If one has an exam at 8.00 in the morning tomorrow morning, and the exam is a 40 minute train ride from one's house, what does one do?
The proper prescription is to:
1) eat a healthy and balanced dinner
2) casually look over one's notes afterward
3) drink plenty of water
4) go to bed at a reasonable hour (say 23.00) with a good book
5) allow oneself to drift off shortly thereafter
6) wake up at 6.30 am
7) leave the house around seven.
I believe in alternative medicine. However, I believe I mixed my prescription with someone else's. Instead, I:
1) got home and ate two vanilla yoghurts in a row
2) finished the cashews
3) got in bed to finish reading one of the plays I am being tested on tomorrow
4) nodded off at 21.00
5) woke up at 3.30
6) brushed my teeth
7) wrote this
I find it entertaining that I will be off to an exam in three hours, and that I'm not really sure if I can muster up any more desire to sleep. This should be interesting. I didn't mean to do it.
I guess I'll go back to reading that play I was supposed to finish. My alarm is set for three hours from now. I am wide awake. And all the cashews are gone.
Aren't cashews great?
They are my biggest weakness, my soft spot in a fortified system of self-restraint.
