Sweet sweet sleep

We shipped our bot earlier this morning thank goodness

I'm in physics class right now, and Scooter (teammate) sits two seats away from me and he is nodding off right now - I also think he is talking to himself in his sleep

hopefully I can make it through all of my classes today I know he won't

anyone else feel the same way?

It's february break here in Ithaca I slept at 2am but still woke up without an alarm at 10:30am for some reason. However, I'm rested and this season was very nice... no late nights.

Ugh, between being here and doing homework late at night/early in the morning, I haven't gotten to bed before 3 a.m. since last Friday! Oh well. We don't have school tomorrow, so I think I'll be spending the day sleeping.

Gotta get back to work! This thing gets crated in 1 1/2 hours!

I can say that with 5 and a half hours of sleep, I'm not too alive right now. (I'm currently in my weekly seminar on engineering... we're doing some pretty uninteresting stuff on elasticity right now.) It's study hall, and I really should be sleeping but I can't fall asleep. The freshmen in here are too loud, blabbering about how funny this or that would be. (Taking some type of a crane with a claw and pulling out a wing of the school at a time? That's so tame... I'd much rather implode it using some explosives.)

I think when I get home tonight, I'll be sleeping for a good amount of time. (I feel nine hours coming on tonight... mmm... sweet sweet sleep.)

We'll all find the rest we need over the next few weeks, hopefully.

However, I'm waiting for withdrawal to set in. That'll be interesting. A month and seven days til I get to see our sweet little creation again. *sigh*

uuuugggahhhhh. snork. yyyyzzzztt. hhhuuh?

Random thoughts:

86 hours over the last five days, working in the UNHEATED garage during the Atlantic blizzard. 22 degrees F. Somebody gimme a torch, I need to braze something just to stay warm. Found out that blizzards are great for focusing your attention on the job at hand, when you can't get out and go home even if you want to. Five students sleeping on my floor, several in desperate need of a shower. For three days, all we saw of Matt was the back of his head hunched over the milling machine. I'm getting way too old for this, I need a nap.

Ahhh sweet sleep maybe I'll be able to get some now that our animation is shipped. Ahhh to be able to close my eyes and not see the blaring screen of a computer will be nice again. As for sleep today hopefully not during my lectures, those are the worste to get through with over 100 people you start to wonder if your teacher will even notice, and then they call on you, so i better keep my eyes open for today

Ah, yes, sleep. After the hours we pulled the last week and a half to get the bot moving, we've all earned a break (I'm sure this also applies to every team out there). I have been a walking zombie. So bad that I set my alarm for 6PM instead of 6AM. Too bad I still had to go to school . Well, I can't wait till I go into robot withdrawal in two weeks...
