Morning Ramblings

I thought today would be an alright day, considering my wet lab exam didn’t go as bad as I thought. With that being out of the way, I’ve now got to focus on the next thing on hand, my clinical medicine mid term 2. Little to say, life right now has been stressful even by my standards.

The reason I’m blogging now is because my rehab 8am - 10am class got cancelled and I’m going for the 10am - 12pm replacement class. Which meant I was supposed to get an extra 2 hours of sleep this morning. So much for the nice day I had planned. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother scheduling more sleep for myself.

Usually I end up getting the same amount of even less due to all kinds of circumstances. This morning’s was cause the leaky toilet woke me up at 5.45am. Usually I don’t get up this early. Thinking that I would get more sleep, I slept later than usual last night.

Leaky toilet or not, I was desperate and determined to get my sleep. Renee must have fixed it cause I recall hearing the ceramic din in the toilet just after that.

Fine. Now I can get sleep, or so I thought.

Next thing I know, I drift off to lala land, dreaming of Wentworth Miller and next I hear this banging sound.

Good grief! What does a girl have to do to get some sleep around here?

I peeked at my tableside clock and it said 6.15am. I had only been granted an extra 30 mins of sleep, that didn’t really count. So I pulled myself out of the warm, warm covers and shut the window to try and block the sounds out. Turns out my neighbour started to hammer something in his yard at 6.15am in the morning and the kids were up bright and early and screaming around in the yard.

I was at my wit’s end. I climbed back into bed, shoved the covers over my head and tried to get a little more sleep before my alarm rang at 7am to get me out of bed. I kept hearing the stupid hammering noise and next thing I know, my alarm rang at 7am. That’s when the stupid hammering stopped. Grateful for that, I thought I’d have a few more extra snoozes, but figured it really wasn’t worth it cause I’m not going to get any sleep at all.

So I dragged myself out of bed and got dressed for uni and here I am.

This is absolutely deranged!

The one day in ages I get to sleep in properly, I get woken up by my neighbour’s handyman work.

Someone please get me some ear muffs or ear plugs or something! I think I’ll lose my sanity if anymore of this keeps us.

Sleep needs aside, since I bought Justin Timberlake’s album i’ve been listening to it non-stop. It’s been quite an experience. But that a story for another day. Right now its off to Rehab lab now. Toodle-o.
