Danger for the College Student

I seriously don't know why colleges even offer 7:30am classes.

When signing up for the semester you think, "sure, why not? Then i'll be able to get all my classes done in the morning!".

The first month is great, you have motivation and the class seems interesting...

and then BOOM!

That little thing called sleep deprivation takes over. Your body

REFUSES

to wake up to your alarm at 5:45 am and even though your mind knows better, you lay there like a log. Not only is missing class a bad thing, you end up feeling great when you wake up and that is worse cause then when that 7:30 class comes around again you remember that wonderful feeling of being well rested.

DANGER FOR A COLLEGE STUDENT!

I have found that the only way to be successful in school is to deprive yourself of sleep, common sense, social life, and add as much stress to your life as possible - cause if the administration thinks we can then we've gotta have what it takes to get the grade. So this morning apart from my body throwing a temper tantrum, i woke up to that 5:45am alarm, threw on some clothes, and went to my 7:30am class...

was it worth it - i guess, do i wish i could sleep in - you bet!

I can't wait till this semester is over.


On the plus side, the crazy utah weather has gone back to looking like spring after a random snow storm ten minutes ago and the flowers are poping up!

  1. I love you. Sorry about the early hour. College is preparing you for having children and getting zero sleep every again. So hang in there.
