i am so tired – no exhausted.  school is not in session, and i am still only getting a few hours of sleep.   many of nights extend to 3 or 4 in the morning typing up reports or working on my thesis.  just so i can get up early the next morning to resume my work.  i usually end up like the picture.  dozing off at my computer has now become a signal that bedtime has arrived.  attempts to catch-up are futile since it puts me behind on work.  i’m stuck between a rock and a hard place.

i wonder when i will have one week where i can do absolutely nothing.  i miss my carefree summers.  i chose this position because of the experience, but a respite would not hurt.
