Last year in college I got in to the really bad habit of sleeping like 5 hours every night, which to me is the bare minimum for me to be a functioning human. Now that I have tried to prioritize sleep, I find that I‘m more focused in class and more focused on finishing assignments concisely so I can hit the hay. Lowkey recommend, but I also don’t feel like 6 hours is that bad if that’s working out for you.
but i don't think 6 is that bad though like it's still chill. my dad is really insistent on everybody in our house sleeping enough it's really important to him.
Might sound like the most obvious thing in the world but over the past month i’ve attempted to get as much sleep as possible and it’s changed my life. I thought i could run on 6 hours. I can not. Sometimes you’re an 8 hour person. You need to own that. I am happier, quicker, more positive. Yeah maybe I am missing out on anything cool happening between the hours of 10:30pm and 6:30am midweek. But who cares!!! I am rested!
recently i realized i don’t need as much sleep as i thought i feel totally fine with 7ish when previously i was convinced i needed more in the 8-10 range i wake up feeling tired either way so why not get a few hours back in my day?
Why is this such a lost art? Bring together those friends that would never have met other wise. Make the people you love, love each other. I recently had a small birthday wine n dine with my friends and anticipated awkwardness between my different groups of friends, but it was the complete opposite. God I love my friends and love making a space for them to mingle and laugh in eeeee. I think in a time where my friends and I are transitioning to adulthood and focusing on careers, this brings something to look forward to and a way to create a world outside of work and study.
