Emo
That's how I feel right now - just absolutely drained, emotionally and mentally and physically exhausted, so tired that I feel restless rather than sleepy. My whole body seems to ache, I feel hungry but have no appetite, my brain seems to be going tick-tick-tick but not focusing on anything.
A lot of this is probably to do with (a) having had an exam on Friday just gone and (b) having had a job interview today. So I've spent the last few weeks furiously cramming discourse analysis and then the last weekend reading books called things like Great answers to tough interview questions and talking to myself like this: "Well, my greatest weakness is probably that I work too hard".
And then I didn't get the job anyway, so meh.
Also, I had been getting through all this by thinking about the month off studying I was due. I assumed that this would happen as I got a month off between my first module and the module I just finished. I had planned to use my spare time in this month off to make some clothes, customise some t-shirts, finish a bag with a Sirius/Remus design on it that's been on my shelves waiting to be finished for ages, make a lampshade shaped like a Super Mario question mark block, and start work on a kitschy shrine thing, a 25th anniversary gift for my parents. But of course, no, I was wrong and it turns out my next module starts this week. So instead of doing all the above, I get to... read a bunch of stuff about ethnography.
My brain hurts. Ugh.
