[quote=Anonymous]It never fails that the week before or of the last week of school or the days before I am set to fly out of the country I have a houseguest request. In my culture, the room is always open unless there are other guests. It can be so stressful when your mind is being pulled in other directions and you cannot enjoy anything and the guests rarely understand how much demand they place on you from being quiet at times you need to be loud or running in and out or not available to have dinners. They think they are low maintenance but you are in a time when the few moments you have free are simply not spoken for yet or needed to decompress. When it rains it pours, but from experience, just let it ride, even if they are all complaints about your failing to provide for them in one way or another. Snapping back will feel great in the moment but can make things sour, if you are just over them snapping can provide the benefit of them no longer visiting too. Its your call but you are almost done with them, try not to focus and be genuine when responding with reminders of your busy schedule, not accusations of their imposing. [/quote]
