A little stressed out

Went to the stress thingy today. Partially it was for the Physics points, because frankly I'm waning in there; haven't turned in hw since like feb.

I thought the lady was really cool. The presentation was not what you expected. Basically she said it's how we think that gives us stress. So it IS our faults. Great; thanks for the encouragement.

My unofficial top 5 for the week or until I do another top 5 list:

5. Memory by Sugarcult
4. The Outsider by A Perfect Circle
3. Megalomaniac by Incubus
2. Reptilia by The Strokes
1. Dare You To Move by Switchfoot

I was doing air guitar when the video for Reptilia was on earlier; granted, no one was looking. Hey, how much do guitars go for anyway? Including amps and all that other good stuff?

Back to the psychology. SO she gave us this list of 10 common procedures that people perceive and from there get stressed- I apply to like 8 of them. That's not good, is it? Especially the one where you don't regard the good stuff at all and only concentrate on the bad. I do that so much; like when I found out I won the state math contest. My initial response was YAY I WON YAHOO but then I HAD to figure out how many I missed. It was like that in Mathcounts, too. I was soooo pissed cuz I missed one at the regionals. And here I was complainnig about getting a 44 out of 46 (it was a 2 point question). My problem is that I think that perfection is expected, the norm, and that anything less than that is crap. Now I know it's changed a bit since I came to UHS, especially this year. I came in this year I probably wouldn't get straight A's, but oh how I still want to stay above 4.0. I am killing myself for a little piece of paper that says "Graduation with honors" and am I just crazy or are my priorities in the wrong place?
