I've studied for the last...six hours! Wow. I kinda get it which is amazing. I can write equations that make sense. And I can use them in ways that gets right answers. I'm absolutely amazed at this. But chapters nine and ten on angular motion are evil. Nine was kinda okay because I was trying to work through angular velocity and acceleration but ten brought along all the crap with momentum and that is like crazy. I still don't really get conservation of momentum all that well which is why I'm working on chapter ten now until I do. And then I get to go back and do practice exams. Yay.
Right now I'm trying to decide whether or not I want to skip my Comparative Politics recitation. I usually would skip something like that just so I could study late and get a reasonable amount of sleep (not like four hours as I've been known to do in the past) before the exam. It's usually useless to go but I don't like skipping so I usually do. And then there is another thing. My professor made the comment that what we were working on is central to the whole course and is major for the final (probably) but even after going to both lectures (so tempted to skip Wednesday but ended up going for this very same reason), I still don't see the greatness of what we're studying. I'm half convinced that the reason he thinks it's so great and wonderful is because this is what he's studying and writing his papers on. Anyway, recitation usually dumbs things down and clarify points that I might need later on so I don't want to miss it. But going and not going is like a difference of three hours of sleep and that's a whole lot, you know? If I end up going, I'm going to need transfusions of coffee I suspect...
We'll see how late I study up to tonight. I'm aiming for around 3 AM so we'll see I guess... That'll give me about five, almost six hours of sleep which is pretty normal for me on a weekday anyway. (It so could be eight but...)
edit x1: Lost 37 minutes and 8 seconds due to Diana.
