Oh joy for car shopping.

So as I enter my second year in college my dad FINALLY realized that its time to get the forgotten child a car. Why i say forgotten child you ask? Well. Everyone in my family (yes everyone including my YOUNGER brother) has a car...except me.
So say my sister has to work, my mom works, my dad works, my brothers out. I get stuck at home. Without a car. And yeah I do share with my sister, but hey everyone wants their own!

So finally my dad agreed to get me a car by the end of summer before I move back to duluth to go to school, which is September 3rd by the way. Its August 24. He doesn't have that many days left...

Well so now we finally started to go car shopping, except on Sunday. Car dealerships are closed on sunday, so you can just drive through and look.

Except most of the car lots look like this, because they are full of the "Cash for Clunkers" thing.There just all these really crappy cars parked really closely together.
And then beside them finally we reach the, yes you guessed it, USED CARS!!!!!

I am very thankful that my dad has offered to buy me a car actually, and he has offered me a decent price cap on cars. I think its about 9,000. Cheer cheer. I am happy.

Anyways, these last 2 sundays we have been looking at dealerships and I have found a few that I like. At one point we walked passed one of these:A mini cooper, incase you didn't know what that is. Well anyways we walked past one and my dad said "OOH! Look at this! You like this?"
I reply, "Yeah I guess its alright."
And I guess that instantly means that I really want one and enjoy it a lot? Because he started looking for better deals on them. Then today he asked me if I would like to get one, I said yeah I don't know there alright. And now he thinks I hate them.
My father is the most confusing person I have ever met.

I mean I guess these coopers are alright, but I'm not sure. I would just enjoy any car in the least. Ha.

A quote from my dad to end this post, "Any young man that saw you in this car would think it's a very sharp car!"

Ohhhh, dad. :)




P.S: Update on the sleeping project. I of course didn't follow up on thee water project, but I havent been tired enough to take a nap all day! :) So I must have done something different. Maybe I just kept busy all day.

I searched "Sleep" into a great art website (deviantart.com) and this was one of the top hits.
Cute, and fits the word perfectly.

Goodnight, fellow readers.

New at blogging.

So a lot of people I know have been getting into this whole blogging thing. And I've always wanted to blog, and I thought about doing it and..now I am!

If you have time after reading this you should read some other really great blogs ...
my sisters blog (thats a link.. CLICK IT) its called "I fold omelettes" and it's really interesting.
you should also read my sisters boyfriends blog I also think thats a great blog.
SO read them both...and mine :)

Anyways I think I should explain the title of this blog, well lately all I do is sleep. Seriously, I work like 3-4 hours a day...then come home and sleep. Yeah I guess that makes me sound kinda lame...but see I do go out and do things with friends but I'm just tired when I'm with them!
Like today for example, last night I went to bed at midnight and woke up around 9:30. Thats roughly 8 to 9 hours which is the recommended dose! Anyway, I woke up and went to work. I worked until 2 and then I went car shopping with my dad.
The entire car ride, I was just getting more and more tired...to where I couldnt keep my eyes open. Then I got home around 5ish and slept until 7 and now I am writing this.
So why am I still tired?! I ask myself the same question.
So here I some to Google, and search ways to make yourself less tired. I learned some actually interesting things.
One of the things that I might actually try is "Drink enough water"
who knew that water affected your energy level? Not me..
This website claims that drinking less then 8 cups of water a day (the recommended dosage) makes your more sluggish. So me? Yes. I NEVER drink water.
I texted this to a friend and her response: "I'm going to force you to drink water the next time I see you."
Well hey I'm glad someones going to force me!
So I think this next week I will try and drink the recommended dosage and drink lots of water...maybe I will be more awake (:
I shall keep you posted!
Tata for now fellow readers :)
