Printer Problems

Sooo it turns out I have next to no time untill a lot of exams, and part of that came as a little bit of a surprise. (Stupid calenders and me not looking at them.) So I'm going to go right ahead and ignor that fact for the next small amount of time because it doesn't make me very happy.
I should have listened more to the Revision Clock of Doom. He's been on my calendar (well the picture of him) telling me to revise since June 1st. I was going to make the JavaComic my revision comic (the comic I draw while revising) but I haven't really been as insanely distracted as I usaually am.
I saw a mini rant/reveiw thing today about someone's worst cliches, and one of the things they mentioned was the 'liar being revealed' as not who they said they were thing (if this ever happens to you, and it does get to the point where it suddenly gets revealed who you really are, just roll with it. Most likely while your off somewhere thinking about the meaning of life and who you really are, something really bad and unaviodable will happen where you just left and you'll be just in time to get back and save everyone.) although a similar thing I find more annoying (although yes if it wasn't for this a lot of movies wouldn't go anywhere) is the lack of communication, or worse people just plain old not listening.
Like in the bourne something or other (I've only seen them in a marathon, they kind of joined together). That guy flat out didn't listen to JASON BOURNE, who was trying to save his life. The best there was.
In fact the whole of that series could have been resolved a lot quicker with a lot less voilence if people just communicated a little better. They're on the phone enough during the films. Everyone just second guesses each other the whole time and asumes the worst.
Clearly if your reasoning goes anything like "Why is that guy not talking to us? Why did he go to his bank? HE MUST BE TRYING TO KILL EVERYONE!!1!!!" you're just asking for trouble.

Also I think life hates me today. Especially the printer part of life. First it printed all of my notes only using 1/16 of the page, then it printed them (2 pages per page, dual sided) ordered 2,1,4,3,6,5. There is no way you could ever get those pages back in the right order.
Even if you cut them up into A5 pages, they'd still have the wrong number on the back. Why is there even a printer setting to do that?

Also (again. Does anyone know any good words for also? I really need some.Comment them below and  the best ones will get used in this blog!) I've found another way to get myself motivated. Stuck, don't want to work, feeling like you have too much work to do?
Put on some epic'y music (of the batman type variety) and tell yourself that your a science guy on the save the world team. Its nothing to lose and eveything to gain! Would *favourite science guy* give up? Would they decide it was too hard to try? Only if they were having a BSOD moment, and all that means is that someone needs to tell them to pick them self up and get back at it. 'Cuz maybe you failed one time, or maybe it looks like too much, maybe it doesn't look like you stand a whelks chance in a supernova but your going to try it anyway, and your not going to stop trying untill its all done and over.
Because you're just that kind of person.

Yeah it may not work forever, and evenutally the music will stop and you'll stop thinking like that but its a start. If it gets you working then its all good.
