Does exercise relieve work related stress.... ?

.... I'm about to find out. I had such a HORRIBLE day at school today and still feel royally pissed about it. Shall we make a list of all the craziness...?
  • My schedule is completely crazy on Saturdays; I hardly had any time to drink my coffee or eat lunch today.
  • The whole desk rearrangement predicament; they're treating us as if we're inside a coop and are happily/readily able to accept as many chickens as they could stuff together.
  • The Nooras' problem...
  • Since my regular driver permanently decided to ditch my ride home because of the new school timings, me and Jafooly had to wait outside for 25 min in the scorching Jeddah heat.
  • The Assisticant with all her 'advice' on exactly what I should and should not do while correcting homework. And that's not the end of it.... I'll probably have to deal with number one about all my 'mistakes' and 'inefficiencies' tomorrow.
  • One of my mum's acquaintances died today.
I am mentally drained and physically exhausted. I really hope I can work out for at least 10 minutes today, Insha'Allah.

  2. Okay... I just finished exercising, and you can say I feel a teensy bit better (probably because I'm so freakin' tired out).

    Yeah, I'm also having a can of Pepsi right now which SO TOTALLY cancelled out my exercise. But I NEEDED the Pepsi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. Oh mannn Naushy...

    Yeah, today was a bit of a shitty day...im sorry to hear about your mom's friend though :(

    1. Yeah, I'm feelin the craziness of the schedule as well...but it's the price we pay unfortunately for getting paid a bit more :(

    2. The desk...I know I don't say much about it, but I know they treat us like shit in that room...sorry to say this, but the management are assholes...if i start bitchin about what all they should be doin for us, it will never end, so I try to ignore all of it unless it's something that'll make me totally blow...not bein able to pass and buggin the teachers everytime, mehh..it sucks but I would rather stay in our room than the big one...I fear that if we fuss too much about our room, they may say, well you know, fine..you all move out and give that room to the assissticants...ya know what I mean?

    3. The Nooras problem..yeah, I feel helpless about it as well, but there's not much that we can do about it except be there for her...

    4. Pshhh you and jafooly shoulda come with me...next time he keeps you waitin, just tell me and I can drop you, don't worry about it

    5. The assissticant...that's fked up...I know that twice a month afaaf always does check my books to make sure my corrections are up to date and that im doin the usual crap like makin em put the date, sign my name, etc., but she doesn't force it down my throat or anything...just points it out and thats it...so I dont know why they're doing this...could be worse tho, she could be makin you guys make lesson plans and the assissticant would check em for you... : /

    6. I'm sorry to hear about your mom's friend. I hope she's doing ok.

    7. SUPER proud of you that you exercised even tho the day sucked...It's motivated me to do the same :)

    8. If you need extra cheerin up, ask Jafooly to show you the talking hindus :))
