<< I think you seriously need to take a break >>
I disagree with that. urban, the only reason you're stressed is b/c you stay up all night doing homework or studying for a test because you procrastinated earlier - I'm in the same boat as you...or rather, was. I was ready to beat my head against my table b/c I was so stressed out with school and though I had to do so much. the real reason was b/c after school, I go online and start homework at 5 or 6...procrastinate in between and stop at 7-8 to eat dinner. after that, I usually watch tv up to 9 or 10 and resume hw at 9/10 to 1 in the morning. now, I'm starting homework at 4 and am trying to concentrate while doing - that's why I haven't been posting much lately at anandtech or anywhere else. and this whole week was probably my least stressful week despite of 2 english essays being due, 2 anatomy quizzes (it's an honors class so it's pretty tough), 1 quiz in pre calc, plus hw every night from other classes, not to mention some commitment to extracurricular activities. you're not stressed b/c of school, but b/c of procrastinating (hell, you're a PLATINUM member...2000+ posts). if you weren't exaggerating about the massive amt of hw in spanish, then I'll give you credit for that. otherwise, you spend too much time on anandtech and then bitch afterwards b/c of grades dropping (I'm guilty of this too). so try to limit your time online and invest those times in studying.
