Coping with Stress

I believe that everyone in this world have to face with stress on their day life. As for me, I have a lot of stress everyday when I am at school, at work, even at my house.
In fact, when I at school, I always worry about how to prepare good for my class, how to get all of my homework done for class. However, I have the most stress at my work place, because I alway think of how much time I have to do homework at home?, I also need to complete my task everyday at work. Because sometime, I have to bring my work go home and finished it for the nextday, for that reason I won’ t able to do my homework or studying. Furthermore, when I am home, I ran out of time, I did not have time to study, and i felt bad that I did not care about my family much.
At first, I felt fustrated when I wake up in the morning, I kind of gave up to anything. I don’t want to anything. After that, I realize, there is something more difficult in life, and I thought why don’t I stand up and fight back this stressful. I knew there is someone could able to cope with stress so well, and I asked my self, Why other people could it? Shouldn’t I try it and prove my self.
Day by day, I have learn a lot of thing, I knew that I have to face with to many problem when the day is going to start, and I think that is good for me, because i knew something will be happening. Eventhough, I have a lot stress everyday, but I have learn to make them become my goal, and avoid them as stress. For example, at school I tried to do my best, prepared good, and concentrated on my class. At work, I gave my self a goal, that I have to comple my work on time, also need to stop thinking about anything not related to my job. When I got home, I created the schedule for myself, and that is really helped to put me in order of doing something. Finally, It took me two weeks, to set up all of this thing, I got time to finish homework, and completed my task at work. Beside that, I really happy that I have some spare time with my family.

coping with stress

One of the streeful event in my life at the moment is time management with college, family, friend, and boyfriend. I am the type of person who like to make people happy and so I would try my best to spend time with them, but it is not easy when I have to deal with college, family, friends, and boyfriend at the same time. With me, I am able to deal with stress very well by simply listening to music or get some rest. I actually the type of person who like pressure. I work better when I am under pressure. It keep me from being bored since I get bord easily.

Coping with stress.

I did cope well with the stress. The biggest stress is health in my life. As I get older, I am concerned about my health. Suddenly, I have got some problem in my neck a few months ago. Thereby, I had to go to the chiropractic and I couldn`t do anything at all. In addition, The Another biggest stress is between the work and study. I am working at a gas station after the class. It's very hard to concentrate the study. For that reason gave a lot of stress to me, and headache. So I will be decide to quit the job or not.

stressful experience

I probably can describe last job as a stressful experience, I probably can mention different situations, but for example one day for some reason I end with five customers at the same time and its very hard ,because customers expect that they want to be attended quickly , I was feeling that they hate me ,because they just want to live, and i wanted that they live but unfornutaly i have to follow certains company rules, like the most important are the customer and for any reason customer can live unhappy.

I always try to be stress free, but the last week I had a lower grade in one of my class. I did not expect that and I had never guess that somethink like that can happen to me , so I was very tress .At the first time a gave up and started thinking about drop that class . After a quit feelback of my entire life ( were i am comming from, i thought of my family back home ...) I sait to my myself "' i have to figh, giving up is not an option "" . Now I am study very hard for this class and I hope I will do better at the next test.

The most stressful time in my life is the first month in Canada. When I finish high school in my country, I went to Seneca college in Toronto, I remember it was a winter when I got there. I felt so lonely plus it snowed all day long there,also I do not know anybody there,I was in big stress,my way to cope the stress was I talked to my family and friends online by computer everyday when I feel bad. Later I met some frieds there then my life became much better.I think if there was no internet that time I might went back to my country at first month already.Anyway the life in Toronto was happy and helpful to me.

A Stressful Event.

Stressful in life...

