Dx I failed my ******** biology test. *screams at self* I couldn't remember a single thing. And I'm a supreme test-taker, it's not like I was having a nervous-breakdown. And it's not even that I'm one of those people that must study for days to do a test right; usually I just wing it. I literally didn't know anything on the exam.
That's what I get for not paying attention in class.
I've been having the hardest time concentrating in school.
And my mom is not making school any easier for me. Whenever I take a practice off from swimming to finish schoolwork, she bitches at me for not being dedicated to the team. And then when some homework goes undone, she yells at me for not trying hard enough in school.
It's really, really hard for me, though. I'm not sleeping well anymore; my sleeping issues are resurfacing, and now it's a constant battle to stay awake in class now.
And even when I do have energy, I can't seem to concentrate anymore. Everything's fuzzy around the edges.
I'm going to stay up tonight, clean my room, organize everything, and then just relax until morning so at least my fall season can start peacefully. I refuse to start a new season on such a bad note. Maybe organization is just what I need.

I'm very familiar with the fuzzy-ness and constant tired-ness. I literally slept through every class but one my Senior year of high school. I couldn't stay awake. And it wasn't that I slept too little at night, either. It seems to have gone now that I'm in college, though. I wonder if it was a reaction to stress?

I'm actually a pretty stress-free person, usually. Only lately have I really been feeling this.
I've always had sleeping issues... It usually doesn't affect my school work, but lately I've been dead at school. Maybe because of the extra strain swimming puts on me. And I've always had a short attention span, but also a good memory. Now everything is blurry, and I can't remember a single thing from classes.
I have no idea what's wrong.

Granted, it's been a few years since i was in school, but surely something can be done? As a chronic insomniac, about the only thing I can suggest is to 'tire yourself out'. Not the best advice out there, but it's about the best I have. If I get four hours a night, I count myself lucky.

The place I should feel accepted the most, is always the place I feel the most secluded.

Recursive Paradox Aino Ailill Sophist Recursive Paradox Someone who is friends with the person who abused and raped me wants a link to my blog... ...you know, where I talk about the abuse and the rape (no names given but I can guarantee you anyone who knew both of us will know who I'm talking about). sad I know someone like this. Either they're cruel and don't care, are too self-absorbed to realize how inappropriate this is, or they're just fantastically dumb. stare Or they're unaware of the dilemma? This. I'd really rather not tell him because I just don't want to deal with this kind of crap. People either take a tact of neutrality or decide that the victim is lying because it's apparently too painful to believe that a close friend could do that. Yanno, never mind how ******** painful it is for me to lose friends because of something someone else did to me. Yes, I'm bitter. I'm sorry.

I feel ignored sometimes. In a sense, it's self-inflicted, because I wore myself so much in high school, I had no urge to do anything productive (besides my school work) in my first year of university. Kind of kills your social life if you're curled up in your room half the time.
So the third reformation is due. ninja

Aino Ailill Aino Ailill In Pre-Calc, we do problems every class which, if we get the points, gives our test grades a boost. If everyone in the class (some 200) gets the problem right, then the points are doubled. Today, the teach. was giving out double points so, if everyone got the question right, the points would be quadrupled. The following was the problem: Solve ln[e^(-3e)] = After giving us this problem, the teach. worked it out for us. Understanding that if log(sub a)(x) = y, then a^y = x ln[e^(-3e)] = x e^x = e^(-3e) When the teach has worked it out this far, and one is solving for x, how can one fail to recognize that x = -3e? I could have had quadruple the points! crying Frickin' idiots! Math major here. I need the practice while I'm out of classes for the time being. Willing to offer assistance smile . I tutored at NSU of LA in Natchitoches and have experience in tutoring Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calc, Calc I & II, and I know a little Stats and Probability, but Stats and Prob is my weak points.

I love Algebra. I hate integration, but love differentiation.
Statistics irritates the hell out of me because of how abused it gets.
Logic is a lot of fun, though.

Let's not forget about fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is fun too but it can get down right confusing when dealing with multiple continuous sets. Lots of useful applications for it too.

Dude I don't care if you don't find some of the women in the clips attractive but the remarks you directed at me, I found quite offensive. I don't find all of them attractive either. I post these clips not because I find all of them grade A, but as a service to that webpage. His clips are hard to find and he doesn't have an archive for them. I have most of them saved, but I need the space so i posted for two fold purpose: As a thank you to that webpage author and to free up hard drive space. I'm sorry you have issues with the fact that I can find something beautiful about the women you deem as "ugly". At least someone is willing to dedicate the time and energy that I have to offering an "technically" unofficial archive (I have the artist's permission to post the clips but it's not exclusively dedicated to his/her clips) of that webpage's clips.

@Reine:
Most of what you'll be doing out of academia won't really resemble tests anyways. Really, even a good portion of later uni academia is paper writing and projects, depending on your major.
