Late night thoughts

Warning: This post is currently being written at a decently late time at night. Therefore, there may be many grammatical errors and an overall style I like to call "whatever pops into my head at the moment." 

Today was an interesting day. It was a fairly sunny afternoon here in the Bay Area. I started off the morning with something I have been avoiding the entire week. Aka: the gym. Since my car was in the shop, I drove my mom's huge minivan and to my surprise, I loved it. After the gym, I of course went straight to Starbucks. (If you read my last post you would know the drink I ordered. My order: a grande iced chai latte with light ice.) Next I lounged around my house for a while doing extremely random activities.  I hung out with my two dogs, played a board game with my siblings, tried to read a book, went on the Internet, tried to work on this "book" or story idea I came up with last night...etc. The highlight of the day was definitely when my family and I went to the local elemtary school and played basketball. This is where things went south. While trying to run after the ball, I seemed to have outrun it, trip on it and proceeded to somersault and fall three or four times. The result: many scrapes all over, a deep cut on my shoulder and a sprained pinky. For me, this is a big deal because I admit and will always admit that I am a baby and cannot take any pain. I ended the day by hanging out with some friends. Fun fact: Today was "free slurpee day" at 7-11. So we made sure to get a free slurpee. And yes, it was delicious. 

If any of you read that entire thing, you are one brave and dedicated reader. Since this is a "stream of consciousness" type of post, I'd like to ask you all for some tips on how to fall asleep easier. I have always found it difficult to fall asleep. For me, it usually takes an hour or more, which I'm pretty sure is too long. My mind is always racing and won't shut down. Any tips? 

I'm finally becoming more tired now, so I think I'll end the post here. Sorry that this wasn't that interesting of a post. However, I am trying to post every day so  I guess it will have to do. ;) 

Lastly, to those of you who do read my posts, thank you so much. It means a lot!  Feel free to leave any comments or requests. I also love to check out new blogs so please leave your info below!

                     That's all, for now.

  1. For some reason I heard One Direction's 'Night changes' in my head when I was reading your story :p Love that song! Don't you dare apologise! I loved your post! I hope you're not in pain anymore! What I often do when sleep won't come, is read a book. After a while my eyes become heavy and that's when I know sleep has come.

  3. Writing when you can't sleep isn't the best way to go about things, but isn't it interesting seeing what you've recorded down? Do you have a diary? Sounds like a nice day but hopefully your cuts get better. I really want to drive a minivan one day, you know, when I can actually drive.

    1. I used to have a diary when I was younger! Maybe I should start it up again. And thanks! :)
