Sleep deprivation seems to be a chronic problem afflicting nearly all
higher learning institutions. I have slowly become aware that most
students desperately want more sleep, but then foolishly deprive
themselves of it. I myself have struggled with the issue. It is a tough
world out there when you are prone to fall asleep 10 minutes into a
crucial lecture. I fear there is no easy answer to this problem, save
caffeine and electroshock therapy.
I took my chemistry midterm today, and I actually think I may have
passed it. Unbelievably, I may have actually passed the class average.
This one certainly went better than the last, which I think the prof
had planned as a "shock and awe" demonstration. She shocked me right
into a stupor, and hence, never got around to the awe state...
Whatever. As long as I pass my classes, I guess I am satisfied.
My aunt is coming up on Friday, which is good news for me. I could use
a fern, which is difficult to lug around on a bus/train. I am also
looking forward to seeing family and going out for real food for once.
Hopefully I will be able to get most of my biology lab report done
tomorrow and my stats homework as well, but somehow I doubt it. I am
supposed to Safewalk from 5 to 8 PM, and so that leaves me with
precious little time to tackle difficult problems. I need to at least
finish my prelab and stats crap. Not only do I have Safewalk, I have a
meeting with a business guy from College Pro, to see if a little
training and a business plan (entrepreneurship) could increase my wages
next summer by a bit. I am hoping to avoid as much much loans as I can.
Scholarships seem to be out of the question, so...
So here we are again at the end of the night. I complain about lack of
sleep and I am posting this as 12:30 AM. Time to say buonos noches.
