I have class at 1:00 pm today.

It's WAY TOO EARLY FOR ME TO BE AWAKE! (6:40)

I'm having some major insomnia. It's been this way all week, but today's has been, by far, the worst.

We had a ginormous exam in Microscopic Anatomy (histology). This was followed by an evening of partying and actively blocking everything school related through the use of alcohol.

There was a nice holiday potluck tonight at school. There was food, there was wine. It was fun except for the part where I perhaps had more boxed wine than I should have. This SHOULD have allowed me to sleep soundly through the night, but nooooooooooo.

Instead, I had dreams- nightmares, actually- about histology. I'm taking the exam again, not getting all those answers wrong that I got wrong in real life (I know I did miserably on the lab portion). I woke up at 3, 4, and 5. At 5 my body rejected falling asleep and so I watched the last episode of Heroes, which proved to be pretty darn good.

It's interesting, we learned that the Pineal Gland, a tiny part of the brain, is involved in circadian rhythms and the conversion of serotonin to melatonin at night. So, my Pineal Gland is to blame for this!

On Thursday, my sister from another mother is coming to visit me from Puerto Rico. Why she would leave a tropical climate to come to this cold hell hole is beyond me. Just kidding! I'm worth the cold!

It's a therapy trip for her. Sometimes, you just need a vacation, you know? And who better to visit than little ol' me?

Ok although it's been a while since I've blogged, I still don't much to say. I'm gonna try that "sleep" thing one more time. If I can't do it, I guess maybe I can start studying for my next exam. WHOOP-DEE-FREAKING-DOO.
