I can't believe this is my third lifestyle post in a row! I barely ever do lifestyle posts, so it's even more weird that I'm doing three consecutively. I guess I just have a lot of stuff to share and say!
With that being said, I'm not really a fan of sleepovers anymore. Last year and before that, I was at a friend's house every weekend or had friends over my house for a sleepover. It didn't really phase me because I loved being with my friends, hanging out with them, and just having fun. However, this year, my whole thought on sleepovers started to change. I don't really like them. I've become really hooked on getting a good night's sleep because no matter what time I go to bed, I always wake up no later than 8:30am.
Some of my friends don't go to sleep until 3 or 4am at sleepovers while I end up passing out by 12 because I get tired so easily. I like being in my room in my own bed where I don't have to worry about my friends being loud or lights being on because when I sleep, I like to have total darkness with absolutely no sound! I still go to sleepovers because I don't want to go to my friends' houses just to leave three hours later, so I just end up sleeping over. I don't mind Friday sleepovers so much because then I get to catch up on any lost sleep on Saturday night. But I absolutely hate Saturday sleepovers because then I can't catch up on any lost sleep before going back to school.
Even though I don't like sleepovers anymore, I'll probably still continue to go to them just so I can still hang out with my friends and have a good time. I'd much rather be in my own bed, though!
What are your thoughts on sleepovers?
My best friends and I have actually gotten to a point where we yell at each other if we keep one another up past midnight or 1 am... We feel like such old ladies but the truth is we all love our beauty rest! We love spending time with one another too, which is why we continue having sleepovers, but the rules have definitely changed since middle school. Pulling "all-nighters" is no longer cool :)
ReplyDeleteThat's crazy! I don't think some of my friends would want to be asleep by midnight or 1am!
DeleteI feel the exact same way! The school week is so stressful that when the weekend rolls around, I go to bed super early and sleep late ;) My friends and I go to each other's house at 7ish and leave at 10:30, ensuring we get beauty sleep! It feels like a sleepover but you get to sleep in your own bed.

That's a good idea! I like sleepovers much more in the summer, but during the school year, I just have to be in my own bed :)
DeleteI hate Saturday night sleepovers too. Usually what I do is invite my friends to sleep over at my house so I can still sleep in my own bed. That way they can either sleep on the other side of my bed since it's pretty big or sleep on the floor. Plus, since it's at my house I can kind of make them go to sleep when I want to. :)
