"I could have sworn I just went to bed"

So here I am. It's late and I just recently got back to my dorm from spending the weekend at home in Chicago. Not only have I lost an hour, due to the stupid time change right before arriving in West Lafayette, but I am also going to lose a lot of sleep tonight. Why must college start classes at 7:30am?! I know schools who start at 9am, which is pretty late but come on, at least 8am would be a little easier to wake up for in the morning. I go to a Big Ten school which means I'm going to watch football games. I love my Monday night football and how am I suppose to wake up at the crack of dawn when I just watched a football game until late the previous night? Over and over studies show that students perform substantially better in school even when they get that extra hour of sleep at night. You would think responsible adults would get up early to get to their jobs on time but I'm awake a good hour before my mom is even up for work. I am not at all motivated to solve my polynomial at the crack of dawn when there's dew in the grass, I can't keep my eyes open and people walk into my classroom with slippers on. Speaking of, I'm going to sleep. I slept for over 35 hours this weekend. Yes. See you all nice and late on Wednesday!
