An unsound Method of Studying
Feb. 27th, 2007 06:16 amFor the past few nights I've been experiencing a kind of insomnia which wakes me up every other hour. Every time I'm awake, I'm fairly alert, intellectually. Most of the rest of me is asleep, except physically. Usually, I think myself physically tired enough that getting up isn't worth it, but tonight I decided that since I was so tired at 9.30, I should just go to bed and wake up early to prepare for my exam.
I woke up at 12am. I managed to prepare for that first one and was done by 1am. So I went back to bed.
Woke up again at 3am. Finished preparation at 4am.
Now it's 6am and I'm doing the same thing for this last essay and hopefully I'll be done by 7am, and my alarm rings at 9am.
Why don't you just wake up in the morning to do it? you may ask. Simply speaking, while previously I've had the pleasure of working in the sunshine before, these days, once the sun is up, my brain just shuts off. It may or may not turn back on. Either way, I better get my work under control so I can get back to setting myself into a good routine once more. I ruined myself by slacking off last week, and once I slack, it's hard to get back. I'm finding myself depressed without a proper routine.
The essay on Intellect is done. Time to do the exam and put in my best, which won't be of the same caliber as it should be this time.
