waking up at 7am today has been a painfully dreadful existence, and i've only been awake for 52 minutes. How do people do this?

omg it’s prob my age but i can’t sleep past 8 am anymore. i do have job that makes me follow a pretty rigid schedule so im going to bed early and waking up early. but after a few years of that it’s changed my sleep schedule permanently. in order to enjoy waking up early though you have to be well rested (sleep consistently on the same sched for a few days/week or 2) im convinced theres no other way.

Same, I woke up today at 7am thinking I’d be all productive , but my eyelids were literally trying to shut down on their own. I was so dead tired I had to force myself to drink coffee—even though I don’t even like caffeine.

@EATGRAEPS I do miss the feeling of having no obligations to anyone because they’re all asleep… do u ever get to watch the sunrise before u go to bed

@EATGRAEPS yeah, it is bliss. Come home from work, make food and read for a few hours before i sleep. And typically no, i sleep when the outside world is still dark

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

let me break it down… Anthology 10 dollars a lot of lesser known avant garde films mixed in with art/foreign films. most things are also projected on film. really good place if your looking for something different. Moma is like 10 dollars too but if you’re a student you can get a free entry ticket which allows for a free movie ticket you just have to ask the desk. Moma has alot of stuff on film also and is always putting up classics And retrospectives on filmmakers Momi is also 10 and has a ton of cool 35mm more mainstream films always playing such as kubrick or Micheal mann.museum’s section is also cute especially if you like the muppets. Lincon center is a good place to go see indies/foreign movies that have come out recently also around 10 dollars also do some retrospectives remasters and 35mm screenings Spectacle is a community run Brooklyn theater that is one room and plays obscure cinema very fun place to go out to with friends and see something different. Roxy has some good 35mm screenings good date place to take someone.very comfy inside this fancy hotel downside is little more expensive but overall one of the better theater experiences in New York. Warning hipster central however 😭

Going to the movies rocks. this was honestly such a hard question. This isn’t exactly the ~best~ movie but it is a great movie to see in a theater From like 19-20 going to the Landmark in Westwood to see the Room with my friends rocked. The Room is such a funny bad movie and it’s even better at this theater because of all the canned responses the audience has to the shit happening on screen. its similar to how campy people get with Rocky Horror Picture Show. People throw plastic spoons and loudly jeer at the movie. occasionally Tommy Wiseau and maybe Greg Sestero will show up and you can take a pic. Highly recommend pregaming and then going with your friends at least once sometimes a specific audience for it will suck but overall it was always pretty fun.

I saw somewhere the other day that in order to better your life, you must create more opportunities for luck to exist. Today i pushed the opportunities of luck, and in return i have met a wide range of cool people. Life is cooooool
