Thanks secretgarden...everything that can be shifted has been...I am out of time on my masters defense--it is now or never--I have been putting off my papers to study for my defense--I live alone and need my car for transportation.

But, yes, right now, at this moment, the only thing I can really do is study. So that is the only thing I am going to focus on...just study. Nothing else matters at the moment because I can't do anythign about it.
