Sleeping, Eating, Breathing

Sep 02, 2008 16:38

I am always tired and ready to fall asleep. Always. Sometimes I take naps, or like today, fall asleep without really planning to and then wake up and realize I have another class reeeaaaally soon. But I still am tired. It doesn't help that whenever I want to go to bed, I end up thinking, "do I have work I should be doing for tomorrow? There must be work I should be doing!" And consequently I stay up for an hour or several, not doing anything productive, just worrying.
My internal clock seems to have shifted, going to bed at 11-12 and getting up at 5:45 no longer works like it did in high school. Now, getting up at 6:30 or 7 seems ungodly and I rarely manage to get to bed before 12-1. Even when I do get extra sleep though, I'm tired, as I said. Hopefully, I'll settle into it.

Class times and DC times are screwing around with when I eat. DC doesn't open until 7:30, and I have Calc. at 8 or 8:30 4 times a week, so a lot of the time I end up having to eat afterward. And believe me, it's not fun to drag yourself out of bed and go to an early class without even having anything to eat beforehand. On two of those 4 days, I have classes again at 12, solidly to 4. So, I have the option of eating a really large brunch, cramming in a lunch right after breakfast, or sitting through more classes without eating and then eating a late lunch/early dinner. Dinner, incidentally, has to be eaten early because the DC closes at 7:30, and the late night one doesn't open until 10:30.
Tuesday is the worst- I have a class at 8 (there goes breakfast!), classes from 12-4 (there goes lunch!) and one from 6-8 (aaand dinner).
I guess what I'm saying is I often only eat 2 meals a day and just try to make one of those extra large, or if I eat 3, they're really weirdly spaced. Today, for example, I ate breakfast at 9:30 and lunch at 11:30. That's two hours apart, people. Oh, and when I'm done posting this, I have to decide whether I want to eat dinner unnaturally early and then rush off to class, or whether I want to wait until 10:30.
I wish I had known about DC times before making my schedule. Better luck next term.

My cough had almost gone away entirely by mid August. In the past week, it's slowly been coming back. Not nearly as bad as before, but: I hate having people look at me like I'm hazardous, and I hate having to explain over and over that I'm not contagious, and I'm not having serious breathing problems or choking, etc.

To end on a good note: I found my notebook! :DDDDD It was in my Lenovo computer case. No idea why, but I'm happy. Also, I went to anime club yesterday, and they were showing Escaflowne. Very generic, very visibly 90s art, but decent. I wonder what happened to the version Fox aired? This wasn't it. Also, a very, very bizarre short called Daicon IV.

schedules, college
