Friday - woke up at 7.30 to go to school for my 9am seminar followed by classes, which ended at 4pm. Got home at around 5pm, slept for three hours and started writing my paper for HB until Saturday morning 7am. Woke up at 9.30am and rushed to my Hindi teaching class in Culver city. Came back at around 3pm, went to sleep. Woke up after 3 hours because I was unable to sleep due to stress and day time sounds. Ate stomach full, drank a three shot espresso latte and started writing my paper again. Sunday at around 5am, I gave up and my computer started sounding weird. I was more than half done but still not satisfied. Woke up at around 9am, showered, ate while writing and at around 3pm my eyes start feeling tired but I was done with the paper. I had only three hours before I turn in my paper. I wanted to proof read and cut three pages down out of 16 pages. Took a quick break, ate, washed my face and started reading my paper from the very first sentence. Finally by 5.30 I was there where I was supposed to be, not probably where I should be :-( but I cant expect miracles from me in three nights of paper, that would be simply ridiculous. 5.45pm, I emailed the paper to my professor and before the clock hit 6pm I got the confirmation....
Slept through the night until 3pm on Monday and finally I am feeling I am a little fresh. Still I wish I can get over 2 days of sleep without any disturbance, but that would be a dream since the next paper is due in less than a week and there is a midterm exam for my research class...
Joys of Grad school, and fun of midterms!
