5 Signs You Love Sleeping More Than Living

I sleep as much as I do because my life is much more exciting in my dreams.

5 Signs You Love Sleeping More Than Living

Many of the people who know me know that I can sleep more than I can stay awake on any given day. For some reason, nothing seems to level up to the amount of importance that sleep has to me. For example, if I had to choose between finishing an assignment due the next morning and get at least five hours of sleep that night, I would choose getting five hours of sleep -- simply because of the awesome life that I have in my dreams.

As crazy as my dreams may get, I'd rather live a life full of excitement and mystery, sort of like "Gossip Girl," than do the same thing over and over again in my actual life and have a greater possibility of failing at the important things. Sleeping is my sweet getaway from the daily stress I face and dumb questions that are asked, and most importantly, it's the best part of the morning, afternoon and night time. But here are some ways you can tell if you love sleeping more than life.

1. You tend to mix up your dreams and your actual reality.

Yep, it's totally OK. It happens to the best of us. You're in a conversation and tend to bring up a conversation you thought you had in real life and it turns out it was just in your dreams. Or maybe you thought you did something you should have done, but turns out it was just a dream and you didn't tell your best friend the good chisme you came across yesterday. Honestly, it's happened to everyone at least once .You've been so tired that you unconsciously swayed yourself into taking care of it while you sleep (as if that's physically possible).


2. You have more pajamas than actual clothing.

You've figured out why you never have anything acceptable to wear! It's because if pajamas were a form of acceptable clothing to wear in public, you'd probably be the coolest cat on the street. Unfortunately, they're not. So you have to settle for sleeping in style and blending in during the day.

3. Any free time you have, you nod off wherever your precious body decides to go.

Self-explanatory. #Respect

4. You tend to spend most of your day processing your dreams.

If you feel in anyway uneasy about your dream last night and you can't seem to figure out why certain incidents happened, you'll go back to sleep to get to the bottom of it. Sleep until everything makes sense!

5. While everyone talks about how their day went, you're already planning an outfit, time and position for sleep.

When your friends are shopping fashion, but your on Amazon looking at the fly-est "onesies" on the market because you sleep in nothing but the best of the best. And of course, you'll take a few pics to show everyone how your night went (putting the pajamas on, taking a picture, grabbing a snack, finding out what material your pajamas are made of, comparing your sleep patterns in different pajamas and then of course sleeping).

In all honesty, there's nothing like a good night's sleep. Anyone who loves sleep will tell you right off the bat why they love it so much. Sleep is the first thing us sleep addicts think about when we wake up and before we go back to sleep.

You know how people say birth is a beautiful thing? I guess birth is my sleep. Take what you want from that one.

What other opportunity do you get to be completely paralyzed and then decide when to hypothetically turn it off? It's pretty awesome. Also, sleep is about the only time I actually have control over my life -- you know? The only place where college loans and adult responsibilities don't exist. So for those who are not on the sleep train, don't judge us -- join us! This is the time change your life. Once you start, you'll never see the world the same again.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
