Thanks! You can read my long rant of what causing the stress in reply to humfrz
Thanks, I might take up on the offer. This isn't nothing embargo, so I'll rant it off here.
So recently my mother went back to Japan, due to grandfather wasn't doing so hot. When she came back, she told me grandfather requested several things from me.
1. Get married this yr. Not sure ive posted this news, but back in May I got engaged. We were planning to getting married next yr fall (like Sept)... but now that idea is thrown out of window. Yes, it's just grandfather's "wish" & don't have much right to say... but I'm Asian & he's a head of house/family (on my mother side) & if he say so, 99% gotta do it. Good part to this is cuz it's his idea, so he'll help pay for the wedding.
2. Moving out. My deal at current place is over & need to move out in July. So I was looking into some single room to live minimal to save up for wedding... but cuz of #1, that plan doesn't work, so now I'm looking for both of us to live.
3. Debt frees. This is a good news for me. To help me trying to get a house/townhouse, grandfather paid off my auto loan plus cc debt. But cuz he paid those off, I have to get married this yr.
If you're wondering what my fiancé thinks of getting married this yr, she's fine w it... just figure out wedding, moving & other stuff stressing her out too. Specially her side of family want to have a big enough reception to eat, drink & have a good time, which I'm not against.
Other stress stuff I've been working.
4. 86EXPO. Event is Aug 19th... so right now is a crunch time. Good thing I have a 4 other event staffs to help me out, but still anxiety kills me to make sure event is successful. Highly doubt Hachi gonna kill me, but don't wanna disappoint him.
5. Work project. Recently, I got assigned to big project at work, which I'm happy that I became project leader... but they brought several "not smart" staff & making things 3 time more work for me. Sadly, 1 could be replaced (last Fri thank god...) & other 2 can't be replaced til later Aug.
6. Dumbfck friend. Not sure I wanna call him a "friend"... let's say guy I used to know. I guess he did something bad or in massive debt and is on the run. Several collection agents & cops have been calling asking for him. I haven't seen him for more than 8 yrs, but he have used my name as a reference without my permission, so they're bugging the crap out of me. Most of them stop calling me... but it was over few wks of nightmare.
So this is why I'm over stressed. I'm sure you have been in worse spot than me. Just want to rant it off. Sorry
Btw when you coming to Utah?

Wow that's a lot going on. Very stressful for sure. And even the good stuff, there is good stress and bad stress but it is all stress believe it or not the good parts of it only add to your stress level. I can't do much about your life, although you seem to be handling it appropriately anyway, but my advice would be just to make small victories where you can. Whenever I take on something(s) overwhelming I just figure out which parts I can solve easily and just do it. Even if it's small bits at a time it adds up eventually and soon you will look back and just shrug your shoulders at how much you have accomplished. Don't forget too that each little thing you fix takes something off your plate which allows you more time and energy to attack what is left and it adds up exponentially.
