Gav, I know how you feel. My dad had to file for bankruptcy a couple of years ago and it was really hard for me to see him struggle with money because he had such a well-paying job. He's back on his feet now, but he's still just barely making those payments. I think that's one of the reasons why I'm kind of obsessed with wanting to be wealthy when I graduate college. I want to buy my parents all the things that I didn't (and don't) have while growing up.
Stay strong, though. Your dad will bounce back from this soon. My thoughts are with you! :)
James, people would be rioting in the streets if they tried that at my school.
If they want to block filesharing, why don't they block actual filesharing programs, like Limewire and Kazaa and such instead of something that's main intent is communication and one of the minor features is file transfer? I don't think most people even know that you can use it for that.
There's something wrong with my peach.
Hugs for gav.
Meh, I've screwed myself out of getting nearly enough sleep tonight.

Basically being up all night with a pounding headache, I finally fell asleep around 5:30am. They start mowing the lawn at 6:30. Not cool. At all.
Of to 3 and a half hour class. blah.
I screwed myself out of getting enough sleep as well. Started statistics homework at like midnight, figured oh math is easy. It is pretty much, but I wasn't taking into account that I had to draw graphs and stuff. I finished at 2:30. Blah.
AAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
thanks.
I have to write an article for the paper really fast. My editor finally wrote back, saying he thought he already did. I could have used his go-ahead like a week ago.
Today is going to be a loooooong day. It hasn't even begun and I'm already exhausted.

My sleep pattern is so beyond f**ked-up at this point that I don't know how I'll fix it, I can't seem to get myself to do the homework I have to hand in this afternoon, and I really need to do something about my computer's lack of hard drive space.

Writing the Essay, I remember it all too well *hugs*
Believe me, I know it's an awkward situation, but have you tried talking to your roommate about the breakfast issue?
I got let out of class at 10:30 and my next class isn't until 2. I can't go home because it takes me an hour to get home. So I'm all alone in the "Rec Room" bar at my school, which is open at the moment. Updated On: 9/19/06 at 10:59 AM

The roomie can always take breakfast out into the hall. I used to do that my freshman year. Well, before I stopped sleeping altogether; then I just ate at totally random times.
I need to figure out if I can escape a really, really important political science department meeting that just happens to be on Friday. It's not like that's Rosh Hashannah and my parents want me to be home or anything. (Sucks to be a Jew. Again.)
I don't understand why a school with like, a 25% Jewish population has classes on the High Holy Days. Grrrrr.
Time for some journalism on crack. Arrrgh.
I totally didn't realize that they were actually called the High Holy Days, I thought it just meant like regular holidays.
Update on my time killing: I have twenty minutes left of power on my laptop, I'm thinking of taking a trip across the street for lunch.

My battery's pretty much dead .
Hmm. Well, do you know if she's totally set on it? Maybe she doesn't know it bugs you that much, and if she did, she would have something else. Does she have friends on your floor who get up early? Maybe she could use their microwave, or something? You should try to talk to her about it, though. :-/
I AM SO SLEEPY. I almost dozed off in class and I really really really want to take a nap.

I'm really tired as well. I'm glad that Tuesday/Thursday are relatively easy days and I can probably catch a nap this evening (between studying for calculus and zoology).
That's really too bad about the roommate/breakfast issue, Lexi. Probably a lame suggestion, but... earplugs? Or headphones?
I hate everyone right now!

Woot! Got out of the department meeting. Now I just have to write a paper! Um, now.
This has been the most stressful day ever.
