Well?

(Yes, this thread is impossibly bad. Unfortunately, today has broken my brain, including all inhibitions regarding making worthwhile posts.)

I'm up because I am working for school. After being tired all day (only had three hours of sleep last night), I'm now not feeling tired anymore at all. Which bugs me of course, since that means I again won't get much sleep tonight. Hooray. =/

Because ive just finished a 10 page report thats in for tomorrow.Ten pages of what, exactly? Or don't I want to know?

After being tired all day (only had three hours of sleep last night), I'm now not feeling tired anymore at all. [...] [T]hat means I again won't get much sleep tonight.A vicious circle I know all too well. Although I've only myself to blame.

And the moral of this thread? If you plan on doing work on a computer, you'll lose a lot less sleep if you use a machine sans internet connection.

It also has another moral: don't create crappy topics in the early AMs, as you'll only want someone to delete them a few minutes later.

The ol' size-16-font routine, eh?

Just keep reading through it. Even Lucozade has its limits.

It's not late now, but I've been talking to a girl for almost 4 hours and so I'm postponing a shitload of homework. I'm gonna pull a late night for sure. And yesterday and went to sleep after 2AM thanks to a double-shot espresso that kept me up.

About to shut down and fix a client's computer. They claim to have a virus. Which is really surprising seeing as they spend all day on the 'net, without any form of protection.

Well right now its only 15:41 so Im not sleeping for a good while yet. I can guarantee however that I will be awake between the hours of 01:00 and 05:00. Good old insomnia. Tips to beat it, dont drink 12 cups of coffee, dont down 4 cans of red bull as fast as possible and dont turn on the computer. I can feel my soul slipping away at times...

Probably not the only but in the minority maybe. I have been an on again off again insomniac for the past 3 years and now I cant be bothered to deal with it. Even right now, im on my 5th beer and Im full of energy, more than I had during the day. This is true even with out beer. Oh while I'm talking about it, beer and alcohol usually helps sleep.

I slept earlier today when I got in from college, that was from 5pm round to 11pm. So I obviously can't get to sleep, so at the moment I'm sitting around playing in Photoshop (hence new sig).

Also got work tomorrow, so I best get a little sleep at some point.

Going through Uni courses at the moment, and have been all day, weighing each one up and talking to some contacts from CGtalk about them.

Teesside has now moved up my imaginary chart of what's a decent uni.

It's all so worrying, and UCAs forms have got to be in soon and I'm also wondering if I'll be able to walk out of uni and into a http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y205/passivereactions/deal.gif straight away.

I really should be in bed, having just got home from lots of flights and waiting in airports and a long drive home. But I've got a load of goodies that had come through the post for me, so I'm just having a quick look at those before I get some much needed sleep.

A dongle, an SD card reader, USB joypad for playing MK64 online (don't download ROMs people!!), a USB splitter thing, King Kong demo that I hadn't expected to get, latest issue of EDGE that arrived while I was in the US... and I think that is mostly it.

Bowser57
24-11-2005, 06:20 PM
Yep as far as I know the postman left them all for me. The King Kong demo I filled in some form on a website, the USB stuff I ordered from Amazon.co.uk (inc free super saver delivery!) and the dongle was from my old friends at Gameplay. Oh, and I subscribe to EDGE magazine.

What was so funny about that was the added smile on the end............it makes it seem like asthma is a good thing nowdays. :wink:

But tees will most likely end up on my UCAs form, I'm just worried about all the travelling, as I'm based very much south of the country.
