I make myself sick. Literally.

annabtgI've started studying Physiology I for the exam on Thursday. I was considering passing it up and taking the exam on September - it's a HUGE volume of material and most students pass it up and take the exam at the very end of their studies. But eventually I decided to give it a shot. I've taken the first tome (there's two of them, yeah baby) and an empty notebook and I go skimming and taking notes on the most important parts. Progress is slow, because I haven't really managed to sit down and focus hard on it, even though I'm in the mood for it. And my headache is to blame.
And I'm to blame for my headache - I went to bed at 4.45 a.m. last night, what else could I expect? Plus I woke up at noon, but didn't leave my bed until 2.17 p.m. (precision rules) because I'm lazy like that. It might seem that "oh, you got some extra rest, what's so bad about that?" but that's not how it works. This is not healthy, and I know it.
Then why I don't stop it? I guess you could say it's my drug - staying up late online. I know it's bad for me but I do it anyway.
I succumbed and took a couple of painkillers earlier. I try to avoid them if possible, but right now both my brothers are out, and I wanted to get the headache to go away in order to take advantage of the blessed, blessed silence and study. Seriously - I have one brother who just won't stop talking/yelling/complaining/playing basketball/making noise in any way possible and one brother who spends most of his day studying... and can't do that without listening to music. The problem is, the only media he has to listen to music from are Dad's old record player and his computer, neither of which have an earphone plug anywhere. *headdesk* I'd give him my own speakers for his computer, only I need them more because I often listen to music in the middle of the night. (Although lately I'm often found playing music in the middle of the night, *without* earphones. Ho hum. At least it doesn't keep them from sleeping - they would have told me if it did.)
I made some icons the other day. But I'm not posting them because they are sucky. I don't know, the idea seemed good when it came to me, but when actually iconed it's really... stupid.
I've also been trying to work on Through Times Of War. It's a series of scenes I have in my mind very, very clearly, but when I try to put them into paper... they're just not coming out. I force myself to write them down and the result is horrendous. Writing quality = below zero. Makes a scene that should be capturing and angst-inducing, bland and boring. *sad*
The headache is almost gone now... so I guess it's time to get to studying a bit.
Will see you around.
Anna.

Aw, you should post your icons anyways. Because I bet they are the pwn'age. ♥
Mmm, I'm off to sleep. Love you, sweet.
