Hello there!
I finished up going to all of my new classes today and I have to say I am very pleased with my schedule this semester. I don't really have any class I dislike yet, but feel very excited about all of them! I went to Fabrics today which I think I'm going to love (and would love it even more if it wasn't so early in the morning, eugh). It's a lab and lecture learning from top to bottom about all fabrics. Yawn for most people, but I'm lame and find it interesting. I also went to child psychology and college writing today; both were fantastic! To be honest, I was dreading college writing because although I enjoy writing, I am not one to like papers and such. The professor is literally THE COOLEST one I've ever had though. Seriously, she is my dream professor and I have a major girl crush on her.
Although school and classes are going well, one thing really kind of upset my day. Since I started my OCD medication back in my senior year of high school, a huge side effect is drowsiness. I would come home from high school and sleep for five hours and still be tired when I went to bed. The side effects have still not worn off, even though they are supposed to lessen with time, and I had a rough time last year, as well. I was constantly taking naps between classes just to feel better. I was hoping this year I would be able to cope better, but I ended up sleeping for three and a half hours this evening on accident. It's so upsetting because I feel lazy and like I waste so much time that I could be working. It also makes me so frustrated because I could have been spending that time with friends, making new ones, or just enjoying this time at Kent now that I'm back. Instead I was locked in my dorm sleeping? It's incredibly upsetting to me and I don't want this to be a sign at how the rest of the year will go. Do you all have any good suggestions on fighting drowsiness and staying awake? I would say coffee, but to be honest coffee has the opposite effect on me and makes me even sleepier. Any help would be so, so appreciated!
Hope you all are well. Cherish and love each one of you! x
With much love, Lauren.
