Another thing I had forgotten about submitting assignments is how difficult it is to get back to the normal studying afterwards. After going all out and being in a perpetual state of adrenalin pumped wakefulness, I always feel that I deserve a little rest. Then, before I know it, a week has passed, as will be the case after this weekend, during which I have very little opportunity to study. Strangely I don't even feel like I've had a break. This happens every single time. Ah well, at least I know that I am always able to catch up. Different people work in different ways, and this self-created stress overload followed by complete inactivity has always been my way.
I had also forgotten the huge number of people who start getting stressed on the forums, wondering when they will get their results. This is one of the few things that I am quite relaxed about. I quite like the window where there is a possibility of any grade. It allows for daydreaming, no different to the type people do just before the lottery numbers are drawn, I imagine.
There are unlikely to be many other opportunities to send a relaxing vibe out into the OU community, as I am usually the one suffering the anxieties. So this is good. What's done is done, don't worry about when the results will come, it will only make time pass slower. Instead, kick back, have a beer, and maybe roast something. Roasted food warms the brain as much as the stomach, and relaxes it I think I will go and do just that.
