This post is all about sleep. I'm writing this because i am extremely tired!
So when i was a little kid, i was always called Alyssa"Crack of Dawn" McNeal along with my 100 other nicknames. I was called this because apparently i would wake up (& woke everyone else up) before the sun would rise. (sorry about this Ky i know how you feel now). And i now wonder how i was soo active on such little sleep. Even in elementary and jr. high i would only need about 6-8 hours of sleep and i was ready to go for the day.
High school is when it started going down hill. hoodies with the hair in a pony was always the outfit because i could sleep in 25 mins before i had to leave for school. Everyone always told me once you get to college you learn to live off of no sleep. They also said 5 hours of sleep would be a full nights worth of rest.
Well let me tell you something, once i came to college i needed more sleep than i ever had in my life! And i blame it on naps. i use to NEVER nap till my freshman year of college. All my classes were earlier so i would sleep the afternoons away then sleep all night.
With my class schedule now all of my classes are afternoon and night classes, therefore no more naps, but i get to sleep in till 12 everyday! well except wed and thur bc i work at 930! i need to get back on a schedule here soon. over the summer i would go to bed at 11/12 and get up at 8/9. Once i start teaching at the end of this semester- i am going to DIE!
Hopefully next semester i can get morning classes and get on a routine! but then i wonder how am i ever going to be able to be a teacher and be up and dressed nice and to work by 8 am!?! i don't want to think about it!
Point is, last night i went to pitt and went to bed at like 2 ish and woke up at 830 and im soo tired i cant keep my eyes open ( this is still after a 1.5 hour nap).
I want to go back to pitt tonight to go out to buckheads with Luke and his brother. (his bro works there so we can get in free and cheap drinks) so when does this opportunity happen? i feel like i need to embrace it but my eyes wont stay open. wonder if they will mind if i take a short nap on the bar?
wising i could go to sleep now!
Sleep! Yes, I'll take 12 hours please...hahaha. Take my advice and sleep as much as you can now. Because once you have a baby, sleep will never be the same. It'll get better than the first 48 hrs, but it's never be the same.
ReplyDeleteAll this talk about sleep is making me sleepy. I'm gonna get things ready for tommorrow and get some zzz's myself...hahaha. ;-)
