how does it happen?

i used to be somewhat easy going. i think.

i used to be a happy camper. i used to put up with

situations where i wasn't completely comfortable.

i used to like being covered in dirt from playing hard . . . not worrying

about showering immediately afterwards . . .

i used to be a night owl. i didn't mind not getting

a full night of sleep to stay up talking to a friend on the phone,

or catching up through instant-messaging or email . . .

in highschool, sometimes i would stay up all night, just thinking about things . . .

i might only get 3 hours of sleep, but it was okay.

in college, i would stay up late, chatting with friends, watching movies, get 3 good hours of

sleep then head off to class.

i used to have strong thoughts and opinions, but i never vocalized them

if they were going to hurt someone's feelings.

suddenly, i'm very selfish with my time. i'm SO not a night person.

if you're interupting my sleep-time for something that's

less than SUPER urgent, you're NOT going to be on my good side.

i hate being dirty, sweaty, unclean . . . infact, i've become somewhat OCD about it.

i'm a very picky-eater, always have been. however, i'm

so much more vocal about it than i used to be.

if i don't get SOME alone time through out the day, i'm grumpy.

i'm much more outspoken about my opinions and beliefs than i've ever been.

to the point where it's hard for me not to offend people sometimes.

i almost feel as though i've reverted back to 3-year old me.

less inhibited to express how i'm feeling.
