Some subjects appeal to me more than others, naturally. So the drive to prepare for a subject like Geology is somewhat an uphill task. Each time I tried to get past a few pages of notes about rocks and minerals, my Heart comforted me, "You totally deserve a small nap for trying."
Even my Brain agreed.
As a team, we didn't get too far today and the anxiety levels continued to rise... until, a classmate clarified that I was mistaken with the dates and there was no exam tomorrow.
We learned a lesson: luck sometimes favours procrastinators.

My latest classical music crush is Karthik Iyer.
The genius of this guy can be seen around t = 6:20.
He's incredibly talented. His music takes me to other worlds and has the same effect on other fans too (judging by Youtube comments). His Youtube videos also take up a significant portion of data allowance from my monthly broadband connection. He makes me believe (falsely) that I can play like that because it looks so effortless when he does it. He makes me want to pick up my violin again.
I am hopeful that someday I'll have a stroke and wake up being able to play like this, similar to reports of the foreign accent syndrome where people develop new accents after a stroke.
