I need to fix those. My sleeping habits have died, extremely so. I don't even sleep enough to keep me going through the day and when I do, I have nothing of my day left.
Well, last night I was writing here, but regardless I have spent too much time playing video games and writing useless stuff on random pieces of paper.
Anyone have that problem?
You're playing an amazing video game and the time just flies away and next thing you know it's past three in the morning, or worse, it's already day break.
I'm too lazy and cheap to buy the newest game out, and since I like beating all my games in every level imaginable I spend a lot of time playing them to begin with.
I like to read too, so I spend a lot of time doing that as well, people don't usually understand the beauty of sitting down with a good book (even if you end up reading some smut novel) and just pass time imagining life as one of them. Living inside a book seems a lot easier than real life, regardless of how crappy the book is there's always a passable ending, unless of course you're reading one of those memoirs in which the main character dies, or it's told from the perspective of an already dead character.
I just finished reading "Thirteen Reasons Why" and I have to admit that while the book was interesting and captivating, I did not want to live inside of it. I would rather be the dead character than those she left behind. I guess there is an ugliness in being left behind. I've experienced that, and the book resonated within me. It left me to wonder what role I had in the death of those around me, or what role I played in their life. Books meant for teens don't usually get to me, but this one left me wondering.
It also made me think what would our society be like if instead of sparkling vampires, movies were based on books with some meaning behind them? I do admit this book might be a little too much for a movie that targets teenagers, but still, maybe our teens would think twice before doing the things they do. Or maybe not. Who knows right?
More than video games, books take away my sleep. I hate putting a good book down so I always end up staying awake until far too late reading these things.
But it makes me who I am, and maybe my personality would be way different if I got sufficient sleep. Who knows?
