where you at, boy? somewhere rappin'?



Official countdown to a week-long break that will unfortunately end far too soon: 2 days



Pops, if you've found this site, cool. But know that what's here is not always great.

Background: On Sunday, I got sick and was throwing up. I didn't get to study the amount of time I wanted to for my Monday final. I should've told me professor but I figured she wouldn't believe me ("How convenient, a sickness the night before a final," is what she would say). I get home after the final, not feeling great about my performance as well as my general health. I need to study. I have another final on Tuesday. I was up studying late Monday night for this final, as I usually do. I thought I set my alarm clock to 5am, so I could fit in some more studying in the morning. How do I wake up? The gardner's lawn mower is rattling the windows. What time do I wake up? 10am. What time do I get to school? 10:20am. Why so quick? Final was at 9:10am. Never have I done this before. Hopefully, never will it happen again.



I was reading Rich's latest on his website (nice new design) and have discovered that I am not the only one with insomnia. I, too, have been sleeping around 4am-ish, and I really don't know why. Unfortunately, sometimes when I want to sleep earlier, it's not possible. For example, the other night, I thought I'd be able to get some sleeping done by going to bed at 1am. So I laid myself down. I seriously could not get to sleep. I'd close my eyes but couldn't do it. I'd look at the clock and realize time moving, however slowly. Next thing I know, it's 4:30am. Weak. And then I fall asleep, only to wake up again at 8am.



I have a second job interview tomorrow (actually today, now - Wednesday). It's actually a followup. Last week I was interviewed at Sun Microsystems, Inc, and so the lady who interviewed me wanted me to go in for another interview with the rest of her crew. I hope I get the job. It seems like a really cool place and the job seems like a cool one. I hope I get the job. Finding a new internship has been pretty tough.
