Didn't manage to sleep at all the last night/morning. That would be 5ish hours of lying in bed, most of the time aware that I'm not able to get myself to fall asleep. I think I've mostly traced the problem, that being thinking too much while I'm lying in bed. Well, not that I can help it.. my mind doesn't like being idle for some reason. And everytime I tell myself to shut up, I eventually manage to wander onto some other topic anyway. The mind is a hard thing to train, especially during sleep hours. =(
It seems the less sleepy I look in the morning, the more tired I am in reality. The opposite usually holds true as well. Although if I'm clearly asleep on the table or something, it shouldn't be assumed that my energy bar is anywhere near hyper level.
So anyway, I 'wake up', fully expecting myself to flunk the two papers horribly. Go to school.. go to SAC.. drink can of coffee #1. Sit for B&M paper. Go to library. Last minute maths revision and fun chats. Go to SAC.. drink can of coffee #2. Talk with B&M HL peeps, including Jeanette, who had much to say about cosplay.. god knows why ;). Go back to library for more revision and Matthew antics. Go back to SAC with Berber. Drink can of coffee #3 while Jin struggles with maths question. Go back to library to get bag. Sit for maths paper. Bball fun.
Ended up doing much better than I expected myself to. Either the cans of coffee worked awfully well, or my quick random prayer for alertness throughout the test was answered. Although I still could have done better, I'm satisfied with my performance in the test.
