You are my sunshine
"Caravan Of Love" is one of my all-time favourite songs. I'm a sucker for a-capella pieces and the video is wacky fun ^^; ...To sleep or not to sleep is out of the question
For roughly a week or two I went without any kind of sleeping aid because I ran out, had a cold and couldn't be bothered to ask anyone else to fetch another batch for me, but also due to a never ending curiosity of how my body will react when deprived of something it's used to. My mom rolls her eyes at me every time it happens (yeah that implicates I do this on a semi-regular basis and therefore should know very well how it makes me react >.>) figuring one day the research will stick in my brain long enough for me to not repeat it yet again.
This particular medication (Attarax) does help me to relax enough to fall asleep within a reasonable time frame and, most importantly, it allows me to sleep uninterrupted through the night. But there's also this side-effect of being weighed down by heavy drowsiness the following day, thus it never quite feels as if I've rested, even with the added nap(s) included in the equation.
Occasionally this drowsiness will drift off into a feeling that isn't too far removed from depression. Which I'm not, nor want to be. Lots of fun things have happened recently, I'm fundamentally really positive and looking forward. There's nothing for me to get in that state for, leading me to believe that the medication might not be worth it.
If I'm to choose between sleep or happiness ... then I'd rather hang onto the happiness and instead look for other solutions to my sleeping problems. Such as getting started at the gym, as well as that internship. Activity, in combination with adjusting when I go to bed (hehehehrm), will probably do me a lot more good than depending solely on a pill.
Watching/Listening to music videos such as the one below this post, which my younger sister linked me to yesterday, adds to the determination not to give up too easily >:D
For some reason it reminds me of Jeh O.o
Snooty of snotty?
I was thinking I would comment on your comments here but with the way things are configured now it might be a hassle? Though, while beginning to reply in the box, it dawned on me that I can't make use of the 'reply' function to everyone individually because you're 'not allowed to make two consecutive posts in a row' or something *snaps fingers* Lemme tell ya, it threw me to realize I'd have to re-write one comment I only remembered half of :-/
Any suggestions on how to tackle this? (commentary comments > world hunger) >.>
Aside from devoting too much time to Photoshop (with varying results) and strolling around in VV Land, I'm slowly getting over my cold! Last night was the first time in almost a week that I slept more than 2-3 hours. With only one pillow to boot! Uninterrupted continuous sleep for the win ;__;
Normally my colds are restrained but then there are times like these ones that wipe me out thoroughly. The nasty effect they have on my brain is unsettling to put it mildly so I'm glad to be rid of the disbandment from reality it causes.
(Aaaaah! It feels so good to fully embrace the wont to sound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world _^_ In other words 'flourished online journaling'.)
The last thing on my agenda is the small matter of better naming my blog here. Despite my [evidently unrequited] love-affair with all things creative, I cannot seem to conjure up a decent (and accurately self-reflecting) title for myself. Though being acutely aware of a certain trait of mine (stubborn, me?) it's safe to assume I'll still probably spend time thinking it over [knowingly or unconsciously] anyway.
But if anyone should be so inclined to divulge what they feel would be a fitting crown to this drama queen, your ideas are wholeheartedly welcomed :3
