I'm Getting Too Old For This

Itachirumon, is it really that hard to beleive that a good student has “no life”? The only life–social or otherwise–I had in high school was my ec involvement. I would have never gone out to a movie when I had homework to do, especially not one that would keep me out that late! In high school, I went to bed at 9:30 on the dot, simply because I was so exhausted.

I didn’t pull a single all-nighter until college. My sleep schedule got screwed up by dorm lights being on all night my first semester than when I moved off-campus and took on 2 jobs, I pulled all-nighters 5 days a week to keep my GPA where it needed to be. I slept on Tuesdays. No classes, no jobs, just sleep.

I’m 23 now and I can’t pull an all-nighter if I tried. DF and I are the couple who will go to a bar with friends, order one drink, pretend to be lively, then give in to our bodies at ~10pm. Not sex. Just sleep. Can’t do it anymore (partying). Too old for it. Look at me: it’s 5am and I woke up an hour ago!! I’m drinking my coffee and watching the first edition news!
