Oh, gee, first my FTP server disappears for an entire weekend, and now my HTTP server seems to be on a vacation. Don’t you love the consistent nature Uprush has to offer?

I think i secured two B’s today … in Literature i’ve been very aggressive in discussion ever since returning from my sick leave and today she returned one of my (rather shoddy) essays marked with an A. Seeing as she’s given me nothing but A’s on my essays and i always chat in class, doesn’t it seem rather pointless to give me a C just because of my spotty attendance (which was obviously largely due to continuing illness)? As it is i still do more reading and participating than half the class, even if i only come half of the time! Also, i got 2 points off of a perfect score in my final foray into Public Speaking, which assures me a B since both of my other speeches were B’s. Interestingly, even though i’m working my ass off to secure my precious precious B’s, i don’t have any class nearly as challenging or stressful as Philosophy was last term … in other words, i at least feel as though i have a basic understanding of all of my subject matter. Acting and Aural should both be A’s, so now i just have to play catch-up with recording class and hope for the best. (Although, it’s not entirely comforting that hoping seems to have as much weight as attendance at this point…)

And, for the record, waking up sucks.

By the way, for now i’m choosing sleep, but in the greater scheme of things that decision means nothing, because i’ll eventually wake up. Damn those schemes of things…

Methinks it might be time for bed. I can’t even begin to tell you why i’m up this late, since i’m obviously not doing any work and i’ve gotten way past surfing to all of my favourite sites. Mostly it’s because i slept half the day today … nearly until 2pm. I’m usually not given to such slothfullness on weekdays if only because i can’t ever bring myself to go back to sleep after i’m wholly awake, but today i made an exception because i really didn’t want to be anywhere other than in bed. What’s funny is, as much as i was fulfilled by the sleep, now i seem to think that sleep is the last thing i need and i’d rather just stay awake. I know i liked sleeping, and that i’ll like sleeping, but despite that i’m sitting here wide awake and typing – which in the greater scheme of things means nothing.
So, yeah. I suppose what i have to decide between is the moment and my continued happiness. Right now i’m having a fine time, but i should probably be asleep. It’s better for me. But, if i sleep, i’ll miss out on doing things. Sure, some of them might be pretty stupid, but there’s a gem in there every so often. But, if i go to bed, it’s all just dreams, and nothing ever comes of them.
If anyone knows what i’m talking about, i’ll buy you a cookie. Really. Try me.
