I'm so helpless sometimes... I had a horrendeous night last night, pulled an all-nighter with Carol to study for a midterm and to finish an assignment. This amounted to about .5 minutes of sleep, an hour-long Backstreet Boys dance break at 5am, and more coffee than I ever imagined possible. After my crazy day today, I dragged myself through the door with much needed McDonald's at 8pm. I talked to the 'rents and decided to take a half-hour nap before doing what was scheduled for the night, to finish the research, outline and at least five pages of my comparative essay on the management styles of Bolivia and Slovakia. I set my alarm and was out. I woke up later, wondered what happened to my alarm, and realized it was 2am. Good grief, I slept through the alarm. So now I'm up, doing homework and lamenting the stillborn death of my essay.
