Diary Entry

3.38 pm I have been next to useless today. I slept until 11.00 this morning! I still feel terrible, too. I have done absolutely nothing on my paper that's due tomorrow except for get my books out and open Word on the computer. I just feel no motivation whatsoever to do anything. I think it might be my medication. Still, the alternative is to go absolutely stark raving mad due to stress and start having panic attacks again. Instead, I might not be motivated, but I'm calm. And it's only certain things I find I can't get motivated to do, like homework and candle making. I honestly can't wait until this assignment is handed in. Then I'll have to motivate myself to study for my criminological theory exam, but that's a bit easier than writing a 2000 word essay. The essay part comes with the exam, it's the background reading I'll have to do.

The DC forum is growing! Rachel joined today, and (big surprise!) Gary joined too! He's not strictly a DC fan, just an F1 fan in general, but that's fine. No one minds as long as no one slags off DC.

7.37 pm The first section of the essay is well under way! I'm making progress ...

Simon and Jack came up for half an hour and let me go to the toilet (I don't like going up there when no one else is around and it's dark) and bought me some chips and garlic bread with cheese and mushrooms. Yum! Ricky didn't want to come. He was watching telly and couldn't be bothered. Yet he'll be the first one to cry that he misses me when it's time to go to bed. Still, he would have cried when he went home and found out I was staying here til I get this finished!
