Sleep

by tns

It’s becoming increasingly more difficult to keep a suitable sleep pattern lately. Most days I wake up around 11am or Noon and don’t fall asleep until 3-4am. On some days I’ll wake up early to try and “normalize” my sleeping schedule but I think this has an adverse effect since I end up dozing off around 9pm, but only for an hour or so then after that I am unable to sleep for another 5-6 hours. Even on days when I wake up late, I’ll sometimes just doze off while watching tv or something. I haven’t been biking regularly, although that hasn’t been known to help me sleep, in fact, it has been known to keep me up.

I haven’t been under any known stress lately. I am a little nevous about starting school again in January, but that’s a good bit away and there really isn’t that much to be nervous about.

My eating habits have not changed outrageously. Nor have my caffiene consumption of smoking habits. I don’t have trouble staying asleep so much as I have issues with sleeping and waking up at certain hours. Even if i go to bed early, I’ll sleep until noon.

I haven’t felt entirely depressed lately, no more than your usual everyday woes. By that I mean just the little shits in your head that you mope about every so often. In fact I don’t feel depressed lately at all about most things. You could even say I feel slightly optimistic. However I am not familiar enough with optimism to dismiss it as such. I’d much rather tell you I just try not to get worked up over small shit or that “this is temporary”.

If these sleep habits continue it may not go over so well with classes. I did a pre-registration thing today and got the jist of what classes I’m taking for the semester. I guess by default three of my classes start at 7:30am. Fun. I have a feeling most of my days will consist of me sleeping at 2pm to wake up at 9 or 10, then just waiting till 7:30 rolls around. I have Wednesdays off, right down the middle. I can’t tell if this is a good thing or a bad one.

I’ve also been thinking about moving out to Costa Mesa for a shorter commute. I don’t know as of right now if I can afford it. Plus something is slightly different with moving in strangers in Southern California to me. Maybe it’s just me, I’m not sure. If I’m lucky I can find someone who’s looking to move to Orange County that I know to a certain degree. Or not, depending on my current commute time it may or may not matter at all.

We will see…
