That is a nice way of putting it. I'm only pessimistic towards myself--I'm optimistic towards everybody else. I kind of feel like a different person when I'm by myself, if you see what I mean...
Well. I've had an average day - teaching, grocery shopping, two hours of this fantabulous new thriller I found in the bookshelves of my mum. Oh, and now I'm tidying up... technically.
Zara, I think I know how you feel. For a couple of months now, I've had the feeling that my life is completely out of control, that I have no influence on anything that happens to me, and that my work is piling up, and no matter what I do, I won't be able to manage it. I know I am a control freak, and I know that I'll manage it somehow, and that it isn't the end of the world if I don't, but still.
To cut a long story short, I've made an appointment with my doctor. She's been trying to send me to the psychiatrist for some time now, and I guess it is time. (No, I'm not crazy. I simply need help.)
The nice part is, I told my best friend about it, and all she said was "Finally!" Humpf.

I missed the bus, but it was okay; my mom took me. I got a bunch of Spanish piled on me, even though exams are Thursday and we should review rather than learn new material, if you ask me. I went to the eye doctor for a contact check-up because last time I went I got new contacts. Then I had a band concert, which I just got home from, and we sucked a little bit, but not too bad. That's it. Now I think I'll eat a doughnut and try to relax.

Hopefully, your stress goes down a bit soon; your college applications are done so that's a load off, right?
I guess. You are an optimist, right? I've usually taken a pessimistic attitude towards my life, and it seems to spare me from disappointment. Since my expectations are low, I'm not disappointed if I do badly--just extremely excited if I do well.
Truthfully, I don't know if I'm an optimist or a pessimist. I try to be optimistic for others.

Phantom's another one of my bad points; I've only seen the movie!
From what you said of the musical, though, I would love to see it that way.
