Come on man; when I was in your shoes 8 months ago, what I did
was to STOP counting down or think about that ORD date..Seriously,
the more you think about the number of days, the more anxious and
sian you will feel. So just stop thinking about it; just take
things one at a time, one day at a time..look forward to weekends,
and during book-in time, look forward to seeing your friends and
having a good time.. Only start counting when you're about to clear
off and leave..then you'll feel better!
