I'm a native Spanish speaker. I can write in English just fine but my pronunciation is less than ideal. Now though, I have a job that requires me to speak it. Have to practice. 

Too lazy to go to bed? I'd say it's contradictory, but I can relate. 

[Condensation she/her]

I mean, I'm right here in front of the computer and some people are occasionally posting, plus I'm reading an online graphic novel, so I don't want to get up and walk up the stairs, go up the ladder, and do everything to get ready to go to sleep. It's easier to just stay here.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Can't argue with that. I'd offer some mature advice, but us Internet people are supposed to be bad influences, and I want to live up to that reputation. 

[Condensation she/her]

So noble of you!

[theTruthshaper]

What did your brother do?

[Condensation she/her]

He is supposed to be asleep, his bed time is 8:30 so he should be asleep. However, he is upstairs listening to an audiobook, and I can't fall asleep to audiobooks(he, Mist, and I share a room) and he won't turn it off because he says he needs it to go to sleep.

[Eluvianii he/him]

I would suggest earphones but I've heard it's somehow dangerous? And I suppose he is not one to fall asleep instantly? 

[Condensation she/her]

HA! No.

Yeah, I think it's dangerous somehow.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Then I can only wish you good luck. 

I have a similar thing with my dad and my sister. They apparently like to fall asleep to a movie, but I can't, if there's a movie on I will just, hang in there until it ends, so it happens that my dad puts a movie at midnight and I'm there, two hours later still watching. 

I actually was scolded pretty often as a kid for not falling asleep when they put me a movie for that purpose. I guess he couldn't fathom the idea that it didn't work for everyone. 

[Condensation she/her]

That's awesome. I'm the same way, but my dad will regularly fall asleep watching TV at high volume.

[Eluvianii he/him]

I don't know how people did that before TVs could be programed to turn themselves off. Like, falling asleep to a TV seems terrible for the electricity bill but a lot of people seem to do it. 

[Condensation she/her]

I know, right? I have no idea how we still have a fairly low electricity bill.

Yes, I advocate for Internet privacy for my minor siblings.

*is even more still awake*

On the topic of adulting and becoming adults, my thoughts are basically just the song “Don’t throw out my LEGOS” by AJR.
