Moving on from being scared, I made chilly yesterday and it was pretty good except, I am not used to making it in such a small portion so it ended up being a bit (A lot!) spicier then I intended, it was still good though after I got over the shock.
And since it was a slow week I figured I would talk about sleep or the lack there of. Professional school students have a hard time letting themselves relax enough to get to sleep. Unless its a unearthly hour of the morning, or they distract there minds enough to fall asleep, the first way is pretty self explanatory you stay up working/studying till 3-4AM in extreme cases 5-6AM this is obviously unhealthy and we should all shoot for at least 6-7 hours of sleep a night, (I am not saying that I get that much sleep every night but I am trying to go to bed earlier. The second has multiple ways off working all with there own unique side effects, for myself I like to listen to a podcast while trying to fall asleep, but I always set a sleep timer and I try to stop and take my headphones out before falling asleep (if the sound didn't stop then my brain would still be listing to it and i wouldn't be as rested the loophole is that if you can listen to your music/podcast, without headphones then you can just turn the volume down to where you can barley hear it however setting a sleep mode up is always a good option). Any who I say all of this just so I can talk about how I couldn't sleep a couple of weeks ago, because for whatever reason my brain was writing a motivational speech, (and let me tell you it's a pretty good one) now I have never given or written a motivational speech before (I have given a lot of speeches just not this kind), and I am still not sure if I was just trying to motivate myself or if I really wanted to brighten my classmates days. Regardless I could not fall asleep right away it would always be 2-3AM before I would finally come to and figure out that I had been laying in bed for four hours, imaging myself giving this speech that I was writing as i went. It was not till four nights of this that I deiced to just give in and put this thing on paper, and since I did I have not had trouble falling asleep, even right before a test when I am stressed I can lay down listen to a few minutes of a podcast and then go straight to sleep.
