STRESS RELIEF
Are you feeling a little stressed?  Under pressure? Don't know what you are doing or where you are going?

Do these eyes remind you of your own?  

Or do you feel like this?

Or do these images remind you of yourself?

Stress seems to be an IB/AP pre-occupation, and dealing with it is a necessity.  First, keep things in perspective.  There are more important things in life than this course.  Talk to Mr. Roswell:  He's not really that scary.  (Nobody could be.)  His children both survived his course, although he made sure they were not in his class!  His cats like him, if and whenever he feeds them.

If you are looking for mental recreation on the web, here are a few sites to try.  Remember, a short mental break is good, but if you don't come in from the playground, you will miss out on the next learning experience.  A break can prevent a breakdown, but too many breaks and you'll be even more stressed asking "Where did the time go?"

This page is dedicated to Edna St. Vincent Millay, who said it far better than I ever could:

I burn my candle at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends,
It gives a lovely light!
