what? no break?

i have this thing that i do. in three hour lectures, we always get a break halfway. usually this lasts about ten minutes. (though in belgium it was known to go on for half an hour. hmm. and our classes were only two hours long there. did i mention that i love belgium?) so, sometimes, i skip the first half, show up at break, and then attend the second half of class. sometimes, i do the opposite. i leave at the break. however, this is not my preferred method. my reasoning is that a professor is pretty likely to notice when ten students leave at break. and subconciously, they probably look around and think, okay, these students still here, putting up with me, these are the students that i will be a little bit more lenient on. so, i plan on being in that lecture hall whenever this could possibly happen. because, quite frankly, i need all the breaks that i could possibly get. sometimes i wish i was a better student. but most times, i am okay with being average.

now, though, every once in a while, a hitch happens. like today. somehow, i couldn't make myself get out of bed. and then, while running, i only did half my work out, which rarely happens. (i figure once i am there, i might as well go all out.) everything seemed to take me longer today. so, i missed the first half of class. and i am in the inforum waiting for the break. which doesn't seem to be happening. well, at least i am not in the class. my attention span certainly does not last longer than two hours.
