Do you ever get that urge...?

Published on April 29, 2006 By Sugar High Elf In Misc

Do you ever get the urge to do something, anything? You feel like you should get up and dance, run in the rain, drive all night, spend waaay to much money on something stupid... anything manic will do.

Maybe it's pre-finals stress. Maybe it's because I haven't seen a human being for the last 24 hours. Maybe because I finally feel a little better. Maybe because I don't have a car right now and I can't go anywhere.

But I have that itch. I want to go do something crazy. Instead, I'll study my German.

Studying german sounds pretty wild and crazy to me

Yeah Sugar High (and btw, Welcome Back!!!)... in 1978 I woke up with that urge... I just knew I had to do something to get the urge to quiet down...

I ran away from home.

sometimes that urge just makes us do stupid stuff... doesn't it? :~D

I drove across the state one night starting at 2am one time. Don't know what came over me. When I got back home, my roomates were getting ready to call the cops. I felt kinda bad, but I just had to get away.

Other than that, I usually get a tatoo.

And thanks for the welcome back. I appreciate it.

Yup, that sounds like a natural youthful tendency. You're strapped down with all the things you have to do, but you've got all of this youthful energy that wants to pull you in every other direction. Behaving responsibly for prolonged periods of time can cause that restless energy to build up until you explode!

Go ahead and explode, we've all done it from time to time. Long drives, manic physical exercise, crazy shopping sprees. Just be prepared to face any negative consequences after you've got it all out of your system. Better yet, find a way to release your frustrations without incurring any negative consequences. We've all been there.

I did worse than I ever thought. I wrote up about fifteen of my residents for noise violations. My friend, another RA and I went on a bitch hunt. That really made me feel better!

Now they get to get in trouble and I feel much better.

And I studied. Whohoo!

I've never gone completely crazy to where I've had negative consequences later. Why add more stress when I'm just trying to relieve stress?
