Cold Hard Sleep


Something that makes me happy?

I’m always happy falling asleep in my room with the door outside open. Let me explain. My room has a sliding glass door that leads into the backyard. There are two layers to the door. One is a netting while the other is a glass door. (I think this is unusual for bedrooms but if anyone else has this in their room please let me know). During the winter/fall I like to open the door outside (but leave the netting door so bugs can’t get in). Usually, I leave it open for any weather over 45 degrees. Even though it gets really chilly I sleep with like 3-4 blankets, so I feel pretty warm. I really want to try sleeping with a weighted blanket because that sounds suppppeer comfy. I think sleep is the best thing in the world. Any kind of sleep (long naps, short naps, just good solid sleep). Falling asleep to the cold is the best kind of sleep. You feel better rested afterward. With leaving my door open I do get worried that there’s a serial killer watching over me, waiting to kill. Another downside is that sometimes it gets too cold during the night and then I can’t fall asleep. But overall I love this kind of sleep. Does anyone else like to fall asleep with the door/window open?

    I like sleeping with the windows open whenever I go somewhere where it is dark outside. At my house, there is a streetlamp about 100 yards from my window, so I can not open my window and keep it dark at the same time. However, I enjoy camping and I think that is similar to sleeping with your windows open

    I can't sleep with my door open at all because I'm afraid that like if a robber or something comes into my house, I would be the first one to get attacked lol. I sleep with my door completely closed and I have to have my blanket tucked underneath my feet so I'm tucked in like a burrito. It's the most comfortable way to sleep ever.

    Sleeping with doors/windows open sounds like a really relaxing sleep. Especially if you burrow yourself under a ton of warm blankets. I’m honestly always paranoid that someone might be watching me or trying to get into my house so I usually have everything closed and locked (this is what I get for liking horror so much).

    I can't sleep with a window open if it's under 60 degrees outside because I get too cold, and then when I wake up and get out of my blankets the cold air is so uncomfortable. Why not just sleep in a warm room?

    I love sleeping with the air super cold, and under like 10 blankets. It's super relaxing. I live in the middle of nowhere so I can just leave the doors open without worrying too. I also really want to try a weighted blanket.

I like spoilers...

Whenever I read a fictional book (a book I enjoy I read for fun and entertainment instead of … you know… school) I get really impatient. I get to the middle section of the book and then I get really antsy and skip to the end of the book. I read the last 10-20 pages and then I go back to where I was before. I know this might upset some reading-enthusiasts but whatever, I like doing this. It’s the same with TV shows. When I watch a movie or TV, I HATE the feeling of not knowing. Like if there’s going to be a plot twist in season 5 then I want to know in season 1. That means that once I start a show, I usually look up the ending on Wikipedia before I’m even done with the first episode. I wish I could re(experience) watching/reading a book or movie for the first time. Like I would want to watch The Sixth Sense once knowing the twist and then another time without knowing the twist. Or with Seven, I would want to watch it once without knowing how it ends and then anothe

Waving on the Road

As a regular CU-MTD bus rider there are a lot of advantages and disadvantages (mostly that UofI students are absolutely clueless about everything). However, as a bus-rider, there is one really cool thing that I’ve noticed. When two bus drivers are driving past each other they usually wave to each other. If one bus driver is going to the Illinois Union and another bus is coming from the Illinois Union, then they will wave to each other (I once saw three bus drivers wave at each other simultaneous which was particularly amazing). They’re not communicating any important information about traffic, safety, or anything else “important”. Instead, they’re just saying hello; a nice little gesture. It’s something I noticed today on my way to school, although I’ve seen it several times before. I don’t think a lot of other people have observed this since people on the bus are usually on their phones, talking to their friends, or otherwise distracted. I feel like I’m seeing a secr

How do you say it?

My full name is Anna Kiri Ondrejckova. While my first name is pretty standard but last name is a bit different. Most people (like everyone) finds my last name unpronounceable. Even I can’t pronounce my last name correctly. My Dad is from the Czech Republic while my mom is from Slovakia (as I write in my autobiographical essay).   My last name comes from my dad although our last names are different. As a matter of fact, my family has three last names spread across five people. My brother and Dad have the last name, Ondrejcek while my sister and I have the last name “Ondrejckova”. My mom has a totally different last name of Ruziakova . Like in the U.S., in the Czech Republic last names are based on ancestry. For example, if someone is named “John Smith” that probably means someone in his family name was a black smith or some kind of smith. The same thing is true of Czech names. The most common last name in the Czech Republic is Novák which is the same as Newman . I
