In life, you meet many different people —especially in college. You meet those who love sleep more than anything and those who could care less about sleep. Some people are addicted to video games or Netflix, but I am addicted to sleep and 100 percent proud of it.
My day is filled with numerous activities, but in order to get all of them done, I must get enough sleep. But what is enough sleep? The amount of hours various for each person, but for me and those sleep-lovers, it is 10+ hours. Yes. Ten or more hours. Some people revolve their life around activities they enjoy, and I do, too! My activity just happens to be sleeping.
I always stumble upon people who question my passion for sleeping. They always say, "you can't sleep your life away!" And that may be true; but in order to enjoy life, sleep comes first. For those of you who enjoy sleep as much as I do, I guarantee this list will be relevant to you.
