Critiques today were completely anticlimatic. Guh. I'm pleased with how my work turned out but Dude! I really would have liked more feedback other than "Hey, that's neat". It made all the stressing I've been caught up in this week feel like a complete waste of time.

I'm completely pumped on caffiene. Last year I gave up caffiene completely: coffee, dark colas--the works. Now I'm back in the nasty habit of not being able to function in the morning without a fix.

Dear Internet,

I wish I could sleep.

I keep saying to myself, "Ok! We're going to go to school and get so much work done and when we come home we'll feel so accomplished and great about ourselves!" but I never get around to leaving the house. It's ridiculous.

I'm worse than a crow--any shiny object can distract me from my life's work. The attention span of a gnat, really.

Anyway.
