I want something, but I don't know what that something is.

That's a mood

I have another math test (My teacher loves them) due in 3 hours and I'm totally googling the answers. I feel like crap, but I have to work tomorrow (Gots dem bills to pay) and I finally got my mom to let me go to a few caches tomorrow and I really want to go, so I pray, please lend me your strength and I shall do my very best to repay all who do

What kind of math?

Its technically college math, which is a combination of everything and I totally failed it. And the thing that hurts me a bit more isn't the fact that I failed it, but the fact that my mom just straight up got pissed at me and scolded me for not doing better when I am trying my absolute best and I know for a fact that if my brother came in saying he failed a test, then she would hug him and comfort him and tell him that she will email the teacher and all the annoying parent stuff, and knowing that just hurts a lot more

It is painful to not have support from those that we love. Honestly, I think that it's disgusting that school/college students are put under so much pressure by their parents and society to always aim for As and Bs; that, as you know, can and does play a mighty toll on mental health which then affects physical health as well. Note that I'm not saying that people shouldn't aim for that, just that there are prices to pay. Right now all that matters is that you know that you have done your best!

(I lucked out and got parents that said as long as I was passing that they didn't care.)

Are some of us somehow managing to get on a sleep schedule?

2:33 in the morning eastern time. Not tired. Kinda bored.

Whoever came up with the whole "humans can't average four hours of sleep a night AND have perfect skin" idea is clearly a psychopath. Thank you and goodnight.

Whoever said humans had to get at least eight hours of sleep to function correctly is clearly insane.

i havent slept in 5 days :)

what- what's sleep? i'm jk but honestly, i spent most of my spring break not sleeping because from 8pm-ish to 6am i'd be watching netflix, then i'd try to force myself to go to sleep which usually just ended up with me laying in my bed for an hour and a half until my dad gets home and i get up and act like i just woke up :)

My friend just called me the most contradictory person they have ever met

I spent most of my spring break not sleeping

same, and i couldn't sleep for shit last night because i'm sunburnt as all hell and any way i try to lay is painful :)

So, I had to get up at like 3am yesterday because my dad had a foot surgery and the place he was getting it done was close to my friends house, so I ended up waking up, getting ready for school (Which I had to look fancy for) where I had 2 presentations, a mock trial and a mock interview. It was at school that I consumed copious amounts of caffeine. I then had 2 different club meetings I couldn't miss as I am part of the presidency. I got home at 6 and did a bunch of homework which I am not done with, got my dad situated as he came home from surgery, made dinner, relaxed for 10 minutes, did dishes and cleaned up (My mom had been at the hospital all day and didn't sleep at all yesterday so she was passed out). I finished more homework and then gave my father his 50 medications before coming upstairs where I am now exhausted but can't seem to fall asleep.

That sounds exhausting!

Thanks to the cold that I have and am recovering from I slept most of the day, thus I am not tired.

My brain when I'm tired can jump from something intelligent like "It's so unfair that Alan Turing was convicted of homosexuality and lost security clearance at Bletchley Park" to something strangely deep but still weird like "The inside of Corpse Husband's cottage in the woods is orange, from the fireplace. Weird shadows on the walls from things floating in jars." to something completely unintelligible like me literally saying "Karl" then giggling

Sleep deprivation tends to have that effect on people.

This is what I'm currently doing.

Also, Corpse Husband rocks!

This is what I'm currently doing.

I got my tabs mixed up and changed it to what I actually wanted it to link to! 😅

I'm sorry, did I just find people of my kind?

"We're all mad here."

so proud of my cousin
decides to sleep at 1 am
actually, that's pretty bad for a six-year old

Insomniac in the making.

I hate it when I don't understand the title of a book that I'm reading.

So, how're things going for my fellow sleep deprived/insomniacs?

life's pretty tiring, but do our bodies let us sleep? no. i was gonna try to take a nap on saturday but then my mom got home and told me we were going to run some errands so that didn't work out.
