I think my sanity is actually vanishing. My body is not yet used to the amount of sleep I now get every night, and waking up every morning at 6:30 or 7:20, my spoiled child-like body is screaming 5 more minutes every time I my alarm goes off. Weekends are not my party times anymore, not like I did that a lot anyways, now I wake up and go to work every day I don’t have school. Work starts anywhere from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and ends at 5:00 p.m. or 7:00 p.m. If I completed all my homework, I’d be able to read, or sleep or watch TV. Now, my first class starts at 9:00 a.m., you would think I would be able to sleep till 8:00 a.m., right? Wrong! I have to drive 45 minutes to get to my classes, so I actually have to leave at 8:00 a.m. or risk being late and making my boyfriend late. Classes usually end around 3:40 p.m. for me, so it’s all day long. Then I have to do homework. And get ready for work the next day.

I’ve been accustomed to adult life for some time now. I work enough to pay bills and have something extra, if I don’t spend it. I pay my bills on time, I know my responsibilities. But I’m not used to being a student anymore. I’m not used to not having a day off anymore. Or not being able to sleep in anymore. I can’t take naps during the day, because I will end up sleeping for the rest of the year! In other words: I. Am. Exhausted. Today, I couldn’t even write properly. I kept misspelling words. I know how to spell, I just couldn’t do that today. I usually have a pretty sharp mind (not like Sherlock Holmes but more like an average adult) but today I could not make sense of any damn thing. It could also be my iron levels, I was told I was border line anemic, but that was years ago, so I’ve stopped taking my iron tablets. That wasn’t my smartest decision. I started experiencing the symptoms for chronic fatigue, caused by- guess- lack of iron! I’m an idiot sometimes.

Despite my idiocy, I am trying really hard to type this. I have a medium coffee this time, so that’s probably why I’m thinking even a little bit straight.

Great News Guys! Totally off topic but… I went thrift shopping again today after class, and OMG! I found some great 90’s looking clothes that might make me feel better about the fact that I fit nothing in my closet. Its a different style than I’m used to, but hopefully everything fits and I can show you guys what I got! I also got a few books while I was there, I’ll take a picture and post it when I get the chance.

I’m also going to a play today! So I’ll post what it is about after I see it. I’m super excited. The school I go put it together, and my boyfriend has to go to write a paper about it. I’m honestly not complaining, but he is. He hates plays.

Also, if I can, I’m looking to get any extra cash through literature (poem contests, article entries, etc.) so if you know of any, please let me know! I’m very much interested. I’ll of course ask if the website is trustworthy, and all the details, but please if you know of anything let me know. Because, I am a broke college girl and I’m trying to save up for a Nikon DSLR camera bundle with an extra lens and camera bag. So PLEASE! I am begging you, fill me in! Otherwise, I’ll just google on my own. And nothing good comes of that.

P.s. there are some kids in my favorite coffee shop that remind me too much of my group in high school. We were so freaking annoying.
