Taking Sleep for Granted
Humans will spend half of their lives sleeping, which is why sleep is essential to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Prolonged positive effects can be seen in individuals who have healthy sleep habits. The benefits include keeping people up and energized throughout the day, as well as allowing their brains and muscles to further mature and grow. This is why healthcare professionals urge the use of healthy sleep habits. The possible risk when one does not sleep enough can be detrimental, as poor executive functions, increased suicidal thoughts, and a multitude of physiological effects have all been side effects of a lack of sleep.

The Little Shack. Top Story - December 2023.
It was a tiring day on campus. I couldn't even get a second to catch my breath. The autumn season was here, and it was getting chilly. The Pediatric Ward of our hospital was beginning to seem understaffed due to the increase in patients. The kids were coming in with common cold, cough, and pyrexia. Parents were distressed, and if one sibling got sick, the others followed. It was a hard time managing the patients and counseling the upset parents. I didn't even get a fifteen-minute break. My fellow classmates and I were running haywire to get everything done on time.
