Positivity.

I think I've been getting less headaches. I can't pinpoint the reasons why, but I'm assuming its most likely due to getting less sleep. Being the avid sleeper that I am, when I get a lot of sleep I don't move in the middle of the night. I go to sleep in one position and wake up 8 hours later in that same position. Now that I don't get 8 hours of sleep, I'm in that position less. Or it may just be the fact that I'm swimming every morning and warming up my muscles. It would be interesting to find out. I've been thinking about this recently, and noticing that when I don't wake up for swimming in the morning, I sleep at least 4 more hours and have a headache at some point during the day. Except these headaches are unusual because they are based at the front of my head, instead of the base of my head. Its sad that self-diagnosing is doing more for me than any doctor has... sigh.

In other news, only 3 weeks of school left until I'm a college graduate!

anything that is helping must be wonderful! i know for me, everytime I stop swimming and my core muscles get weaker, my back starts hurting and neck gets worse as well. having a strong core helps support the back muscles which help the weaker neck muscles as well. plus, it's easy on the body. i can't believe you sleep 4 more hours if you don't swim! you do like your sleep! :)
