Spring flowers make it hard to concentrate

I am an impatient person. I can't really remember a time when I wasn't impatient. I'm so impatient that I hate cooking meals that take a long time, if I'm not able to be working on something else while I'm doing it. I love how my hair looks when it's been straightened, but hate taking the hour-plus to complete it. I get angry when I have to wait in lines that don't need to be that long.

This is something that I absolutely have to deal with before re-entering the workforce into a huge, bureaucratic corporation. There's definitely something to be said for just biting my tongue, and working out a lot, but I feel like I will always be frustrated and stressed out. I'm not sure how to deal with this but am taking opinions.

I think part of my issue now is that I'm not making any money. So if my time is being wasted in class, I'm actually paying to have my time wasted. If it was the other way around I'd feel a little better about the whole thing. I really need to just become the happy person I was before I got stressed out with school. I'm looking forward to having a job, where walls and deadlines exist in a different way than they do in school.

In my current life, there is always something I could be reading, because there's just no way to read it all. Due to this, I always feel like I'm behind. Thankfully, in my final semester, I've come to a happy place about just not doing everything. I am still learning, just not spending hours each day reading things I don't care to read. Unfortunately, I know I'm not always going to love every part of my job, but I'm still going to need to do it. I've put up with it before, so I'm confident I can do it, as long as I love other parts of my job.

Oh the joys of adulthood. Every day you learn your flaws, learn to deal with them, or peril.
