This week was really exhausting for me. I had a course exercise presentation coming up, so I was nervous from the beginning of the week. I wanted to prepare as much as possible, but I didn’t have enough time or energy because I had to work five days in a row. Working five consecutive days was harder than I expected. Each shift felt longer and heavier than usual. By the last day, I felt completely worn out. Every morning I woke up tired and every night I went to bed with a headache. I could feel my body asking for rest, but I just had to keep going.
The presentation finally took place, and I think I did okay. I did my best with the energy I had, but I still felt a bit frustrated because I knew I could have performed better if I hadn’t been so tired. Still, I felt relieved when it was over, like a heavy weight was lifted from my shoulders.
This week, I also had a small fight with my girlfriend. It wasn’t a big issue, but because I was stressed and tired, I reacted too strongly. She was also emotional, so we misunderstood each other. Later, we talked calmly and apologized, and everything is fine now. I’m really grateful for her.
I hope next week will be more peaceful, and I want to rest and take care of myself.
