Help Second half of battery drains faster than first half?

So I used my Hero this morning/afternoon with music, wi-fi, internet browsing, and I used up the first half of the battery. And after that, I have been mostly studying and not using my phone... but the second half of the batter drains, it seems like, FASTER than the first half did! No music playing, no wi-fi, no internet browsing? Is this normal? Is it just the nature of these batteries? Is this abnormal for me to experience?

A few questions.

Are you sure you turned off the WiFi after you were done using it?

Have you seen the thread about the Hero not sleeping after using the messaging app?

If you did, its possible that while your Hero appeared to be sleeping, it wasnt, and if the WiFi was on, it would lend aid to the drain of your battery.