I have been facing lots of events or situations that stresses me in life. I always recal when I was in highschool, every time we have tests I probably feel worry about it even when I'm already. My physical health affected by the stress like stomache, sweating. But I can cope with my anxiety right before the test starts. For example, I said the myself that " Thao, you studied for it so just take it easy or it maybe worse 'cuz you worry too much"

My Stressful Event

When I was 22 years old, I had to join the Korean army because most Korean guy has to join the army. At that time, I entered in Chemisty Company intead of joining army, but it has same period of the army. While I was working for the company, I got stress a lot because my superior used to bother me. He alway gave to me a lot of work. Also, if he got a fault, he said to boss that fault was Taewan's fault. So, I had to agure with him. Then, he tried to shirk his reponsibility. One day, Boss was in the factory which me and him worked together after he went to sleep. At that time, I was working because he gave to me the work. Boss asked me where your superior is and then I said to him I did not know about that. And then the boss tried to find him and then found in company's domitary. Boss was really mad to him and then boss said to him that " you're fired!!". After that happened, I could move up to his position. At that time, I got a lot of stress, but I have done my best. That's why I coped well with the stress.

When I was young, I went to market with my mother. We bought many things, so we could not walk hand in hand. Few munites later, I had lost my way. Because I was so young, I just wandered from place to place. I felt much fear. Fortunately, somebody took me to the police office. Later, my parents pick me up from the police dffice. I was still crying and shaking. i could not forget about feeling by that time. So, I hate go somewhere alone. I think that feeling at that time was make me as a coward.

One of my stressful thing

When I was in the last year of elementrial school, we had to take a very important final exam for get into the new school. And there are many schools in the city, but looked like everyone wanted to get in the best middle school. I had to woke up early every morning as 6 o'clock,and studied a lot during the day time till about 11 o'clock. At that time, I was only 11 years old. I didn't really know what's stress? I just knew I needed to get in the school I wanted to go.But my mom was very worry about me. She said I didnt need to study that hard,health was more importan. I always got cold and had fever.Many times ,I didnt able to go to school, I felt really bad. I think that is my body felt stress, so I was always ill.

Cope with stress is important

When i got in three car accidents in past two years. Firt time i was really nervous and a lil scared so was every other time but after second car accident i wasnt worried it was scary i was sort of used to it. I deal with it pretty well i would not think about it too much because i knew i need to drive everyday and i cant afford to be afraid of driving. So i think even if people get in really bad car accident it is resonable to have few days to cope with stress and get back on the road. Because especially now in the days where people have to be able to drive everywhere which means just dont take to serious to your heart.

Language Art's stress

One of the most stresses that I have experienced is the falling of the GAGT for the Language Art when I was in high school. I worried so much because the pressure of going to college that I wont able to do when I missed that test. It was really hard for me to cope with stress that led by my lack knowledge. I was so stressful when I heard that news. At that time, I hate my life so much and blamed every horrible things on myself. I did not talk much, I even didn't get out of my house.
However, in one night, I thought my life shouldn't be this way, I have to try and fight for myself. I decided to study hard for the next comming test. I also try to read letterure novels as much as I could, and try to analyzed, thought of comprehension of the contants.
The result of working hard was what I expected. I finally past the test. That let me able to go to college that I have dreamed for long time. Hopefully, I won't ever get any kind of this stresses in my life.

People want to get best education for their life, it is started from child to when people old. Some times people need to hard study if their want to get successful in daily life. I had some stressful event in my life, it's about OSS exam in my country. OSS exam means; pass the final exam about high school.
Many years ago when I went to high school, I need to go best high school in my city if students want to go best high school need to pass OSS exam. I mean if student go to best high school student get best education, how to study for homework and how to get succes in their life it is really important step in their life. when I was a take first exam, I was failed first time. I didnt know how to study about OSS exam.I had new chance because OSS exams repaid 2 times in a year and I know I need more study about this exams. However, i did second times. Some times people get stressfull in daily life, we need to thing about our situation and then we could done stressful situation.

My feeling.......

