Fifth week blues

I think I might be experiencing some of what people around here call the "fifth-week blues." I generally can keep up with lecture material, but when I try to write an essay, I find that I've never felt so goddamn dumb in my life.

It's not always so bad. On my last essay, when I finished scrawling the last word on it, I felt as if I discovered a little law of the universe. It's actually quite exhilarating when I understand things.

Of course, I have to run into a brick wall several times over before it happens. Discovering little laws of the universe is hard.
