Stress. It's the feeling of sitting on your butt for too long and the need to move it. It's when you've held your breathe for too long. It's when someone grabs your crotch and just won't let go... and it's a guy... a bad-looking one at that... and he's looking at you like your a puppy dog.

My question is: Is stress important? Is it neccessary? Do we need it? Is neccessary spelled with so many Cs and Ss? Stress...

I'm a student. I have to study. It's my job apparently. But most of the time, i don't. And then projects come. Monday, my project mates say hand in your part of the report on Friday. On Thursday, they call to remind. I say sure, don't worry about it. I rush home to do it. Stress.

Exams coming. I need to study for it. I attended about 7 of 15 lectures. My soul was in the room 2 out of these 7. Paper is tommorow. I've studied for the past 3 days. Averaging a total of 2 hours each. Paper is tommorow. Stress.

So we still haven't answered the question: Is stress good for us?

My take is that stress needs to be present strategically. Like say, for me, 3 minutes before i die. At the time, i'll suddenly remember the will. I'll reach out for my money-sucking son-in-law by the collar and tell him to get it. I croak move your butt or i'll strike off the million i promised you. Then i'll take it and strike off the million anyway. There stress is gone. And i die.

Stress is something to be conquered. It's illogical if you don't want to do something about it. Say that guy is still grabbing your crotch and looking at you... DO SOMETHING! Unless of course, you are... erm...

Yes. Do something. Don't let it eat you up. You know you don't taste nice. Have a sore throat? Remove it. Can't sleep? Slam your head in the wall. Guy still grabbing your crotch? Pound him. Now, that's a stress reliever.

And got a paper tommorow and you got to relax? Blog about it!
