Wednesday 10th August 2016, 7:00 am, Litchfield National Tourist Park, NT I sit up and look around me, everyone else is still asleep besides Mrs Fitton and Miss Barr. Emma starts to stir and wakes up looking confused. We both sit for a while before deciding to go jump on Lauren and Georgia. We sneak into their room to find that they are already awake. We jump on them anyway. After a few morning giggles, Emma and I grab ourselves a bowl of cereal and sit down on the couch. I wash my bowl and get dressed

With the completion of the sleep log assignment, I have been able to pinpoint patterns in my behaviors right before falling asleep, which has influenced my sleep pattern and mental state upon waking up. I was also able to create my own behavioral modification program, as a way to change my own negative behaviors, thus improving my sleep environment. It is recommended that you should eat your last meal or snack three hours before you intend on falling asleep. The busy environment of college life has

It was late at night before I was finally put to rest. I was looking forward to a good night rest before morning came again and I was put back on for another long days walk. I was tucked all snug and warm in my humans closet. It was dark and cozy but I knew I would not get to rest for long. I was woken up by the sounds of feet walking by and then a light was turned on. I went through this routine day after day, so I knew what to expect. I was not wrong. There were several other pairs that lay beside

out of the house with toast dangling from your mouth, or are you casually driving to school in the front of your mother's shiny new van, ten minutes early? Schools across America have been starting school later, so kids can get in that extra hour of sleep. Other schools have kept the usual schedule of starting class at 8:00 am. The starting time for schools shouldn’t be delayed because of transportation, kids after school activities, and the cost. To start of, the schools transportation system would

Tubby's adventure to the Wizarding World 0.2 I woke up in a dark damp room. I stared at the gray ceiling now covered in whipped cream and red kool aid stains. The room smelt like rotten bananas and birthday cake toothpaste. Also what was on my face? My clothes were covered in egg whites and whipped cream.Then everything hit me at once. First of all I was in the bathroom.The bathtub to be specific. Second of all I am at my friends house and we had a kool aid fight. Then I decided to bathe in egg

Thousands of people wake up every day to the sound of an alarm clock. This sound is definitely dreaded by a vast majority of people. Some of the people who hate this sound the most are teenagers and adolescents. They never seem to get the amount of sleep that they need. After barely making it out of bed, everyone has their own morning routine, like washing up, getting dressed, eating breakfast, or even doing last night’s homework. Then comes the race to make it to homeroom before the bell rings.

Once upon a time, I was on the road to the not-so-great land of Tennessee. Where there was a horrendous drive from my house to the two thirds point of the fantastic cheapo hotel. Ultimately, the first room was on the first floor and ant infested, so I’m going to let your imagination run wild there. Next, the new room had beds that were slightly larger than a twin bed, which my sister and I had to share (She took 9/10 of the bed and I got the corner). Nevertheless, I was saved when we got right

Neither of them could sleep that night. When Amelyn was finally finished with expressing her deep passion for Otus, she lay on her back, gazing at the ceiling; Otus did the same, yet his eyes lay closed. After having his bottom lip begin bleeding due to the woman next to him, he yearned to pretend she wasn’t there. He yearned to wake up to find the entire day nothing more than a very long nightmare. However, with luck like his, this betrothal was as true as his left hand held before his face. “Have

Mia woke with a start; her sheets were damp from sweat and were tangled about her as if she had been thrashing in her sleep. “Why do I keep having nightmares like that?!” Mia thought anxiously as she pulled off her pajamas in favor of jeans and a T-shirt. She was in Lilly’s house, so she assumed what happened to her was real, including her parents transferring the sickness. Mia sighed. “It’s getting really hard to figure out what really happened and what didn’t,” Mia thought out loud. In the bed

I couldn’t sleep, so I decided to write to you. Okay, I couldn’t sleep because of you. That sounds more truthful. So now I’m grasping at your memory to be “together” in the silence and solitude of this hour. It’s 2am and I have YouTube cranked up to a whisper, playing an instrumental version of “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room” over and over again. I don’t know why that particular song, except that it fits so well in the emptiest hours of the night. And of course, I can’t stop thinking of the girl
