STUPID, DUMB, AND HYPHY

Feb 02, 2006 23:57

I'm not as smart as I used to be.

I sorta started realizing this gradually and I guess it just hit me recently.  I know it may sound trivial, but let's hope it stays that way and that it doesn't progress into something worse.

Before, I was able to retain a lot more information, but recently I've been forgotting little things like the stages of cellular respiration or the difference between DNA transcription and translation.  I was also a lot wittier (at least, in my opinion).  Now, I stumble over my words a lot.  I often find myself searching for that thing, you know, it's on the tip of my tongue, I swear, just give me a minute, but the more I try to remember it, the less I actually know what I'm trying to think about.

I even end sentences in prepositions.

Maybe it's the lack of sleep.  I don't even get to sleep in on weekends because I usually have work or class.  Maybe it's the fact that I'm a senior and I'm slacking off in general.  Or maybe I've just spread myself too thin this year and I need some time to myself. 
Schoolrehearsalsworkvolunteerhomework, I just need to squeeze a little rest in there.

Yeah, that'd be nice.  "Rest" ...

Fishing for compliments?  Not really.  Complaining?  You bet.
