Stress is an over-used word.

I always say I'm stressed, but to say the truth, sometimes I don't mean it. Rather I say stress when I just simply feel tired, or when everyone else is "stressed" too.

I think I finally realised I'm truly stressed today. It's when this sense of despair and helplessness creeps in, and you suddenly feel that everyone around you is just speeding by. You feel there's too much to be done, and really too little time to get anything done.

And when the date draws near, the initial tingling sensation of fear starts to grow into a full-fledged tremble, and you rush into adrenaline mode, deeply regretting why you only started at this point of time.

That's stress, my friend.

(By the way, shot down 2 reports already. I'm just left with 1 more due on Sunday.)
