True Life: I'm Addicted To Sleep
sleepinglittledreamers.com

I can't help it. My bed and I have a special connection that I can't get with anyone or even anything else in this entire world. I feel like my bed is the only one who understands me. My bed is the place where I can lay my head down after a long day at school or work. It's where I can watch Netflix for hours and no one will judge me. You know why? Because it's my bed and my life. Even though I will fall asleep watching Netflix or a movie, no one can say anything.

Most people who know me already know if the TV is on, I will most likely fall asleep at some point. I can't help it. I get tired and get uninterested in the show or movie. Especially if I have a blanket, I can sleep anywhere. It's honestly a problem, and I don't mind it. Some people are like how can you sleep anywhere? My response, it's easy, just close your eyes.

I have been known to fall asleep in the most random places. I have fallen asleep in a movie theater, a parking lot, many different states in the car, on the deck, on and yes even on a break. I know how could one human fall asleep in any of these places. Well, it's because I am addicted to sleep. I love sleeping. It's my time not to think about anything. I don't have to worry about getting in trouble. I can avoid all my problems by sleeping. I can never get enough sleep. I could sleep forever and still be tired.

So, I am sorry if you take me somewhere and I happen to fall asleep. I'm sorry for falling asleep on your couch for hours at a time when all you wanted to do was watch movies and talk. I'm not the greatest at that. I physically can't help but fall asleep in places. I don't have to know you that well in order to crash on your couch. I really don't mind. I think the only place I haven't fallen asleep is in class. I care about grades too much.

I sleep, on average, 15 hours a day, unless I have work because I usually work 10-plus hours. I, for sure, get the sleep I should, well over the recommended amount. I am always tired, though. I know I shouldn't be, but I can't help but feel tired after my 8-plus hour night of sleep. I usually come home and nap. This is a life of a sleep addict. Now that this piece is done, I must take a nap.

Goodnight world, see you tomorrow.

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.
