So I was in the middle of writing my blog on a topic that interesets me and half way through writing that I could not pass the thought of how absolutely exhausted I have been. I thought about that for a while and then I realized my passion at the moment is sleep, or rather the concern of my lack of it. After working 48 hours/week, being a full-time student, studying, finishing or catching up on essays, and leaving some time for eating and showering I am left with MAYBE 5 hours to sleep, and once i actually fall asleep it probably ends up being 4- 4 1/2 hours.
I read an article awhile ago in the Reader's Digest that I think may be of interest to fellow students. It lists 5 Major Benefits of sleep in an article entitled: Enchance your Life with Sleep. Here are the 5 reasons to get more sleep:
#1- Live Longer and Healthier
#2- Look Better, Feel Better
#3- Be Happier, Less Stressed
#4- Build a Better Brain
#5- Lose a Few Pounds
Here's the link if you'd care to read it:

The article mentions among its benefits better brain function, better skin, feeling sexier, better outlook on life, and less stress! Who doesn't want that? And its free! But Time IS MONEY!! and unfortunately at the moment I don't have the time to waste on sleep! So I guess along with all the other students out there, rest and relaxation will just have to wait til Summer. BOO!!!=(
