I know, I know. I can do this.

Friends, be proud.

I studied for two hours.

Sure, taking frequent breaks to blog, drink, and walk around aimlessly. Sure, I mostly studied the math, which (a) we get a cheat sheet for and (b) is a week after my other exams. Sure, I'm never going to finish the english exam. Be proud anyway.

Not everything is the opposite of how it seems. Few things are what they appear to be, but few things, too, are what you would expect them to be (knowing that few things are what they appear to be). Intelligence is a greater number of layers, of levels, of if-I-do-this-they'll-think-I'm-thinking-this strategies. Chess. Yes, even assumptions can be useful.

You'll have to give me lots of chances.
