Anyway, I have a TON of work to do for tomorrow, in classes that I'm not doing particularly well in to begin with. In statics, I have a quiz to study for (counts for roughly an eighth of my grade), when I haven't been to class for most of the section (moments of inertia). In materials, though, is where I'm EXTRA boned. Not only do I have a huge individual lab report to do nearly all of, which counts for an unspecified but sizable chunk of my final grade, but I also forgot to go to lab yesterday, because we haven't met in weeks for one reason or another. Lastly, I have a problem set to do for calculus, which I really should do, because I've missed a bunch of them. The worst part is, I went to bed early last night to catch up on the sleep I've lost over the new Zelda game, and I woke up six hours later and couldn't get back to sleep. So this is all only going to get harder as the day goes on. Now I have to do the prelab and see if I can do the lab with the next section, which meets in a little under 2 hours.
EDIT: and who the hell did Jiff used to be? Stop changing your names, people. Seriously.

Spotted that. I don't think I'm gonna fail anything, but this semester has been pretty miserable. I'm really, really ready for winter break.

I have a test which I'm leaving for in about 20 minutes and I've only learned (I use the word learned very loosely) about half the material for it.

If you wanna see who someone is, quote them. It lists the name they have as their login name.

I have managed to keep ontop of my work load and am excelling academically.
Tomorrow, after a day containing three hours of mathematics, two hours of physics, and an hour of chemistry, I am going home to eat, shave, and get changed before picking up my girlfriend, and turning up to a good friends' 18th birthday party, whose house I will be crashing at.
With my girlfriend.
In the same bed.
Sorry to rub it in your face a little

. Good luck with the work! Caffeine and sleep deprivation are good so long as it isn't the night before the exam!

UPDATE: I didn't study because all I have to learn the material from is the textbook, and I didn't do my lab because I seem to have lost the lab handout. Without that, the most I could get on the lab would be about a 10, which is a whole whopping point of my course grade. Instead, I stayed up till five hoping my friend would come back, see the note on his door, and loan me his handout. So yeah, unless I pull some obscene miracle on the oral exam and the final, I'm prolly gonna fail this course. I'll be talking to my prof about it today.

UPDATE TWO: I just handed in a blank statics quiz because I misunderstood what we were allowed to bring with us for reference. I was under the impression that we were allowed to use these laminated study guide things the bookstore has. Well, I showed up at the bookstore about 10 minutes before the quiz, and it seems I made the whole thing up. They didn't even have those guides for statics. To put this in perspective, in statics our grade is based on five quizzes, the final, homework, and attendance. So a quiz is worth less than an exam in most other classes, but not by much.
In short, ZeroX and I may be in the same boat. =\
Right now I'm in the ME computer lab, waiting to talk to my materials prof about my grade, to see if there's any hope of passing.

Once I accidentally wandered into the wrong classroom and took an exam on Electrical Engineering instead of Astronomy, that was the hardest fucking test I've ever taken.

Wait, wait, how did you manage to get past the front page and not, like, leave?

MORE UPDATES: now I have until 5 PM to email the lab in with a big point reduction, like 30 or 40 points. I just woke up after going to bed at about 6PM yesterday. I haven't eaten since yesterday's breakfast, which was meager. Too bad nothing is fucking open now >_<

FINAL UPDATE: the data analysis was kicking my ass, and I hadn't really finished it by 330. There were just a few things that weren't making sense, and I was having incredibly difficulty focusing. I decided to just send in what I had done, cause pounding away at it for another hour and a half wouldn't have gotten me much further.

Can't say I've got any crazy workloads like you've guys but:
I wanted to participate in that National Novel writing month thing for November, but I forgot about it until the 15 or so, then I decided I do the challenge starting in December but I did a lot of shit with my friends yesterday, and I was too dead tired today to do much, so now tomorrow I'm gonna have to write about 500 words an hour for about 4 or 5 hours to catch up.
