My foot is a woodpecker

I have discovered something highly amusing about my mother's workplace. So, under her desk, there is a thing that looks like a ramp. If you move it up and down with your foot quickly it makes a sound not unlike the sound of a woodpecker. I think it is very funny but I'm not sure about what my mom thinks. She seems not to like it since it disturbs the people working.

I am very tired. Even though it's a day off from school, my mind still thinks it is school so I woke up before 8 am. -_-;; I tried to get back to sleep, but of course the sun is shining through the windows. It's my bad luck that the bedroom happens to be in that direction. (East?) I should get some nice curtains like the ones in Las Vegas's Venetian hotel. At least it kept the sun out so I could catch some Z's.

Not only that, but I do have some homework. Yesterday, due to my bad memory I forgot to pack my binder for school. Luckily I managed to survive the day without it, but unluckily I got a pretty bad score on my most recent math quiz. 26 out of 32 means ouch for your grade. In language arts we're making diaries about an animal. I picked the dolphin. After all, it was my favorite animal beginning from second grade when I first read a book about it.

I still need to color all the pictures for my diary and type of the text. It will take some time so I suppose I can't have the nice four-day weekend I was envisioning. (Monday is Memorial Day). C'est la vie, I suppose. Such is life.

Need...more...sleep...

Every day it seems like I get more and more exhausted. I feel like I didn't sleep last night even though I'm sure I did. (I was so tired that I didn't wake up on my own like usual. I had to be dragged out of bed due to my not using alarm clocks.)

It's effecting my athletic performance. At school I can't run as fast as I used to. My mile time has gotten considerably worse...Not far from a minute slower. A real shame since I used to have a mile time just short of 8 minutes. But now it's gone back to old times like 8:45. D: And I usually feel refreshed after I finish a mile. This time it gave me a headache. Luckily, it passed, so I didn't throw up. I dunno what to do. I can't fall asleep early, so I'm kind of stuck.

Even at home...I am painful when I wake up, and when I play Wii Fit on the Wii. Normally I only have mild aches, nothing to worry about, or merely pull my muscles from working too hard. But now my knees are stiff and wobbly and my back hurts too. (Probably because of my worsening posture, but still.) And I feel thirsty more, and hungry less. Like an old person.

Earlier I know I was complaining about my apparent aging. But maybe it's getting worse. Maybe I ought to see a doctor.
