yesterday,after an especially harrowing day at work. i spent all afternoon walking around the mall, eating Red Vines, eating soup and siomai, watching Nikita, being quiet.then going to the hospital callroom where i met up with my other co-residents who just happened to be there. and then i saw a friend. and had french fries.
i didn't change. just paired my work shirt with a pair of khaki shorts. not that the detail mattered. anyway...
i felt a little better afterwards, but not really. Like I said, it was a stressful time. not much i can do about it though.
ah...stressful times. when will they ever end?
(psychosomatic stuff pertain to emotional problems and anxieties manifesting as physical symptoms.)

"If it's in my head, why is the pain in my stomach???" I forget where I heard that old line. I hope you find fun distractions to put some mental distance between yourself and the stress.

don't worry, the stressful times WILL end. That's how i felt during my wedding planning "will it ever end?" and of course it did, and all the stress was worth it. :P Take care of yourself! Thanks for the congratulations on our wedding :)
