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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
