I woke up agitated today and anxious because last night I slept but could only think about what's awaiting me this long week of exams and essays. I procrastinated too much and for too long and the consequences will definitely catch up to me. Right as we speak, my actions and my thoughts are faster than usual to accommodate for all the lost time (I am rapidly typing this).
I wasn't planning on writing an entry, but I noticed today was World AIDS Day. I feel that I need to touch upon how AIDS has been affecting our world today. If you live in the United States, you may know someone who has AIDS or HIV or you may not even believe that AIDS exist but know that in third world countries, like Haiti and Africa, AIDS is a major dilemma for its population. Since there's no vaccines, people die daily due to lack of education and medical help and, even with help and vaccines, they cannot handle the medicine because they don't have the food for strength to fully utilize the medicine.
