Mornings

...Are my absolute least favorite thing about life. I hate waking up. I hate seeing the sunrise. I hate the idea of starting a new day. I hate the idea that regardless of how much sleep I get the night before, I still wake up exhausted. I hate climbing out of my bed. I hate the sound of my alarm. I hate knowing that I have to get dressed and go to class. Mornings are simply awful to me. However, I made a little resolution this semester. I decided to wake up 50 minutes to an hour before I need to leave for class each morning. It is ridiculous and most the time I hate myself for this decision. However, it has had some great benefits! I wake up as miserable as ever, but I find myself a much more pleasant person by the time I leave my room. I am able to get ready at a nice pass. I really am enjoying not having to rush in the morning. I have also discovered that The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is on every morning, so I get my fill! I also find myself a tad more awake for my first class than I did when I had rolled out of bed 20 minutes before class started. 

I will always hate mornings, but I am rather proud of myself for this new discipline. Let's hope I keep it up! :)

I am RIDICULOUSLY proud of you!! The more you get used to waking up early the easier it will be :) unless you don't get enough sleep...then it will probably still be torture. haha. But yea, i'm glad you are finally embracing morning routines like I have :)
