I slept for just under two hours last night, and have managed to make it through the entire day without falling asleep. Well, except once. I might have drifted out for a moment during my exam today, but that was because I finished an hour and a half early (yes!) and just sat and waited for the Frenchies to stop their writing frenzy so I could hand in my paper peacefully. I have no idea what they wrote about for so long, and to be honest, I'm a little worried that whatever I wrote was a bit barebone for my professor's taste.
The Boy and I stayed up late last night giggling like girls at a sleepover party. I kept telling him we had to stop talking and I had to go to sleep, but things just kept getting funnier and funnier. Then he fell asleep before me and started babbling in his sleep, in uproariously funny non sequiturs. In the end, I fell asleep just before 4.00 am and got up at 5.30.
Not so happy to be going to work this morning.
But you know what? I wasn't really tired all day. Work was great - I learned that two of my least favorite classes are getting cancelled, and that this week I will have half the hours I normally do. That gave me a boost when the shitty coffee from the teacher's loung machine failed to pull through for me.
Then I trucked it back into the city in time to cram with friends before our final. My exam, although frighteningly short, went semi ok, which was more than I had been expecting on so little sleep. Besides the fact that I wrote 1/4 of what my classmates did, our answers seemed to have matched up, so I feel good about that.
Now, it's almost 10.00 and I am calling today a job well done. Tomorrow? More teenagers to be dealt with, so I better get some rest. Finally.
