bodies together.
-Thomas Dekker
Remember to
Make sleep a priority! You must schedule sleep like any other daily
activity, so put it on your to-do list and cross it of every night. But
dont make it the thing you do only after everything else is done-stop
doing other things so you get the sleep you need.
