#Diary
It was a total misery to keep awake at night.
Last night, I was very upset. It was really too hot, even the air conditioner can not cool me down. I thought I would feel better if I went to sleep early. I was wrong. From 22:00 to 1:00, I tossed and turned in bed and became waker and waker. My eyes were too heavy to close but my mind was wake. I thought about the things I came across the whole day and considered to schedule my work tomorrow.
In fact, I need to get up early in the morning. As the time going, I became more and more worried about my condition tomorrow. Lastly I went to the opposite of the bed and crawled myself in a half circle, trying to sleep again. It was 1:40 then. This time, I told myself again and again to forget everything and breath in and out long. Finally I slept but I did not know the exact time.
