5.Coping with Stress in College 9='a9\((mH
FdrH,
College life can be very stressful. Sometimes parents, faculty and others tend to idealize their college experience and remember it as that idyllic time when they had few worries or responsibilities. To students currently attending college, however, the process is often stressful and frustrating. The competition for grades, the need to perform, relationships, career choice, and many other aspects of the college environment cause stress. 34k}7 k~n
But before condemning stress outright, we need to understand that stress is only harmful when it is excessive. Much of the stress that we all experience is helpful and stimulating. The challenges of life tend to be stressful and an attempt to avoid stress completely would lead to a rather boring existence. The problem comes when you experience too much stress. C*O648yz[
There are four primary sources of stress: the environment, (noise, pollution, traffic, crowding, and the weather), physiology, (illness, injuries, hormonal fluctuations, and inadequate sleep or nutrition), students’ thoughts (negative self-talk, catastrophizing, and perfectionism), and social stressors (financial problems, work demands, social events, and losing a loved one). Symptoms of stress appear in many forms. Some symptoms only impact the person who is directly experiencing stress, while other symptoms may have an impact on our relationships with others. D|zlC,J,
Although some stress reactions are part of deeper and more serious emotional problems, many are not, and can be handled with relatively simple counseling and stress-management techniques. Developing a balanced lifestyle, gaining perspective by discussing problems with other students or tutors, specifying relaxation techniques, and clarifying your values and cultivating a sense of life meaning can help you relieve your stress in college. 6 <&jY

6.Sports u L`6}0
\1k(4MWd
From the earliest times, people have held sports competitions. The athletic few compete on the field while the rest of us participate from the safety of our seats. Today sports are certainly as popular as ever, and because of radio and television, we can now compete from a distance. C?I vXPlV
In fact, for important competitions, the whole world becomes one big stadium.
+n#kpi'T
It is hard to say why humans like organized games. The reasons that we enjoy sports probably differ from person to person. Whether little kids are kicking a ball around a city playground, or million-dollar-a-year athletes are playing in a modern stadium, the excitement of competition, motion, discipline, and beauty are in the air. Who doesn’t stop to watch a ball game in the street or a swimmer in a pool? What parents are not proud to see their children carried off the field by thankful fans? For the players, the joys of sportsmanship can include punishing self-discipline and the friendship of teammates. 'FVh/};Y.D
Then there is special thrill that comes only to a lucky few. It is the thrill that comes from hearing thousand voices shout your name. But personal victory is only one kind of victory. In every game someone must lose, but mankind wins every time an athletic record is broken. It is this aspect of sports that brings people together. :Bk!Y
K
Even in defeat, no one says to an athlete, “So what?” You say, “Good try!” And when your pride gets hurt and your muscles are sore, you say to yourself, “That’s part of the game. I’ll win next time!”
