Sleep

My lack of sleep has slowly begun to impact my schoolwork. We are barely into the second month of school and my sleep debt is already beginning to pile up and I'm missing classes. My first class is at 10 o'clock everyday; English on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday; and Math Discussion on Tuesday and Thursday. For the first few weeks of school I had no trouble waking up early, showering, and going to breakfast at the diner. I rode my bike to class and made it to my classes with time to spare. However, after several longs nights of putting off my homework and not finishing until 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning, I began to choose sleep over breakfast. Then I began to chose sleep over being able to take my time in my room. Then I began to chose sleep over....class. 

So far I have missed 2 English classes and 2 Math Discussion Classes. Also, I've missed 3 Chemistry classes and a Chemistry Discussion, choosing to go back to my dorm and take a nap. However, I often look for excuses not to go to Chemistry as do about 100 other people in that class. 

With the exception of Chemistry, I actually want to go to these classes. When I wake up at 10:30 or 11 o'clock, I'm extremely frustrated with myself. "Damnit! I did it again." I've slept completely through my alarm twice, forgot to set it twice, and just knocked it over and not bothered to get up and get it once. It's possible I'm just not a morning person to extreme proportions, but if I go to sleep earlier my problem will most likely be solved.
