i'm crazy. yes, i am.
it's nearly 6am and i find myself dry-eyed, staring at my computer screen trying to figure out these riddles! i don't remember when i started, but i've worked my way through the easy and medium ones and i'm slowly working my way through the hard section. some of these i've heard before and i've been skipping ones that involve chess, higher higher mathematics, and/or a calculator. (but still, six-freaking-A-M!)
i may have to resist doing puzzles and IQ tests (which pat keeps sending me) because i think they're stumbling me. i find that i'm good at these types of logic games. but i think i place waaaaay too much value in them and i get too prideful. this then makes me frustrated, thinking "how can these IQ tests say that i'm gifted yet some stupid girl at EMI can't see that obviously the most qualified person for the job?!?" i've come to the conclusion that being able (or not being able) to do these puzzles is useless-- it's a completely fruitless activity. there's no (fun) job for people that are good at solving riddles. and it only gives me some arbitrary basis for glorifying myself. and it makes me stay up way too late which'll make me tired during lunch tomorrow.
*sigh*
they are fun though.
