behind on life

school makes me feel behind.

while i struggle to keep up with 300+ pages of reading a week, i seem to lose touch with the rest of my life. does anyone else feel this way?

there are so many things i need to do that directly impact the next couple years of my life - that directly affect my ordination process! - and somehow they have already gotten squeezed out of the forefront of my thought.

i need to:
1. pick a moderator for my psych evaluation so that i can advance in candidacy (this is an elementary step that most everyone has already done...a couple years ago.)
2. pick references for my application for afffiliation to LTSP, also to help with advancement in candidacy, as well as coordination of my lutheran year and internship
3. finish my autobiographical essay for my application to LTSP...and finish the application itself
4. apply to CPE sites so that i can do my CPE next summer in order to fulfill ordination requirements
5. keep bugging my field education advisor so that he will actually answer me about my field ed placement, since my graduation directly depends upon it

argh!

i feel generally behind on life. i feel as if i am playing catch-up on things that should have happened a year or two ago. there is a dumb nagging thought in my head that doesn't wonder if it would help my general stress level if i were to do a th.m next year, and stick around princeton for another year in order to give the rest of my life time to sort itself out.

but i don't really want to do that...

...do i?
