I don't usually get many calls.
But somehow - last night, when I decided to turn in early, a ton of people kept calling me.
Anyway, I finally turned my phone to silent and konked out a little before 8pm.
This morning, I feel totally different.
I know I have a massive sleep debt.... chalked up from my nocturnal singing days, and the recent onslaught of work and socially-brimming activities... all of which I enjoy.
But let's face it - I'm not 16 anymore.
I need my rest.
And when one has to be up early and handle kids for hours non-stop the entire morning... well, let's just say that patience wears thin faster when you're sleep-deprived.
Honestly, the first thing I did when I woke up this morning was to look at my face in the mirror.
Hahahaha... why?
Cuz I wanted to see if people could see a difference between sleep-deprived Shimona and well-rested Shimona.
And true enough, my skin looked better, my eyes not so tired... and best of all - I could actually register what I was seeing. Heh.
Despite being an owl by nature (I get much of my creative work done in the wee hours of the morning, and I absolutely love nighttime), I am trying to sleep at least a little earlier now.
Here's to many more good nights' rest! :)

Hahaha! I can identify with this sleep deprived thingy. I CAN choose to sleep early but the thing is I DON'T want to put myself in bed too early. Result is it drags sometimes till midnite! How rediculuous...But as you said, there is a lot of difference on your skin when you get enough sleep. Your happy self will be even much more happier too! :) Yay to you! :)
yeah i know! It's just too tempting to stay up right???
But as I once emphasized - Teachers have no choice - MUST sleep early! :p
