School Has Messed Up My Sleeping Schedule

Since I am so used to waking up for classes I'm struggling to sleep in for Spring Break.

We are six days into Spring Break and I have not been able to sleep in. Which isn't too bad since on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I don't wake up super early, but on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I wake up at 7:00 for my 8 a.m....his means on Tuesday and Thursday I woke up early for no reason.

Now some might say that since I woke up early I can get things done. However, to that I say; I am on Spring Break I don't have anything to do. The most I have done over break is go to Walmart, Michaels, Costco, and take pictures. I have been primarily been just sitting on my couch with my dog. Not that I am complaining about this.

It has been a blessing being able to just relax with my dog and watch tv. But since that's all I have been doing it'd be really nice to just sleep in a little bit. Although now that break is almost over there is no reason for me to mess up my sleep cycle now by sleeping in. For example, if I could've slept in today that would've been really nice because I was out until about 2:30 last night. I am still very tired, but I know that I won't be able to go back to sleep and coffee won't help anything.

So here I am tired just trying to get through the day...I just realized how stupid that sounded and how other people are tired at work, but again it's my Spring Break and I am just trying to relax. All I hope is that once summer comes along my school sleep cycle won't last too long and I can have a very messed up one that I want. For example, I would really love it if I could stay up late and then sleep in really late the next morning.

I have realized that this article is me complaining about something that is really stupid, but it's something that I feel like a lot of people in school can relate to a lot.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.
