Stress

I get stressed so easily. This is something I will readily admit to needing to work on. As of late I have had real trouble with it. I'm hoping that once summer comes I will be able to figure out a productive way of dealing with this. I have a few ideas. My plans for summer, besides working, are what is keeping my hopes up. I plan to start viola again. Those of you who know me well know I hated it when I played before. all of 13-14 years. I see now that it really can help me stay calm. I miss it in a way too. It was something that I had to concentrate on completely which helped me clear my mind of everything else going on. I also am going to learn a language. Not sure which though. I started Italian a few years ago. I haven't done anything with it in a long time though. I learned it because I used to go to Italy every summer. It's been 2 summers now since I last went and there seems to be no hope of going as I used to in the near future. So now I am deciding between Italian (which I love dearly and am Italian at heart) and French. I'm hoping that both Jono and I can learn the same one so I would have someone to practice with. I'll have to see though. I'm also going to start working out. I have been meaning and trying to get into the habit of doing this but it's hard. I'm hoping once I have more time this summer I can work harder on this. I also am going to try to cook more. I've become really interested in cooking as it seems to be something I must learn now. I'm hoping that these things all together will keep me busy and focused on things I love. Only 2 more weeks till I can start all these ideas. wish me luck!
