Back on my exam sleep schedule

I remember at the end of the summer term, I was starting to get my sleep schedule to the point where I would see the sun rise before I went to bed. I'm starting to get pretty close to doing that again. It's 4AM right now, and to be honest I'm not all that tired. Yesterday I was up til 4 as well. Tonight I slept from about 9PM to 11PM, knowing full well that I'd be screwing my sleep schedule up. I'm sure this will have dire consequences given that I have an exam at 9AM on Monday. It's no good to be falling asleep partway through an exam.

Linguistics went pretty well. I can't really predict exactly how well I did. There were a few questions I left blank, but I seem to have prepared well enough for it. I think I may have lucked out with Graph Theory. I only studied a total of about four hours for it, and when I started writing it, things were looking pretty dismal. There were a bunch of "give an example of a graph on n vertices which blah blah blah". Each was worth about 12% of the exam mark, and it was very much the case that you'd get either no marks or full marks. Either the right solution came to you or it didn't. Luckily, by the end of the exam, they had all come to me. A few of my other proofs were very sketchy, but I don't think they were looking very really high levels of detail. Only one question was left with an incomplete solution, but I'm pretty confident about the rest.

Hugh says that my blog isn't very interesting as it stands; he says I need more opinions or something. I've been trying to keep my opinions to myself lately because it seems like every time I give an opinion, someone proves me wrong right away. And I don't like being wrong. That, and outside of video games I really don't have much else to talk about (sadly enough).

I don't know what I'll be doing for New Years 06-07. I'm half considering having people over to my house (dare I say, a party?), but my parties are usually dry events, and people like ot get shit faced for the new year. What usually winds up happening is that everyone either goes to some private party, or a family party, and that leaves me with a very small invitee list. Don't get me wrong, hanging out with the Jurcik-Stilla connection is fun, but I don't like doing the same thing year after year.

I think I'm gonna go to a shag (bottom definition) on the 29th. I've never been to one, but there's no time like the near future, right? Besides, poor Chanel has to sell 48 more tickets for her friends.

  • 29th? Seems like an odd time to get shagged. Why dont they just wait until new years?

  • Well, the 29th is a Friday, and I know of at least one other shag on new year's, so maybe they took that into account. Beats me.

  • Hey, why don't you just get FFTactics for your PS2? It still works. Heck, I have a copy of the original Tactics, and although my PS2 doesn't play PS1 games anymore, I can still pop it on my PS1.

  • I do already have a original copy of FFT. I would never buy a PSP just for that one game, but I'd like to see some of the new stuff they add to it. They're throwing in some new jobs, cutscenes, and I'll bet they'll give it a new translation. I wonder if they'll rebalance any of the skills or classes...
