MCOM

This class is twice per week for three hours (2-5, right in the middle of the day) and is apparently too much for my brain to handle as I always fall asleep (I seriously JUST YAWNED thinking about it!). I honestly thought it was the new anti-convulsant I'm on and apologized/ assured him things would be under control the next class period but when it happened again despite my valiant efforts and my given word and even after chewing gum and having my phone buzz in my pocket every two minutes, I knew it was just me.

My professor is really nice and though his class is on the dry side, he genuinely cares about his students. I have no idea how to stay awake beside eating caffeine pills which tend to give me seizures. Key word on "give me seizures". My neurologist and I agreed that was not the only reason for my seizures but it was indeed related to the frequency and duration of the "events" as everyone seems to call them lately.

Anyone have any surefire ways to stay awake for three hours in a warm room while talking about punctuation?

I love my prof but his class is so very boring. His homework is busywork, which I can't stand. Practice exam, memo-drafts, group projects...everything I really don't like. I want tests, these memos, presentations, and research papers. I don't even mind his memos but drafts of memos that are only one pages long feel like a waste of time. I just want to write the one page and be done with it...

I would bring my laptop but the dumbass kid in the front row would figure out a way to act just like a freshman and suggest I bring in candy and doughnuts for the next class period.

Feck that.

I'm going to be on campus for 14 hours today. I kind of want to die?
