This section is under re-development. It is not finished, and not fully functional. The current
development stage is pre-alpha and as such, not every feature is even implemented yet.

Planet-Black0psMedication - who'd have it, eh?
This entry is going to make me sound dependant on drugs - just to be warned. Just bare in mind I only take medication if I absolutely need it.
I have been having side effects from my medication, which causes very strong Insomnia. Most nights ive been laying there, until mostly 6AM trying to get to sleep. Then, I end up with 3 hours sleep before needing to drive off to college. Very stupid idea, unless I wanted to cause a car crash. so, I end up automatically stopping the awful sound of the alarm clock, and falling back to sleep faster than a computer geek whilst in an opera house. Next thing I know, its mid-day.
The IVA is finally over, so I decided to make extra effort to get to lessons. I haven't been to Computer Hardware for over a month now, due to its unfortunate timetable position of 10:30AM. I know it could be worse (9AM for example) but Im just not going to get behind the wheel of a car, with 3 hours sleep behind me.
The herbal sleeping tablets aren't working. Well, they probably are, but the Insomnia is so strong that they're just inferior. So, in an emergency situation of actually trying to have the ability to get up in the morning, I tried stronger, Knock-out tablets. Oh they worked! Rather too well. It was impossible to get up until 1PM, and even then I was almost collapsing my way downstairs.
A coffee or five later, here I am typing this blog entry, downloading CentOS 4.3, and about to write development documentation for other developers of this site (namely Shaun). Would make a big difference having two developers tackling the 64ft TODO list, which seems to grow faster than Jacks beanstalk.
College wise, I was looking forward to at least a week of rest from assignments, seeing as the IVA is done and dusted. Instead we were handed two assignments at once from one subject, there's another being handed out today (which I hope will get emailed, as I missed the lesson) from End-User support, there's still one to be finished for Applications Software Development, there's one yet to be handed out to me for Computer Hardware, there's still two previous ones to be handed back in for Computer Hardware (albeit completed), I was handed back the Web Management assignment to correct a rather daft error, and ive pretty much given up completely on Application of Number. It's not a needed subject to pass with (which makes a change) and its not normal circumstances - there is just no way I can fit in such a large maths-based project in with another 15 or so assignments. Its just not going to work.
Easter Holiday to the college means "Easter stress-filled homework fortnight". I'd love to see the day where "holiday" actually means "holiday". Student life is a pain - always pennyless, cars cost more than they EVER will to maintain, and free time - what's that? Either time is taken up doing college work, or a part time job (which I don't even have) or it's time actually in college.
