Sleep

Sleep.

Okay, are there any of my fellow insomniacs reading this?

If so, then you understand.

It's not as though I don't try to sleep.

I just can't sleep.

I get in bed at about 9 or so.

Then, I try to sleep.

I fail at that, so I draw, read, write, listen to music, whatever I have to do to pass the time.

When I finally just can't keep my eyes open anymore, I put in my earbuds and listen to my boys One Direction until I finally fall asleep.

At 4 AM.

On school days, I wake up at 6 AM.

Do you see my dilemma?

I mean, I'm going to high school next year!

And something tells me I'm not really going to be able to succeed with 2 hours of sleep each night.

And if I don't keep my grades up, there is NO way I'll be accepted into the uni of my dreams.

And I've tried sleeping medicines.

They don't really work on me.

I mean, yeah, I get fairly decent grades here in 8th grade w/ 2 hours of sleep,

But high school is much more taxing.

And much more stressful.

4 years isn't such a long time.

Then, it's off to uni.

So, what am I going to do?

I'm getting so tired (lol pun intended) of walking around, half awake every day.

And I want to sleep.

But, like I said, I just can't.

Oh well, I guess I'll try and figure something out.

Later, mates.
