Sleep Tight . . .


So I have a problem. I can’t seem to get enough sleep. It doesn’t matter what time I fall into bed at night, I am asleep within 5 minutes, and when my alarm goes off I am still tired. I always have mints in my backpack to suck on during classes to help stay awake, but often times I still find myself doing the head-bobbing thing (much to the amusement of those sitting around me, I am sure!) It took me forever to read the last Harry Potter because every time I sat down to read I would fall asleep. And since I have been home I have fallen into the habit of falling asleep during movies. It’s so frustrating, because these are movies that I have wanted to see for a really long time and yet I just sleep through a good chunk of them (Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Stardust and Cars just to name a few) Last night I fell asleep during Night and the Museum, and now I am WAY confused about the whole storyline! I have only stayed awake during one movie since returning, and that was quite the battle! And before I served a mission I almost always had very vivid and very real dreams. 5-6 nights of the week I would be able to remember what I had dreamed the night before. Now I seem to dream a lot less, and they are generally not coherent even if I can remember them! What is going on here?!? Anyone else struggle with constantly drooping eyes?

Maybe you have mono? Are you always tired all the time. If so I would go to the doctors and have a test done.

Heheheh, no, I don't think its Mono. I think I just never caught back up on sleep after the mission :)
