I’ve recently graduated from college (as in, less than a week ago), and one thing they don’t warn you about: your subconscious will be in overload trying to keep you calm after you’ve jumped off this massive cliff in to adulthood (and unemployment, hurrah!) – working so hard that you’ll be exhausted. ALL. THE. TIME. And yet you won’t be able to sleep for more than a few hours for some mysterious reason (it might be the caffeine).
So, Persephoneers, I’m curious: what’s the longest you’ve ever slept? Any particular reason why?
I work 40 hours a week and I can’t imagine how you did it. I would be so tired all the time!
It’s a blur, but somewhere in the ballpark of 20 hours, maybe? When I got back from a school trip to Europe– I don’t think I slept on the plane.
Wow. Yeah, sleeping on planes is hard, for me. I’m going to Europe for the first time next month (woo!!) and I hope the same doesn’t happen to me :/
I think I slept for 17 hours once. I used to work nights and my sleeping habits were beyond wacky. I quit that job three weeks ago and I already feel loads better.
Hopefully I can find a day job this next go around.
Yes. I worked three part-time jobs while doing full-time school plus a part time internship for a while last semester, and that is awful. I could only keep it up for a few weeks before quitting one of the jobs. Good luck in finding a day job!
Yikes! and thanks. :)
