of my favorite no effort meals). I do also remember finding cooking to be a very good break, because I had to fully think about it, and my brain needed a break from the constant hum of thinking about my areas.
Talk to you tomorrow!
