A: Drink Red Bull. No, seriously. Drink some kind of energy drink; it'll give you that itchy energy that you just wanna get rid of.

and willpower helps alot. i have 'blah' days or hours sometimes, and i just tell myself 'if i do this, i'll enjoy it.' then i do whatever it is.

EDIT: what i posted was pointless... i edited it to make more sense

i have developed myself a strong willpower over the Last few years that helped me a lot - i often had been able to overcome the, as narf said, 'blah' moods. lately it've been kinda crushed by evening depression - ironically evenings are the time when im doing things, like 3d modelling or doing hw or writing letters or ANYTHING. im a night person, usually my inspirations strike me after 10 o'clock and im motivated to do stuff.

right now i have hard time finding myself anything to do at evenings. i dont know the reason though, i did always spend many of my evenings at home.

I'm not sure I agree with that Red Bull advice. I mean maybe it would work well for you but it just makes me think of this girl I used to know who was utterly dependent on "proplus" caff tablets. She was working really long hours (we all were) and she was unable to function without taking huge doses of this stuff and believe me she was damned scary- an unnatural amount of energy and mood swings like you wouldn't believe. Not good.
