I have found that I tend to be much more tired here at BYU then ever before in my life. I find myself wanting to take or taking a nap once a day. Before I would never take naps, I just did not like to ruin my sleep schedule and I just never really was that tired. I hated feeling all drowsy like I do when I wake up from naps. Now I can't help it. I just take naps whenever I feel tired. It may be that proximity in which I live to my bed seeing how no matter where I am in my dorm I can only be up to ten feet away. Combine that with the long nights staying up watching a movie or talking to my roommate and I am gone.
It would be nice if I was not tired so much because I could get a lot more work done. It is hard to work hard when sleepiness is always haunting me. Naps do help a bit, but you lose so much time in the process that probably they do not help much. Also that night I will not be able to go to bed until much later than usual because I will not be tired until later. This will undermine my sleep especially when I have a set time I have to wake up in the morning. Naps are no good, and they have a lot of repercussions for what little peace they bring, but I probably could not get by without them.
I never took naps at home either, unless I felt sick. I prefer to get enough sleep at night and not take any naps, because I have the same problem of not being able to fall asleep at night. Next semester I will have more time to sleep in the morning, so hopefully I won't have to take as many naps.
