NAP JUSTIFICATION:
Right now is without a doubt one of those calm before the storm type moments. I know exactly the maelstrom of projects, taskings, homeworks, and exams that is about to hit, but at the same time I’m so tired that all I want to do is curl up into a ball. These high stress moments are the ones that define for me, and that I remember the most in retrospect of each school year. The lighting is spot on right now, where the winter has deemed today to be one of the shortest days of sunlight in the year; so as Syracuse’s cloudy skys loom overhead, blocking out what sunlight there is left at 3:41 pm, and the new snow from last night’s storm reflects that small amount of sun, I’m left with a perfect hue from my bedroom where the only unnatural light is coming from the Christmas lights hung behind me.
In my fetal ball on my bed I justify to myself that I don’t have that much work ahead, and that I can afford an hour long nap. I take advantage of the clock since all of the work I have depends on the efforts of not just myself, and most of which must be done at other locations. So what’s the point in braving the cold just to sit down, get settled in the lab, then have to turn around again within a half hour? The next thing on my to-do list for the day that I can check off is sleep, so why not bump it up from the end of the day?

I define my life in do-or-die moments. I only have a handful of them that I can list off at any given moments. After talking to DaCourt on Friday, I've been given some inspiration as to how to get some more of those in my life. I just need to find out if what I have planned is right for me.
