Even the Night Owl seems to recognize the needs of students during the last few days of classes. They have begun selling rubber poo pig key chains that can function as a novelty stress ball. These key chains are an incredibly vulgar yet amusing way to de-stress. The Night Owl also provides No Doz for slackers like myself who are staying up as much as possible to get all that work done that they put off last week. Just don t forget to follow the box s warning about only taking one pill in a 3-4 hour period.
Friends are also a great de-stressing resource.
Take a break every now and then to go talk to your friends or just to have a bit of quiet time to yourself. It ll do your psyche good. And no matter what, remember to breathe in deep even breaths before you confront any major tests or projects. If all else fails, try tackling the problem head on in a paper. Write down how you feel, how you ve been coping with your feelings and try to come up with better ways to cope with your feelings.
