I reckon my brain is like a mobile phone SIM card. Or the k (carrying capacity) in population ecology. I can only remember k number of people and names, then all else is forgotten and in fact the graph goes downhill. Urgh. I walk about college and see some faces I knew I’ve seen before, but I can’t put a name to their face. I know they’re freshers, and by right I should know them, but I don’t. All I can do is smile and say a little ‘hello’ and rush on to class or wherever I’m headed. Likewise for the other person. It’s like I’ve suddenly become all shy or too busy or something. Or maybe I just can’t be bothered… I dunno. It shouldn’t be. Even for ICMUN, I remember a person as “the girl who was France” or “the delegate for Russia” or the “guy who attended 11 conferences”. The same goes for Fencing – “that new epeeist who was trying for the men’s team”.

Right now my mind can only focus on one thing, and one thing alone. The politics of nature conservation… *the* most important essay I’ve ever written in my life. I want this week to be over. I want to know for certain… I want this essay to be done.
