Just some random notes today.

Firstly, if you've tried to mail me today I didn't get it because my hotmail account was exceeding the size limit. I've emptied it, so there should be no more problem there. What pushed me over was some stuff lying about in the sent folder, I always forget that what I send will actually stay there for awhile.

I really need to wind down and sleep more. Only slept for about five hours last night and now it's already past midnight again. I didn't really make anything better by going to Steven's good bye party tonight, not that I didn't have fun, I did. It's just that it's got me feeling twice as useless as I did before. The only way I'll be able to relax is if I study enough that I feel confident about the midterm next week, and I seriously doubt that there's enough time before the exam for that to happen.

It's already a little past midnight and I feel wound up and not at all tired. But I need to get up for the geophysics lecture tomorrow morning, the first one in four or five weeks. At least after I get past cell biology and send part of my little brother's graduation present home I'll have some time to work on vocabulary before the seminar in my lab... and if I get bored enough I'll probably sit and study discreetly during the seminar too. It somehow seems like I've reached equilibrium though, the only way I'll be able to raise the level of my Japanese is to get a higher input to balance the increasing rate at which I'm forgetting stuff. So, more studying is required.

Writing posts to your blog while brushing your teeth is not a very good idea.
