Obstructive sleep apnea

We just spent the past five and a half hours crammed in a little 2007 ford focus. I have an extreme headache caused by my little sister from her obnoxiously singing Christmas music the whole way here. I tried to block it out and put my headphone on and take a nap but just as I got comfortable she would kick me or jab her overly large feet into my back. I would complain to my mom but she would just explain that she has the right to nap just as much as I do. We pulled up to the bed and breakfast.…

I wake to the sound of my alarm at 6am. Opening the floral shades, I find the sky is still dark, the world is still asleep. But why sleep in in a place like Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey when I can sleep in anytime I want at home. Tiptoeing down the stairs, the floorboards creak beneath me.

I pour a cup, take a…

not already afternoon, but the time means little to me. I am still unable to vocalize this feeling I awake with so often. I know only that the prospect of getting out of bed feels insurmountable. I roll under my covers for a few more minutes of sleep, but when I look at the clock again, hours have passed. I collect my books, comb my hair with my fingers, and head out the door trying to convince myself that letting life pass me by is as tragic as it should be. Living with clinical depression…

My alarm goes off on Monday morning around 6:30 AM and I usually turn it off and will sleep until about 8:00 AM. As soon as I get up, I let my dog, Bear, out the front door and go into the kitchen to get coffee. After I have poured my cup of coffee I go into the restroom and wash my face and get my straightener turned on. While my straightener is turned on, I let my dog inside, give him a biscuit or two and pull my hair in a ponytail to do my makeup. I start to put my make up on, starting with…

One interpretation of “The Fall of the House of Usher” is that Poe based it on lucid dreaming. A lucid dream is a conscious state of dreaming. You are awake yet you can see and feel your dreams happening. Lucid dreaming is a very difficult thing for a lot of people to achieve. The house itself seemed to have an air that was dark and gloomy that projected on everything on the land. It had decaying trees, a small still pond, and a grey bleak wall. The house had a crack running from the top to the…
