Sleepless night

I had a sleepless night. Thoughts, music, sounds, and visual images just kept crossing my mind. Or I should say clouds of them? Because I cannot seem to crystalize them. Thoughts on students' progress, their future career hardships, attitudes of freshman class, Tchaikovsky Trio melodic lines, Peter, his students, our schedule, Totoro, Tiger, ...

I tried to stop the train of thoughts, but it was at a point that it was easier to just let them float across my mind than stopping them. Oh, how am I going to get through the day with no sleep?

I sent out a few important emails. I felt the need to clarify some requirements and roles my students and I play here in school.

Oh, I only wish I can just be strong and confront when I need to. Yes, Peter is correct, if I don't do so, it would only hurt people I care and myself. Do problems have to turn really ugly before they can be solved?
