I’m tired. Or…
November 10th, 2004…Why it seems like getting 1 hour of sleep is worth it and then re-evaluating your decision after getting said hour of sleep and deciding: No Way!
Reasons why it seems like a good idea at the time:
1. You are having a conversation that feels right.
2. You are listening to the rain.
3. It seems only fair that if you are only going to dedicate one hour to writing a prelab, you should only sleep one hour before writing it.
4. You think that it will be easier to sleep over, but you can’t stop talking and just sleep.
Why you know it was a bad idea the next morning:
1. Your stomach is revolting against the binge. It is sick with every step. At least you hope this is because of the lack of sleep and not because you are actually coming down with a cold.
2. You get on the early bus and actually talk to people because you overhear their conversation and you have poorer judgement than usual because your head is in a fog. Plus they are stupid and you want them to shut up so you tell them that this IS the early freaking bus and to buy a damn bike if you have a 7:30 class next quarter. (I didn’t really say that… except I did confirm that we all were on the early bus).
3. You sit at your desk and write this post instead of doing the prelab - the whole reason you only got one hour of sleep!
4. You sleep through 10 minutes of your alarm and hope that you didn’t wake up your neighbors.
