lol, yeah man get used to it. you really gotta know when to listen to your brain and just take a break. for me a week break sometimes is a huge recharge.

sometimes, i am just reading through crap thinking what the hell is this?!!?! really just going through the motions, like why am i learning how to do routing with windows??????

It happens to me all the time. I do try to take breaks so I don't get burned out.

One of these days I'm just going to take an entire month off from studying anything. It's going to be hard but I think I need to do that.

Back to studying...lol...is typing this post considered a break...probably not...well off to studying!!!

You know you have it bad when you go to bed at night and have dreams of kerberos and RADIUS authentication

Playing Guild Wars or Half-life 2 for a couple of hours usually clears my head out enough to resume studing.

I've been studying very strenuously for Security+, trying to balance everything, I understand what everyone's going through

.... that is feels like your eyeballs are going to fallout?

.... that your brain feels like jello?

.... and then realize its 4am and you have to wake up for work at 6am -- what the heck, 2 more hours of study time!

.... that there isn't enough caffeine in the world to keep going.

Is that the beginning of summer or the end of summer?

Yeah, taking a test here and there requires a little bit of support from friends, family, pets, co-workers, and kind strangers on the street. Taking one of those "big" certifications could qualify as an "epic." Toss those kids into the equation..... hey, we need an emoticon that is saluting!

Hum.... isn't that what lunch hours are for?..... if you aren't already sitting at your desk doing some configurations while trying to eat a sandwich.

I took practice tests for so long one day that I could not read the screen. I was taking the exams on a small screen. I had to just sleep for a while.
