Goodbye darkness and hello longer days.
It’s Daylight Savings Time this weekend, which means Spring is right around the
corner!
I just wish I didn’t have to lose an
hour of sleep in the process.
Grandpa says I’m supposed to look at
the positives. Like how an extra hour of light in the morning means I can go
for a run before school starts. Or, how Daylight Savings is the perfect time
for Grandpa to check the batteries in all of the smoke alarms and stuff
throughout the house – since he’s changing the clocks anyway.
But while Grandpa is preparing for
Spring this weekend, I’m gearing up for the inevitable Monday morning
grogginess.
Our health teacher gave us these three
tips on how to avoid walking like zombies next week.
1. Reset our clocks and on Friday night
and use Saturday to test out the new schedule. (Yeah, right.)
2. Exercise, since working out gives
you energy, makes you happy (most of the time), and helps you adjust to new
schedules.
3. Don’t take long naps.
3. Don’t take long naps.
Er, maybe I should give this list to my
Dad. He’s not a couch potato – except on Sundays, when Mom often finds him
snoring as a hockey game blasts on the TV.
How about you? Any tips to avoid
falling asleep in class?
Gotta jet! Or maybe that should be G-o—t---t---a J-e—t!
