January sucks? I concur...
It's hard to keep going when you've spent every bit of energy thinking hard, your whole body physically hurts from too much caffeine, you are tired but can't sleep because there's still stuff to do, and well, because you can't. Every goal that might render things ok again is impossible, every practical goal just isn't quite enough as you realise that once again that things have been simply left too late. You still have to sort it out. You have to consciously force yourself to make sure that productivity doesn't drop as the spaced out feeling sets in.
My life since Monday has consisted of working until I can't think any more, and then sleeping just enough to recover. I have been outside once- to the 24 hour shop round the corner. Yet I'm so proud of myself, because I know that just like all the other times, I'm going to manage to make myself do this. And because I have kept going, and because I have managed impossible tasks already. And because there aren't many people who can turn learn engineering classes in such a small timeframe.
