Insomniac
It's funny, for a while I thought I was immune to the powers of caffeine. My friends would warn me not to have a late night espresso because it would keep me up all night.
"Bah", I would respond.
You probably see where I'm going with this - it's late, I'm awake, and writing instead of sleeping.
Being an accounting student means that I don't have to suffer - I just need to open up one of the many accounting textbooks I have lying around and I'll be out like a light in under five minutes.
Unfortunately I've packed up most of my books and lent out the one that I still had lying around to
someone not even in accounting.. I should probably ask to get my book back sometime soon.
Still, I'm not even close to being wired enough to want to dig my other books out. I only had a nice sugary but delicious latte as well as tiramisu gelato. Normally that wouldn't be enough to keep me up. But I stupidly reset my internal body clock to prefer going to sleep at 4 a.m. and waking up at noon.
That's an especially bad idea because I need to keep my body used to the idea of waking up to be in an exam hall by 9 a.m. And that means waking up a good two hours before that time.
Fortunately it'll only take me a day or two to 'reset the clock' back to normal. A good sleep-deprived day caused by my waking up early later this morning will be the key catalyst.
Perhaps the most ironic aspect of my current
inhuman condition is that it's rainy and wet outside - if this were morning I'd want to stay in bed no matter how well rested I feel. Rainy weather makes you sleepy! And yet I'm not.
No wait, ranting about rainy weather
does make you sleepy. I'm done now.
Good night.
