Why am I awake??

It's a valid question, another valid question: why am I kind of excited to take my 1st spanish TEST (in a year and a half, maybe a little more) tomorrow? I have a sore throat which is causing my ear to hurt (left, not right, don't worry).
Side-story --------------------> When I was little I used to get ear aches a lot, more than your average little kid, somewhere between the age of 6 and 8 the Otolaryngologist (ear, nose and throat Dr.) found a hole in my right ear drum, yes that can actually happen, no I don't remember any of the pain or surgery (I was asleep obviously). They did surgery, took part of the healthy tissue from my left ear(drum??) and patched the hole in the right (I think, again I was little). So I AM slightly deaf in my right but apparently not enough to be considered a handicap or learning disability, although lately (for about the last 3 years) I have been able to tell the difference in volume (should probably get it looked at).<-------------------- End of side-story
Back to my point, I'm excited to take a test, now mind you I don't test well on multiple choice tests but can figure things out fairly well when writing that's why I like most math tests, well not like but do well on. I think I'm just excited to see how well I can do because I am a bit competitive when I think I should be or I am good at something. Some times that's a bad thing because I make little mistakes because I fly through things but if I take my time I should be okay. Then I have four hours of nothing and then Bio and Chem, uhg! But then I get to go talk to J about the book she gave me and it's really given me some insights and I've only finished the first chapter. Maybe I'll read a bit more during those four hours, then I get to have dinner with a friend and hear about her trip, maybe ask her a few questions about some stuff I've been wondering about for Australia, of course I could ask M or a few other friends but que sera, sera. Then Cru and don't get me wrong on what I'm about to say, I look forward to Cru every week but this week just feels different, I'm almost more excited than I've ever been and last year I had a very good reason to look forward to Cru almost every week. Then it will be Thursday, which means my 1st applied calc quiz but it's just basic review of algebra and geometry (only 5-6 questions) no big deal but then RallyCats and lifegroup. I love RC meetings because they are run quickly and efficiently, they may start late but the meeting doesn't get side-tracked (very often) and doesn't lag; it's not boring though. I love the RCs, they are so very different from Cru and yet, lately the two have been colliding more and more. I'm not quite sure how I feel about that but it could be a good thing, it'd be awesome if the RCs came to The Maze next Wed. I mean some of Cru goes to the games and heck some are even athletes so yeah they should come support it and it's going to be super cool. But I digress (I wonder how T feels about me starting that sentence with 'but'?) I still don't know why I'm still awake.
