After an intense day of school, horse-back riding class, swimming training and loads of homework, there could be nothing more needed than a a good night's sleep. Why would it be that that's exactly what I can't have? A few days ago, I started having very bad nights, and they are ruining my days! The funny thing is they all follow a very similar sequence:
I first go to bed and get knocked out the instant my head touches the pillow, but then I begin to dream. These dreams however, are not the regular ones I am used to. These dreams are extremely vivid, and make me feel like if I were awake. What happens next is never too clear to me. During the dream (no matter what is happening before), I suddenly feel there is something very wrong, and things start becoming hazy. I become desperate and run, thinking only that I need to fix that problem somehow. But then, I can't remember what the problem was, and then realize it was all just a dream. This situation really drives me nuts! Not only did I fail solving whatever problem the dream told me to solve, but I woke up for nothing, and have to try to go back to sleep. This is very annoying!
These situations are sucking away all my rest, and in the morning I feel like if I'd been awake all night. It's very inconvenient, especially when it comes to staying awake during the first class of the day. I hope my yawning hasn't scared my teachers yet.
Anyway, I have to deal with this soon, because not only am I having bad nights, but my restless sleepwalking is waking up half of my family (That's how violent it gets). My twin (which sleeps in my same room) says that I don't only sleepwalk, but I talk at night. She also tells me that when I stand up, I frantically ask her some nonsense, and suddenly go back to sleep. For example:
"Lu, dou you know when we zzzzzz."
Even in a langauge nobody knew existed.
"Lu, I think erhyostel myortliosta urgenmio zzzz."
My father is another one of the victims. On week days, I'm the one in charge of waking everyone to get ready for school (because I'm the only one who is able to wake up alone at 5:45 AM), so I go to everybody in the house and wake them up. One occasion, I dreamt the alarm clock was ringing, and the bus was going to leave us. I ran to my father's bedroom (he's the one I wake first because he gives us breakfast) and this happened:
Me: Dad, dad, it's time, we are late, wake up fast!
Dad: (half asleep and confused) What are you talking about, it's 3:30 AM.
Me: Oh. But I heard the alarm clock!
Dad: It's not time yet, go back to sleep.
I really hope this doesn't get any worse. Maybe school is giving me too many things to worry about, and they are causing these bad nights. I hope that whatever my dreams are telling me that's wrong has nothing to do with real life. Now that would be really scary!
Maybe I need some vacations. I hope June gets here soon.
