I've finally hit the stage in second term when numbness sets in. I've been tired all day (5-6 hours sleep last night, as I drove mom to the airport early this morning), and I've read 300 pages in 5 hours for ec discussion tomorrow. Tomorrow's reading forecast? 500 pages (or more!) for h 97, plus studying german and the language lab tapes for the oral final wednesday. It scares me, because I've already lost so much motivation. I don't want to take any Is, but I may end up doing so for h 161, simply because I waited too long to begin research on a topic, and so much other stuff is hitting me right now.

At least the grey mood's mostly gone - now I just feel hollow and emotionless. I think that's better. Better to feel nothing than to want to cry, right?

I just hope this term ends quickly. I want out of here now.
