I AM DONE WITH MY PAPER. OH GOD. It actually did not take as long as I expected, but that's not saying much, since I was picturing myself being up until 5 AM, still writing it, and getting like 2 hours of sleep. I'm actually really proud with parts of it and the overall conclusion I come to, but... the execution is pretty crappy. I don't actually know that it would be much better even if I did spend more than a day on it, though. Oh well.
Ugh, I've felt kind of nauseous for the past few days, though. Like... I stopped drinking soda when I came here (I used to drink at least one a day, and I'm pretty sure I developed tolerance to caffeine, since if I didn't have any, I'd get a headache), and I mean... occasionally I'll have a Pepsi (like once a month) if I'm particularly tired. I don't drink just plain coffee because I don't like the taste, so I've basically been off caffeine for months. Anyways, I spent basically since Monday staying up to 1-2 AM and waking up at 7 AM, and ok, I need more sleep than that. So I basically had coffee (with milk and a bunch of sugar so I could stand the taste - which, after having so much, I don't mind as much anymore) at every meal after not having more than just a little for so long and... that had weird effects on my body. I've felt all nauseous, as a I mentioned, and yesterday I was just... totally strung-out on caffeine. It was pretty amazing how much of an effect it had, especially since I had been tolerant to caffeine for so long so it hadn't affected me that in... forever. So, anyways, I might end up dying of caffeinism (not really. You need like 800 cups of caffeine in a very brief amount of time, and I don't think I've had that much coffee in my life, let alone this week). But I haven't had any since breakfast today since after this morning I didn't need to be awake anymore, and... now I feel like passing out. ugh. Stupid getting only 5 hours a sleep for several days in a row.
Anyways, dilemma for tonight: stay up until midnight watching The Office and 30 Rock (I don't have a TV, I have a Slingbox connected on my computer to my TV/DVR player back at home, but... that's in PST rather than whatever I'm in here (Central? I don't know, it's 2 hours later) so all my shows end up being later, which sucks) or go to sleep early to try to make up for getting no sleep the past few days? I'm not sure how likely it is that I'll be able to stay awake that long. We'll see, I guess.
My English professor was mentioning how she was going to a conference this weekend in Long Beach and I was like "...Long Beach? California?" and she was all "Yes!" and I was like "I LIVE NEAR THERE." Ugh. Jealous. But I will be back there in two weeks at least.
(I promised no more talking about school stuff in my last post but... oops? Next post will totally be school-free. Probably. And then I'll go back to bitching about school for the next week and a half.)
