just some notes of today:
despite it being crappy, since I woke up late >>;

- wore my hyotei jacket to work today, and after inspection, the comments I got were "You're really cool to me now" (hayley) and "wow, you're really special" (chase)
hahaha I should bring more of my sewing to work..

- watching doc footage, and it was like, pretty funny...cuz they're kids...one kid was asked "so why are you here [at the YMCA] instead of doing something else?" (for exercise) and the kid was like "well, i could be playing baseball right now...but instead I'm here, and I can be on TV!" lolz.
and it really makes me wanna work out.

- I was talking w/ the internship ppl in our class that we had today, and one guy was like "i get paid" and i'm like WUT i wanna get paid!! i didn't know...and the the guest speaker came in, and said that talking about salary was one of the 3 hardest things she had to do when getting into the work world DD: but i managed to mention it to my intern supervisor, and she was like OH sure (since it was kinda included before) so yay mebe more pay? :D

yesterday, i did a study on my sleep schedule with Linda...and why it's so messed up >.<

btw, if my parents knew...they'd kill me. well, not really. extremely disappointed.

So it probably all started in high school, where I would sometimes start sleeping at 1 instead of 11 or 12...but I had to wake up for school at 6:30 to drive to school (as I started living far away). At first, it used to be my sister drove, and I slept in the car, but it turned into me driving when Rachelle left for college...the ill effects were that when I woke up and was driving to school, I would kinda fall asleep on the road. Pretty bad...
Avg hrs/day: 6

So i get to college, and since I progressively chose later classes, mebe like 10, 11 AM...so I slowly started sleeping later, and later...when Angela was my roommate, it turned more like she wasn't around, so I did stuff with all the lights on, and Fresh Prince of Bel-Air on at Nick@Nite...until I didn't hit the bed until about 3, then 4...then 5...
I'm sure I irritated Catherine a bit, but since she kinda shut down about 2, I would finish up in about 2 hours and sleep at 4ish, 5. She saw me napping a lot, so I probably seemed like a lazy bum, haha...
I survived these college years pretty well, and people didn't really notice that I slept late, so it was okay..
Avg hrs/day: 5-6, +1-2 hr naps

But around last semester, after I picked up my job, picking a class at 11 actually meant I couldn't really work in, uh, work, into the afternoons, and it made more sense to use my sister as commute in the mornings. So I had to go to work 8-10 AM, every morning. It wasn't bad, but I didn't kick my habit of sleeping at 4, 5 AM...so I napped as often as possible. But sleeping at 4 till 7 is only 3 hours, and only getting like a 2 hours of napping time a day.
Avg hrs/day: 4, + 2 hr naps
People started saying that I look really tired..

During the summers and weekends, tho, for all this, I would sleep about 8-10 hours, or more, if possible, a day....

just this summer, since I started work...I work at 8 AM, so I wake up "at 7" (meaning, I wake up 7:30 and is 5 minutes late to work >>;) and go to internship afterwards at 3...until about 7 pm (get home at 8) So when I get home, there's ten million things I want to do...eat, cosplay, website stuff, other side jobs...
So I don't get to nap. I was sleeping around 4 AM.. (i'm averaging, sometimes I'll sleep at 3, or 5...so)
This is when I just start feeling like...not good...like all the time.
Of course, this has only been the past 2 weeks, since I tried cramming in more hours for a longer weekend to travel home, and also have only been at my internship for 2 weeks. before, I would take naps...like 3 hr naps...but for the past week or so..)
Avg hrs/day: 3

ya...that's not good. my productivity levels aren't very high (specially if i'm writing this now, lolz)

anyhow.
I mention this, cuz last night I went to play some racquetball, and hung out w/ Linda and Gene, but I ended up staying and sleeping over at...11:30 *gasp* so that's almost 8 hrs of sleep on a weekday.
I need to try and do that more often. Stupid internet.

omg, today was crazy.

we basically ran around like idiots and had a lotta fun...
the best was the jumping pose. We could not stop laughing while doing that. But awesome.

can't wait to get photos (i'm loading michael's right now..)

t was me, joy, natalie, ashley, kristin, cayman, shawn, michael, and jon scott >:D had a lot of fun, hopefully the ppl not cosplaying was bored...but at least those cosplaying, i think we had a ton of fun >:B

So we actually DID get into the model homes...the people let us! So nice! We used cayman as bait...he entered alone and asked to do a photo project, and cayman is very, very good at convincing people easily. it's like he has a thing that makes everyone's defenses go down.
two model homes, and it was pretty interesting...some ppl came and went, i hope we didn't make too much of a disturbance..

...joy left the deathnote in the place -_-... but we got it back! RAWR joy D:< lol naw, s'ok.

we went to Brazos park for a bit before we decided to go to town center...take pictures in the Marriott...no one cared...and we got w/ daren and lily, doing balloons cosplay...then to eat, then dulce, then barnes and noble..

i'm a bit tired to think of specific things, it was all around just a lotta fun >:D teehee. must do again!