After reading the story, I can understand the invisible wall between the boy and his father. That misunderstanding situation had happened to me. When I was in high school, I felt that my father and I had a invisible distance because we saw and thought about one thing in different ways. In addition, because of that little conflict occured, I couldn't say anything, just keep inside. When I'm growing up, suddenly study abroad, live faraway from home, I need to do everything by myself, my father talk to me, encourage me, and little by little we understand each other much better than in the past. We think the same, and even my father doesn't decide about my future I absolutely know that he wants me to become a strong, decisive, wise person in life.

Fear Of Death

If I was the boy schatz, I would had been really scared, because he didnt know the difference
that the French use Centigrade while Americans use Fahrenheit. At one point the boy asks, "About how long will it be fore I die?" . If they tell me that nobody would survive a fever of 44 degress, obviously he was bound to die from a 102. These are misunderastanding that happens every day. I Think the father needed to have some more communication with the Schatz about the fever, he needed to explain what the difference was instead of leaving him in bed and just go out.

A Fear of Death I have had as a child

When I was young, I did not know about a fear of death. Also I could not feel how afraid the death is. While I was growing up, I was realizing a fear of death little by little. When I was 14 years old, I got a serious injury that it caused by car accident. While I was riding my father's car, one of the following my car hit my father's car.

question 1

Oh,the doctor just said I have got a fever about hundred and two, how it can be, I remember last time when I was in France, somebody told me that people can not live more then forty-four degrees, and mine is already hundred and two, it is too much then the normal. But why I don't feel that bad,People always say before die someone always feel much better, that is so terrible.

The Boy is ill.

Human being have many fears and worry, it's just because of we are social animal. When a person is ill, they can not survive esily their family members and everybody worring about his or her health. If I sick i would be think, i want i will be okey very soon. I pray for my self and do my best to get out from that illness. I am in bed and i am sick, i comeup with first thought is i want my self be ready to do anything, i mean ready for war.

Fear of death

The first time i have been in the hospital when i broke my elbow when i was six years old. It was a very fearful time because there were many doctors trying to fix it and i was scared thinking that they might not fix it. However my parents were around me all the time which made me feel like everyhting is going to be ok. But i was not thinking about dying because at that time i did know much aboout death and how it rly works. So even i was not thinking about death i was still fear and scare. And the only thing that got me through a bad injury is parents suppost which i thinnk is one of the most important thing our parent give to us. Parents support is priceless and we need to respect that with greatfullness.

Worries of nonsences

I cann't sleep after listented to the decrision from doctor. I'm so worry about myself right now, the scarery of death. Basiclly, on my knowlege, I should die at this point, but I can't understant why does my father just annoy my fever. My fever right now is almost triple time more that normal. I'm so nervous and upset for myself and the way that my father treat me. When my father sat beside me, I felt so annoy because I dont think my illness is not that bad. But now he is going outside for hunting, Im so worry of getting dizzy or death and noone can help me out. Hic...hic... what should I do? Should I tell my father what I know and think? Im still thinking about that, but I won't give up and let myself be death.

My Death

Few munites ago, doctor was leave my house. He said my temparature is 102. I know this degree is very dangerous. I am near to death. I can hardly believe my dead. It was a shock to learn of my death. If I were to die few hours later, what would my parents and siblings do? I am so afraid my death.

No body care of me, father has just said he is going to hurt . But what else can I do? Lying in the bed and waitting for die! How many longer can I alive? I don't know, the french boy didn't tell me? After I die, where I am going ? I hope I can go to heaven, then I will see what is Angle lookes like. I will leave my father forever, he dosen't really care of me, so maybe is good to him. Time to die, bye bye everyone I love!

Pretend you are the boy Schatz

If I was the boy, I would probably not as worry as he did. To me, life comes and goes. Living and dying are just part of life. I would live my life to the fullest. I would not just lie in bed, pushing everyone away, and wait for my time to come. I do not see the point in doing so. Knowing that I would probably die soon, "I guess this is my time" would probably the first thing that pops into my head. I would then tell my family how much I love them and how grateful I am to be part of their family. I would also think about all of the good events that took place in my life.
