Get more sleep

...are almost semi-permanent problems.

Instead of trying to get more sleep, I’ve managed to lose more sleep. I’ve drank a couple energy drinks [i.e. Red Bull and Monster] Now that school is also back in session and I find myself taking exceedingly difficult classes, my mission to get more sleep has become hard to accomplish. I feel like I’m drowning…

I can’t stand it. When I need sleep the most it eludes me, hovering in front of me like a wrapped up lollipop on the counter in front of a child.

Earlier I made it a goal for myself to get at least 6 hours of sleep. Now, in the summer I’m getting maybe 3-4. That is 4-3 hours less sleep than I should be getting. It’s terrible and I think I’m developing dark circles beneath my eyes and I’m only a youngster! Besides getting enough sleep or slathering makeup on, how else can I get rid of dark circles?

And it’s true! [For me at least.]

Everyday this past school-year, I’ve been getting about 2 hours less sleep than I used to, which makes it a round 3-5 hours of sleep now. My goal is to just get at least 6 hours of sleep every night.
