Sleep

Confession: Okay, I'm all about sleeping in, but since the semester ended a few weeks ago my sleeping schedule has gotten cuh-razy. Pretty much I have been staying up till at least 3, closer to 5 (:30).

I mean, what the?

And this has been leading me to sleep in very, very late. I'd disclose the times, but I am a bit too embarrassed to say. Especially the time I woke up today. I was horrified when I looked at the time. Whoops!

So any tips to get my sleeping schedule back on time? Try to go to sleep a little earlier and then wake up way early so that I am tired for the next night? I was intrigued by Natalie's post about Trader Joe's Melatonin, but I have been wary of dependence on sleep drugs.

PS. Last night I watched How to Marry a Millionaire. Wayyy cute if you haven't seen it. I'm beginning to fall in love with Marilyn Monroe movies. I may or may not have also watched Gentlemen Prefer Blondes yesterday too.

  1. Hahahaha, I am the same way now that I'm back in the states. It's just hard to wake up when you don't have to go to work or school!

  2. well, I went from working the night shift (9 pm-6:30 am) to being a nanny who wakes up at 6:30 am every day. It was a touch switch I tell you! I found that if I forced myself to get up by 10 every day, at least at first, I could get through the day reasonably well. If I was super tired, I would take a nap, but be careful, don't sleep after 5 pm, and don't nap for more than 20-30 minutes, or you'll just be up late again. :) Good luck!!

  3. Pull an all nighter and then go to bed at like 8. That's the only thing that works for me when I have jet lag or a weird sleeping schedule.
