Chillaxin’
I think I had forgotten how cool it can be to just hang out with some friends. After end of term, that’s mostly what I’ve done. I’ve been out for dinner with them, jammed a bit (which I hadn’t done in years), played video games and shot the shit for hours. I’ve met some truly excellent new people and gotten to know old friends better. Life has been quite easy after massive stress. Still, I can’t help but feel that I would recover better with some structure in life at the moment. Also, looking at my calendar, the start of the new term is but a few weeks away…
But first there’s more hanging out and touristy stuff as I’ve got friends coming over. Hopefully the weather won’t be too calamitous.

Goddamnit, some four, five hours till I need to be up for the flight over and I’m still drinking coffee here. Too psyched to go to sleep. Yeah, taking a break from stuff is always good. Suddenly all of my work-related stress just vanished this evening, after I got the confirmation that I’m changing jobs again.
Even if the start of the new term seems to loom over you, remember that a single weekend is normally enough to unwind. Even if you’ve been pretty broken over stuff, a week or so off should do the trick.
