count the tiles upon the ceiling

past 3am and i'm still far from sleep,
this is a habit that i can't break.

so my sleeping pattern has been fucked since summer started 4 months ago; there's less than two weeks until school starts up again and i'm still sleeping at 8 in the morning and waking up at 3 in the afternoon. with my mondays and tuesdays starting at eight in the morning plus a 2-3 hour commute i'm SCREWED.
i've been trying to rectify my sleeping pattern by going to bed early - it's lights out from 11-12ish - but i end up just tossing and turning until the sun comes up. i'm so used to sleeping at that fixed time that i'm literally wide awake in the evening, and the bad part about it is that since it's so late at night there's nothing else for me to do but waste time on the computer watching youtube videos and stalking people on facebook. when i actually go out my eyes are like, burning from the sun because i haven't seen it in so long. shit, i'm turning into a vampire!
and then i try the ol' 'stay up a day or two and you'll fall asleep in an instant' trick but i end up sleeping at noon and that just fucks up my pattern even more. this is impossible, really - especially when i'm starting at a new school (fuck you uft, here's to hoping seneca will be better) and i have absolutely no idea where any of my classes are - i'm relying on jay and taylor to tell me everything, haha.
i'd love to get some music on during the night but it'll be hard since everyone's sleeping -_- i've had so many bouts of inspiration lately, especially since i just went to the blink concert on sunday (greatest concert ever, and that's saying something 'cause i've been to a lot already) but the only time i'm awake is when everyone's sleeping, which means i can't play my guitar =( damn you sleeping pattern, DAMN YOU! this is horrible seeing that taylor's been impatient with me for the few days - i promised him i'd show him the new songs so we can practice them on sunday but no, i can't practice 'cause everyone's asleep when i'm awake. ugh. horrible.
i need some drugs to knock me out, asap. even gravol isn't working anymore.
