Haha, get off bos lady!

Too tired from my fked up timetable; slept for 15h straight today. Must cram perdisco, matlab tests, algebra, management assignment, submission question, catch up on 2 months of readings for management, 4 weeks of accounting, 6 chapters for micro, and 9 weeks of algebra.

AND THEN, start revising for final exams.

I've successfully set myself up for a month of hell; what a good job I've done.
I could say the same to you :p

IDK, I guess I'm not that panicked yet. But I should be. Problem much...

Ah...crap. We got the profit wrong, I think we messed up the adjusting entries. Hopefully we'll get follow through marks.

I AM NOT SLEEPING UNTIL MY REPORT IS DONE.

I actually think, in my 14 years or so of formal education, this is the first proper all nighter I have ever pulled. I think I finished a year 11 english task at about 1.30am, but its nearly 2am and I still have heaps to do.
Its kind of energising actually :p

EDIT: Actually, fuck that, at 4.19am I'm not feeling very energised at all. Executive Summary, lets go go go!

How can you guys manage all-nighters? I've tried to a couple of times, but my brain can never seem to register information after around 10 when I'm doing assessments. Plus my bed is so comfy.

Oh man.
I pulled an all-nighter on Monday/Tuesday. Went to bed at 4:10am and woke up at 5:40am in order to get to uni by 9. This was the worst of about the four all-nighters I've ever pulled.
I wore a big orange coat just so I could use it as a sort of blanket while I napped on the train, haha.

i usually have a coffee around 10:30pm and another one aroud 3:30am. The coffee kicks in before i get sleepy, and if i do get sleepy - loud energetic music's the way to go.

edit: oh yeah,
and make your bed look as unnattractive as possible

I gave up at 5am, but now that I've had 2.5 hours sleep I feel worse than I did last night. Still haven't written the executive summary, only the most important part (marks wise).

I did just call in sick for work this arvo, copped an earful of abuse but whatever.

its great when your lecturer thinks the best way to 'teach' is to not let tutors do active examples on the board, but instead make every student do the questions by themselves and have to ask the tutors.

sure, caters to individuals, but some people are shy and don't ask. that and, if examples were being done on the board, you pretty much answer the whole classrooms question at one go.

and also when lecturers make it painfully obvious that they punish you for not showing up to their lecture, done by not filling the spaces in their lecture note questions.

i hereby state that EVERY COURSE should have a prescibed PACKAGE done by the lecturers in charge/the university made SPECIFICALLY for that course that has DETAILED NOTES + EXAMPLES.

it shits me off that for the first time im stressed out for math because my tutor fuckin sucks and i can't self teach like i normally do cause the book has no fuckin examples.

it makes me have to google shit and spend 1-2 hrs weeding out what i actually need.

I've never pulled an actual all-nighter. I was up until 5:30am doing my history extension major work in year 12, but through uni I've learned to finish things earlier. I'm usually done by 10pm these days, haven't been up doing assessments past then in ages.

Normally I'm done by about 10, 10.30ish. This semester I've been terrible.

(Though I did observe some groups at the assignment box around 15ish minutes before it was due arguing because there was no contents page/conclusion/reference list etc. I was very glad to have made sure I did all that)

The thought of getting up at 6am on a Saturday for an exam makes me want to die.

LOL, that's why I always check to make sure I've done everything I needed to do.

Yeah that's the reason I always like to put together group assessments, so I can go through them and make sure that they've got everything that they need.

So many group assessments this semester.
