Jet Lag and I are fighting...

So I'm going to try and make this a habit of writing a little bit everyday even if it's not so exciting. Then maybe I'll actually remember to keep this thing updated.  It is now midnight my time (5pm central).  I couldn't fall asleep until 8 am this morning (1 am central). SO frustrating. These last couple trips hopping the pond jet lag and I have NOT gotten along. It's starting to wear on our relationship. I mean I may just have to stop making this transatlantic trips if he's going to continue to be uncooperative. ;)

So jet lag...yeah I'm talking to you...we're fighting in case you didn't know. I can't study science in a foreign language if you're going to be keeping me up at all hours of the night feeding my facebook addiction (which has become, I'm afraid to say, quite bad). I actually feel physical anger when the newsfeed doesn't change. Is that a sign there needs to be some intervention??? oh geez...

Anyway, nothing exciting other than my inability to sleep in Swissmode. I even went without caffeine (i.e. my daily coke zero, tea, and coffee) ALL day. It was awful. haha. Hopefully that means I'll sleep in the next couple of hours, but we'll see. This week will most likely be pretty quiet because I'm going to be studying the mounds of science I have....I'm not even sure where to start. : /

Do I re-write the notes and then translate? or translate then re-write? or type them on the computer? or simply re-read them? or wait...how much material do I even have to know? are they going to quiz me on the books they recommended in the bibliographies?? there's 15 of them...just for one day's lecture!!! PANIC!!!! My friend Federica would say 'tranquila Sarah, tranquila.' She says that to me a lot...it means calm down. I'm sure you all are surprised by that too...my panic mode and worrying. HAH...right. :)

Alright must go try and sleep...
