I brought the laptop with me so I could post this.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m currently living in a surreal insomnia-driven myopia caused by almost exactly 48 hours of no proper sleep. At one point I was trying a half an hour sleep, hour of work thing but it was pointless and silly. I&#8217;m in the position now I kept telling myself I wouldn&#8217;t get into after last year.<\/p>\n<p>I blame myself entirely this time, no scape goat like ill health. I&#8217;m pushing deadlines further and further back to a silly point and not leaving time for what I should really be concentrating on. I&#8217;m exhausted by the monotomy of boring pointless academic exercises and grunt work which I feel perhaps illogically compelled to get out of the way before I start the &#8220;important&#8221; stuff.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m completely baffled as to what&#8217;s going on in #imen, and have a profound, uncomfortable feeling of not caring either. I have a suspicion that #imenv2 really isn&#8217;t going to help anyone until some critical bug fixes are released for the old version.<\/p>\n<p>To those who think I&#8217;m being silly getting stressed about my A-levels &#8211; I envy you. I envy your position on the road with this all behind you, a position from which you can look back down the road and realise the mountain suddenly looks a whole lot smaller than it did and might, in fact, make a comfortable home for a mole. But I just ask you to remember that everything is relative and I have yet to reach that point, please be a little more sympathetic until I finish climbing this mole hill and discover in my own time what it really is. I have to discover it for myself.<\/p>\n<p>So anyway, I clamber on this journey of self discovery or whatever it is. There&#8217;s a light at the end of the tunnel and that&#8217;s what I must concentrate on.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m deeply saddened to hear the bad news <a href=\"http:\/\/quinophex.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">quinophex<\/a> has informed us of.
