It's always fun to pull all-nighters—especially when there's no reason to. I just got back from the psych h100 final. As usual, I was the first one done; also as usual, I didn't get everything correct. Probably because I stayed up all night with the intention of studying but never actually got around to it. Today's my last day of classes (excluding finals next week) and I'm tired. Very tired. I wonder if the RPAC has espresso yet—they've been serving only decaf espresso for far too long.

I'm glad the quarter is over. I need a break from taking breaks when I should be doing homework or studying. College isn't harder than high school; it's just impossible to avoid distractions here. I mean, seriously, who actually goes to the library to study when it's perfectly appropriate to attempt studying in a residence hall study room where everyone else is laughing at YouTube videos or playing music? Note the many distractions.

But with finals coming up, I need to study. I know almost nothing about Microsoft Access, which will be covered in a significant portion of my CS&E final. I just today almost learned what referential data integrity is. Almost. My only other final is for econ 501.02, and if it's going to be anything like the midterm, then studying won't do me any good. The test is basically designed for your failure; my professor just wants to see who the "outstanding" students are. Unfortunately, there are some. Like, two. Maybe. The rest of us scored low enough to make the average a 40 on that midterm. But it's okay—everything's being graded relatively.

I also have two papers to type up. One of them for psych h100, which I should have turned in today, but asked for an extension because I realized I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing. My other paper is for econ h271, and I haven't even looked at the prompt yet. But that's okay—it's due Monday.

I'm down to three meal swipes for what's left of the quarter. I'm not going to make it. I've been tagging along with suitemates for dinner to steal their excess swipes; some of them have twenty or thirty left. I'm at the severe state of meal rationing; I don't even get my café mocha anymore. Sadness.

I have an informal interview with the current editor of Fisher Ink today, because I'm hoping to take that position for next year. I'm actually looking forward to it, even though I'm horribly awkward in interviews. I think I've gotten much better since coming to college, though. Or so I hope. It'd be nice to be editor. Then again, I would know, as I've just recently been accepted as a section editor for JUROS, our new undergraduate research journal. Mucho thanks to Jennifer for giving me a heads up about the opening!

Time for a 20-minute power nap? I vote yes.
