So today has kind of been a blah day. I didnt have any classes today so I slept in.. and it felt very good :) OH but I made an interesting discovery today in this book my roomie has called "Educating Ourselves: The College Woman's Handbook." It a very long book but it has the answers to any questions you could ever dream of.. very helpful! SO me n my roomie tawwra do not have any motivation or concentration whatsoever. And we feel really lazy and we just want to stay in bed all day where its nice and warm bc we hate the coldness outside. Good news people! According to this book we have SAD: Seasonal Affective Disorder. Isn't that great? This is what it tells us :) : "If come every fall when the temperature drops and the light fades, your mood drops and your energy level fades, you're unable to concentrate, have no energy, and tend to sleep too much, you may have seasonal affective disorder (SAD), and you are not alone. SAD, the aptly acronymed malady, causes 15 to 25 million Americans to feel blue in the winter months, and women are four times as likely as men to be affected by the disorder. It's not known exactly why people get SAD, but it's thought that it may be related to the hormone melatonin, whose secretion is affected by light." ... interesting huh? We thought so! haha but yeah so nothing really happened today.. got these cool glass crystals made that etched our picture inside the glass - very cool!, actually went to the library with tara to do some work - not very cool!, and now i'm just chillin.. avoiding some homework that i have left to do. lol so i guess i will try to do that.. g'night everyone!
