Introduction I'm addicted to caffeine so I guess that pretty much explains why I have occasional bouts of insomnia. But then I also think that I'm a narcoleptic too because I have this habit of falling asleep in the daytime. I have pretty weird sleeping habits. I have no social life to speak of these days mainly because I'm trying to focus more on my job. I realized that I got so caught up in extra curricular activities in the past that I almost forgot that I had a job. I suck at time management which is why I always have to ground my own damn self LOL. I'm a geek. And I admit that. I think I'm more of a left-brained person but I'm a right-brained wanna-be. Artsy fartsy stuff and I have a love-hate relationship. I love art but art hates me. I'm so overly zealous when it comes to campaigning and advocating for causes-sometimes to my detriment. I used to have a day job that I got sick of. I guess I hate routines. Stuff I hate about me would probably include the fact that I am a crammer, though I try so hard not to be one. Another would be that I am a procrastinator, hence the need to cram most of the time. I'm basically a boring person. And oh, I'm a mom now. How surreal.
