Usually up between 6:30-7:30 to be at my internship before 9. On the weekends I usually sleep in until around 8-10.

Wake up at 6 am and go to bed at 11 pm. Consistency is key.

Edit to add: A video about sleep regularity.

u/TheHondoCondo May 26 '26

Tell your mom how much sleep you get during the academic year. Tell her how many of your waking hours you dedicated to class, homework, and studying. You earned your break.

u/Wiley_Burner Purdue May 26 '26

u/imnotporter May 27 '26

u/DueNorth420 May 27 '26

I just graduated last year and when I go home I let my guard down and turn into a bum. You don’t have toy overexplain to your parents :) they just don’t see what you go through on campus and that’s okay!

u/Minute-Shop9447 May 26 '26

If I'm feeling it, 6AM so I can go out and run. Otherwise, sometime between 8 and 9.
