Sleeping the day away

Everyone does it. It happens (for most people) every night. But here I am telling sleep to go fall off a cliff because I won't be using it much this week.

I did however take a nap today/yesterday (I really believe that at college, days go from 3am-3am not Midnight-Midnight) and it just seems like such a time suck. Sure I feel better and well rested and stuff, but holy crap there is so much to do. This week I have a physics lab to finish up, calculus homework, and physics homework which are all due on Friday. I think it will take me about 6 or 7 hours to finish it all. Not too bad I suppose. But on the other hand, I have 10 hours of classes (assuming I don't skip or sleep in), 3 hours of pep band, 9 hours for meals, 2 hours for transportation, 2 hours for sports, and a whole bunch of hours up at Birch Hill this week for the ASAA State Nordic Skiing Championship. I'm going to be a wax tech! This will more than certainly eat some more of my time up (probably upwards of 12 hours) and then there is that pesky sleep again. There are only 76 hours left until I board a tour bus and head down to Anchorage for the Governors Cup.

Why must I sleep when there is so much to do?

Other than feeling better, sleep really is not all that productive. I lie there, breathe, and drool. That's it. I could be doing homework, or alleviating stress, or waxing instead with that time! But no, I'll average 6 hours a night on sleep probably just laying there and drooling... Woo.... That is 24 hours down the toilet.

If you do the math, that means there are 76 hours until I leave. Take that 76 and subtract 24 for sleeping, 10 for classes, 7 for homework, 3 for pep band, and 12 for State, 2 for running around, 2 for sports, and 9 for meals. This brings my grand total to 7 free hours in 4 days. Come on now. That means that about 7% of my time this week is free time.

And I really like free time.... It lets me bother Derick, or eat ramen late at night with Elika, or crash on Denali and Ashley's beanbag. Or I guess in this case blog.... I should probably be productive soon... And actually be productive.

So say goodbye to sleep for now!

Bye bye!
