Do you ever just feel like completely exhausted. Not the physical type of exhaustion, but the mentally drained type. I felt physically, mentally and emotionally drained yesterday after I came home from school. I had made a 45 minute drive to UMSL and back both ways. I got stuck in traffic and on top of that I had to meet my class at a field trip at the Botanical Gardens. So after like 3 hours of driving, I just felt super tired and frustrated. To add onto that I had also taken two tests that day so my brain was just done working overall. Long story short, I got to the Botanical Gardens and I walked up to the front desk. I told the lady that I was there with a class, and she simply handed me a map and said, “Yeah they headed upstairs about 10-15 minutes ago. Here’s this map, maybe you’ll be able to find them somewhere up there.” So after what seemed like 5 hours (AKA 20 minutes) of constant walking I was finally able to find my class. We visited the Chinese and Japanese Gardens. I was wearing a long sleeve shirt and jeans (bad call on my part) and it was starting to get hot so I was very uncomfortable. When I got home I literally flopped onto my bed and decided to close my eyes for 30 MINUTES. Nope, I fell asleep for 13 hours! I want to say I went to “bed” around 6:00 PM and I woke up super confused at 1:00 AM, but don’t worry! I fell back asleep instantly! Then I woke up at 7:00 AM! Woo! Time to go to school! Moral of the story is don’t close your eyes for 30 minute naps, you may end up slipping into a 13 hour sleep coma.
13 Hour Coma…
