things are not getting easier,

but they're becoming more manageable. I'm up to 900 words on my EE (woo! 1/4 of the way there!), I'm learning to sleep and eat and do my other homework with expediency, and I'm not freaking out over things. Not until Friday will I allow myself to freak out about the things I want to freak out about. Which actually are relevant things that deserve time and effort, and haven't been given time and effort. But things will work out for the best. I have an idea or two buzzing around and I know that if I get to 2000 words by Sunday, I will be okay.
