No More Camouflage

I have an 8 a.m. class tomorrow. …It’s 2 a.m. and I’m still awake. 

Success! I found a sorority that I really really clicked with. So…super excited. I visit 6 of the 10 tomorrow. Which starts at like…10am. Ugh. 

The downside to rush is that you start it at 4:30 and you’re done at like..9 or 10 (at least the past two days) so you miss the entire dinner shift. By the time you get out, everything is closed.

So…eating some pizza rolls and then going to pass out. So exhausted…

So…I might’ve just had my first psuedo-walk of shame. I say psuedo because it isn’t truly a walk of shame, but it’s as close as I’ve ever been. Question that I ask you all, is would you do the same as what I did?

Picture if you will…your significant other asks if you’ll spend the night. This isn’t abnormal and it’s happened before. You have nothing to do the next day so you figure it’ll be just fine. When you actually lay down, you have trouble getting comfortable. Then, your chest which has already been hurting for the past week hurts no matter which direction you turn in. S.O. is being kind of a blanket hog, but there isn’t another one that you can easily see that you can use instead. Tossing and turning…still not asleep. Then…S.O. almost rolls on top of you, but you squeeze yourself off the bed really quick so you’ll be safe. Then…there’s hardly any room for  you. You realize it’s been an hour and a half since you laid down and you still aren’t asleep. Doesn’t look like sleep is coming any time soon and you kind of want to sleep in your own bed. (Did I mention you happen to live across the neighborhood?) So…you put your shoes on, grab your stuff, text your S.O. that you left to go home, and…kinda slip out of the house. 

To be honest, I feel kind of horrible about it. I’m afraid that he’ll be mad at me…but I’m not upset with him at all. I just really wanted to sleep and it didn’t look like I was going to be able to if I stayed there.

If you were in my shoes, what would you have done? Am I wrong for leaving? 

So I didn’t have my 9am English class today. My first thought? Sweet sleep in until 8:15. But…then I woke up at 7:15 instead. My logic? I wanted to be able to shower, get dressed, and have my headphones in before my roommate woke up so I didn’t have to talk to her… Not because I don’t like her or anything, but because I don’t like talking to people in the mornings. ..I’m nuts.

One of the dogs will not stop growling…which means (since I sleep in the living room) that I can’t sleep. He’s not growling for any particular reason, he’s just doing it to be a pain in the butt (Oscar does that quite a bit.) 

Okay, so last night my roommate leaves because she has to drive her boyfriend to work the next day or something crazy like that. So I’ve got the room to myself for the night. Cool. Awesome. I love that. 

Well, later that night, I get a crazy awful headache (for the 4th time this week) so I try going to bed around 9:15-ish. Well, first I just can’t fall asleep. Then, I can hear my RA and her boyfriend fighting (they’re in the room next to me.) They are so loud that I can almost clearly hear everything that they’re saying. 

Then, it’s 10:30 when they finally stop fighting. Or at least get quieter. However, the girls on my floor start yelling and screaming and running up and down the hallways. It’s like they have a complete disregard for the fact that 10PM STARTS QUIET HOURS AND NOT EVERYONE PARTICIPATES IN THIRSTY THURSDAY! Finally fall asleep for about 10 minutes before they start screaming and yelling and someone bangs on my door for absolutely no reason. Thanks to them, it was at least 1am before I was able to go to sleep.

Roommate comes back at whatever time she came back. Then, I go to my 10am class which ends at 10:50. So I come back to my room and yay excitement. But no…because my roommate is asleep. Last time this scenario happened, she was asleep until I went to my 1pm class. Like…seriously? I’m all for sleep and all but if you’re already awake, then you go back to sleep for 3-4 hours? That just seems a tad bit ridiculous to me. Plus, then I get all freaked out about being able to microwave lunch. So sometimes I won’t eat at all because I don’t want to wake her up.

Today, folks, may or may not turn out to be a decent day.
