Sleepy Time

Napping is both my best friend and my worst enemy. After school, I run upstairs, dive onto the couch, and watch some TV. This is usually the wrong decision.

Slowly, I begin succumbing to the forces of sleepiness. And before I know it, I catch myself as I am about to drift away. This process repeats a few times until eventually I lose the battle.

From a short-term standpoint, napping is great. I get a burst of energy and I no longer feel groggy. Long-run though, it's bad. Napping catches me up on too much sleep; I stay up extremely late as a result. It's seemingly impossible for me to fall asleep at a regular time after taking a nap, because my body is thrown off.

So, if you're willing to handle the repercussions of napping in order to achieve the short term benefits, go right ahead.
