Morning...

It is so weird to be wide awake at 3am. I should not have taken that nap at 8. Well, logically I shouldn't have, but in reality it's probably a really freaking good thing because 1) I am awake now, and capable of doing my homework and 2) I actually got six hours of sleep already, so I'm set for the day, as long as I don't like, sleep through my physics review session at 5 later today. And, most of all, it's a verily good thing I didn't try my compsci homework while I was tired and grumpy because it turns out between the lab Mac and my poor little computer here DrScheme somehow corrupted my homework into gibberish so I've got to write it all over again. Luckily it's taken me only an hour and a half to get to where I was before, and this time the program actually works like it's supposed to, instead of turning things green and pink like it used to. If I had realized that this happened earlier, I probably would have started burning things, but instead now it's a challenge and I really don't mind. Hehehe. Screwing your sleep schedule up beyond recognition does wonders for optimism, for some reason. Oh, and there is like zero chance anyone's going to come bother me while I'm trying to do this. Heck, no one's even online right now. Yaaay ridiculous-o'clock!

The Obligatory Doing-Homework Entry

Mnrr... it's just as hard to do homework at 5 in the morning as it is at ten in the evening... I won't feel so bad about not finishing this, since I don't imagine many other people will, but still... it isn't that hard, it's just tedious work, and the assignment's sort of ambiguous. It's taken me at least fifteen minutes to guess what on earth they want from these functions, and even now I'm not sure if I've interpreted it right. What's with the UofC and ambiguous questions? And this isn't even a humanities class, darnit. Ah well, I've still got four hours before I actually have to leave for class. I can't imagine this taking me four more hours... but it just might. There really isn't much for me to distract myself with right now though, so chances are I'll actually get it mostly done. My biggest distraction was my half-hour stint into getting the complete versions of all the FMA openings and endings to work.. that was an adventure. But yay they are pretty. Woo! Now, if only audio didn't suck on Windows Media Player. Yeesh.

I'm not sure if this giant list of nothing-but-jpop/rock is really helping me program... it probably isn't good for my mind to process things in English, schemeish, and Japanese at the same time. Oh well... not like I'm not already insane as it is. If my poor computer can deal with processing all these silly pictures, I can deal with my own current taste in music, right? As a sidenote... I am so glad I have a decent computer. If I was trying to run this crap on one of those evil celeron-type laptop processors, I'd probably still be waiting for it to finish counting all the pixels in the images.

DrScheme, if you crash before this is done, I'll have you know that I know your creator, and will find a way to disassemble you bit by bit in whatever way is most painful for a scheme interpretation program. This freaking thing is like HAL, I swear.

Urrrgh!

There should be a 7-hour limit on homework, at which point you should be allowed to give up and just turn it in. I am so lost and confused and just apathetic about this assignment. Yes, it's hard to care about it and be apathetic at the same time, but I figure after I spent an hour and a half in the lab making little to no progress, then another hour and a half redoing my work, then another four staring at this crap, I should be entitled to a break. I should be allowed to just push it aside, say "screw it" and go take a shower, put on some clean clothes, and pretend the whole thing never happened. But nooo, I can't do that. Even though homework is only 10% of our grade, I'm afraid that this assignment is a large part of that because it's just so freaking huge. Though, I imagine most people got to part three or four while they were still in lab, whereas I was still on part one, and it was still wrong when I left. Freaking compsci. Freaking Puritans. Freaking Ikea.

Still... I know I'm going to sit here at least until my roomie gets up, because I can't take a shower until she's out of bed, anyway. Arrrgh.

REVIVED!

Err... well.. not really. But I'm alive! It is 8:30 and I am alive! And I haven't napped today for more than half an hour... which means at this point I have been awake since 2, for a grand total of... 18 hours! Two more, and then I'm off to bed, with my sleep schedule reasonably intact. Wee! Of course, at this point in the evening my mind is a little off... and I'm sort of going mad for lack of something to do. I figure as long as I can keep myself occupied until nine though, I can go take a shower and then read Aristotle until I fall asleep. Which would be productive as well as sleep-inducing. Because by now I'm sort of afraid I'm past the point where I'm going to fall asleep easily. That point was around five this afternoon, when I was supposed to go to my Physics review session. I managed to wake myself up, but I knew if I had to sit still I'd never stay awake, so going would've been sort of useless.

I think I'll sit here and watch this icon for another ten minutes...

I made it through the day! I totally win!
