What On Earth
21 Sep 2025 06:00Once a coincidence, twice a pattern?
Okay so y’know how I went on that whole thing about my sleep schedule? I’m gonna go insane because something I’d forgotten about has come back.
Last semester, my sleep had also been erratic as hell. A little bit into the mid-semester break, I got a laptop and my device limits were mostly removed (yes, I’d started uni with time limits… ask my parents, not me). That same night, my sleep schedule fixed itself. At the time, I’d jokingly chalked it up to the joy of being freer. This lasted at least a couple days, maybe the rest of the break, but the change reverted by the time classes resumed. This didn’t happen in the holidays between semesters or after highschool grad, so I brushed it off as a one-time incident.
However, it’s happened AGAIN. Started a day before the break did, but a couple days straight of sleeping before 12am and waking up after 6am with no naps is UNUSUAL for me nowadays! Okay, technically the weekend connected to the break is still up for grabs by assignments (sigh…) but it’s practically the break!!! Why on earth is the shortest break time precisely when I get my act together?!
