Earthquake

We had an earthquake couple of days ago, I guess it happened last Friday at 5:30am. I was in deep sleep and even didn't feel anything. It was a 5.2 magnitude earthquake, not a big one, and the center of the earthquake was in Illinois, so it didn't give us any damages. This is the first time I've been in an earthquake in my life, and I didn't know IN has the possibility of earthquake, kinda scary~

Recently, I am too tired and stressed out for my finals and comprehensive exams. If I couldn't pass that damned exam, I have to be kicked out of school, which is really bad. Everyone is working extremely hard now, which makes me more nervous. Could anyone tell me a way to get rid of my stress?

Game Theory

Recently, I am trying to play all different kinds of games, from chess to cards. Sometimes, I have to play those games until midnight. Not kidding, overworked graduate student play games until midnight. Actually, it is not that difficult to play those games as long as you don't have to think about the theory behind those games, such as those subgame perfect equilibrium, sequential equilibrium, and etc. Once it gets to that point, it is not funny to play anymore. Sometimes, my brain refused to work whenever I put the game out. Oh, "game" theory~
