We found out today that ALL of us are burnt out.
This is the busiest period in our term, supposedly, but somehow we lose the languor, the drive and motivation.
Despite Optimization midterm this wednesday, we couldn't really study last weekend. Today, somehow the mood was high and hyper... it is not like we're going to have midterm at all. We just couldn't care less. The class has never been closer like today.
Until the TA had to quieten us.
Some of us bring laptops to the class. And in the middle of Optimization lecture, my friend check his e-mail and... PDE Assignment is postponed for another one week!!
HOORAAAAYY!!
So we went even more high and hyper afterwards. (I heard that a senior typed for 9 PAGES for the derivation of question 2b. 9 pages just for the derivation! Can you imagine that? And I haven't even started that particular question. The due date was supposed to be 30 Oct).
Except me.
Halfway through the lecture, suddenly I felt sick. Really sick. Head spinning, nauseatic, listless.
When I stood up after the class finished, I realized that my body shaking especially my arms and legs. Walking to the van was something strenuous. I could really see my hands trembling. I really thought I would faint any minute.
I am home now, take as much as glucose surge as I can. Biscuits, chocolate, hot ginger drink...
That's why I didn't go to sleep straight away. I have to stuff myself. As if chocolates are my staple..
