The worst feeling in the world is when your leg falls asleep, and you try and walk on it and it goes all wonky and then you have to deal with the whole pins and needles poking. I always thought it had to do with blood not being able to get to the outer parts but no, it's your nerves and they just can't talk to your brain anymore and this is absolutely amazing stuff to read. I love it when my parents send me books and articles in the post. DAD FINDS SUCH INTERESTING THINGS. Did you know that squirrels can be domesticated? I WANT A SQUIRREL NOW.

I believe people need to start thinking for themselves more.

Is this the point where we all start writing about how we can’t wait for the break and how horrible classes are? I never really understood that, because there’s no point in complaining about something you can’t change, so you can expect none of that from me. I’m perfectly content living out the rest of the term and actually look forward to finishing strong and taking exams as a reward.

Did you know that exams were traditionally given orally? Can you imagine how wicked that would be? I do like essays, let me tell you, but being put on the spot and having to work out a problem in your mind and think about the words and answer before you actually say it? The first written exams were conducted at Cambridge because the proctors realized they would make more money since it took students longer to write out their answers than give them orally.

I'm tired of this stupid ball and don't want to talk about it.
