Ramble Ramble Ramble (sung to the Hungry Hippoes song)

Ahh so I'm back at school for another term of papers, exams and readings. I've decided NOT to procrastinate and so I've been tryign to be as organized as possible. I have a big calendar that I made on my wall (its my monthly elementary school art class fix), have stuck important things on the shelves above my desk, my textbooks are in a specific place and my clothes are in the closet - rather than on the chair i'm currently sitting on. I have a ton of dishes in my room though - leftover from my tea (remember - I'm an addict), mini-banana bread, grapefruit juice and veggies and dip. Funny - usually its the food that's leftover, not the dishes.

Anyway so is there any point to this post? Not really. Having slept at two and woken up at two for the past three weeks, Ive been finding it multo difficulo (is that even a word?) to sleep at my self-professed bedtime (11pm - ya right eh?). I have to be in class in 9 hours - how horrible is that? I miss my 1pm starts - or the 4pm ones I had back in 2nd year. Sigh.

I'm taking 6 courses right now, am on 2 execs, 1 editorial board, a research intern, have a massive paper and a policy paper due on Monday. Does anyone think I'm overstretching myself a bit here? I've been debating whether or not to drop one of my courses - I really like all of them so far - but I think I'll have to drop my polisci seminar. It's on comparative politics of the Middle East so it should be amazingly interesting, but the amount of readings that there are for the course, plus the fact that I want to do well in it, and given the stuff i already have - I think I'll have to drop it. It's either that or my genetics for arts students course (I wanted to be a geneticist when I was younger) and which idiot would drop a course during which the prof said that it was possible for everyone to get an 'A' and actually meant it?? Not me...

12.18 - hmm, maybe I should try and get some sleep, considering how early I need to wake up. K. I think i'll stop it there and go brush my teeth. If i cant sleep, i'll count sheep or maybe read or do some sudoku...lol (nerd alert..yes)

That's it for now - and if you don't know the rest - go back and check...

ps- if you dont know the Hungry Hippoes song, shame on you - yes, you too Tibz...
