nuclear projection

I haven't experienced such a brain drain in so long I actually attempted to eat liquid paper.

Actually I was just biting my finger and didn't notice it had white stuff on it.

Two papers into exams and I'm seriously suspecting my brain has shrunk after 3 years of being in social work, because the papers were difficult, the common denominator being Prints who has incurred the wrath of some of my Malay classmates who can't understand what it is that she's asking for. Personally I suspect this might be her passive aggressive way of getting back at all the people who don't turn up for her lectures, considering the questions for today's research paper were touched on in the last lecture which less than half the class turned up for.

Last lecture or not, it is insane to give 6 essay-type questions and 1 proper essay question for a 2-hour exam. And on top of that, attempting to comprehend the dense 3-page research report is quite a feat even for the non-dyslexic.

The two-inch pile of 'Nation Building' notes are waiting to be devoured, but behind my skull there is a hammer tapping away like Fernando attempting to drill through a wall with an egg beater a la Prison Break. Talk about a proper mindscrew.
