How I Lost My Mind in Five Days

I've completely lost my damn mind. And here's how: I studied Modern East Asian History for five days straight. I started last Wednesday, and studied until Sunday. My final exam was yesterday afternoon and luckily I was completely prepared. But how could I not have been when I studied for FIVE days!? I might have been too prepared though - my answers for the identification/significance portion of the exam were out of control; like, entire paragraphs of useless information that didn't really need to be there.

And now I can barely put a coherent thought together when I'm talking to someone. My brain is completely fried - at this point I'm lucky that I could put this post together. I'm constantly spacing out, and trying to hold a conversation with someone is starting to get difficult. I can't sleep at night - I haven't gotten more than five hours of sleep in a night since Thursday.

The worst part? I have two more finals tomorrow, the first of which is at 8:00 AM. That's going to be interesting.... What's going to end up happening is I'll probably take a nap later this afternoon and then stay awake all night and then take my exam. Hopefully I don't pass out in the middle of the exam!

The light at the end of the tunnel: I get to go home Thursday morning! Granted I still need to pack up my entire life between then and now while still studying, but that shouldn't be too hard. I'm just ready to go home; I'm sad to leave my friends for the summer, but I just need to get away for a little while. There's too much shit going on here, it's time to get away for a few months. And I'm pretty pumped to do so.
