College Life

I...  am....  exhausted.  I am convinced that part of the college experience - almost a right of passage - is to be so tired that your eyes itch.  So tired that everything from your text book to those studying around you become absolutely hilarious.  So tired that you ponder your bed more often than you should and you fantasize about how warm and comfortable it will be.  Your eyes are heavy, your immune system is weak, and everything is funny.  I find myself in such a state right now.

 I have a cold, a headache, and have only had about half the sleep I would after normal sleeping patterns over the past few nights.  I feel as though I might sneeze my nose off!  I have a pain that has taken residence in my upper right nostril and my eyes are always watering and heavy.  I'm not allergic to anything, so I know its a cold - which means that sleep and water can cure me.  Alas, all I can do is drink water.  Sleep isn't an option for me.  Not with the schedule I keep.  It is an impossibility.

 I do believe the triangle above says it all!  It is missing a few elements, however, such as a job, personal time, and the ever difficult decision between healthy food, whats cheap, and the nearest vending machine.  College is one of the most interesting places I have ever been to!  Only in college will students willingly deprive themselves of sleep to work for just a few more minutes on an upcoming project.  Only in college will a person with who knows what kind of disease infecting the body still get up for class, go to work, and then live in the library working on homework until the wee hours of the morning.  Only in college will a man with too much to do take time to write on his blog.  ;)

Well.... I must get back to homework.  I have a four page paper due on Tuesday that I need to create.  I plan on being physically well the next time I write.  Wish me luck!
