about

My name is Devin Lindsey or Vinny as my sister calls me! I am 17 years old and go to Bethel Park High school. I loooove swimming along with dancing, singing, and playing softball. I also run varsity track with is alright i supose too.


My favorite colors are orange, pink, and blue. I love to be crazy and have a good time

I've had a job working for 15+ monthes so I can answer alot about that

and I know alot about relationships in general so I can be helpful with that sometimes

especially with parent child relationships


I am a very observant person and tend to know more and care about more than most my age


and I really believe in volunteering to help animals especially at shelters. Usually its not their fault that they have to live their and its usually horrible cercimstances that bring them there and I feel terrible that they can't speak for themselves and people are too caught up in spending like $500 on this cute little pure breed puppy from a breeder just into getting rich instead of giving one of these dogs another chance at life (there are usually a handful of dogs under a year old so the i want a puppy excuse doesn't work with me)

My baby is named Lainey Mae... we got her from a shelter about 2 hours away from us when she was 7 weeks old. she is now 2 years old and the center of our family. unfortunately someone was cruel enough to go down and drug up and shoot (but luckly not kill) most of the dogs plus rob the owner (just like someone did at the shelter where I volunteer) and its now shut down

advice

i heard a power nap is like 20 minutes and its more refreshing then like an hour nap

well i take naps after school cause i get EXTREMELY STRESSED and TIRED so i like to sleep but i usually sleep for like 3-8 then i do homework than i cant sleep till 1AM and i feel so tired during the day at school

i have alot of homework so i cant sleep and i heard power naps make you feel energized is it true?

should i take a power nap and put my alarm clock for 20 minutes later ? then wake up at do my homework?

It is true that 20 min naps are the best. it allows your body to rest but not fall into a deep sleep which usually makes you more tired when you get up.

i would recommend napping no longer than 30 mins after school if you intend on getting back up.. that nap will hold you over for a few hours until it is time for bed.

Although if you are used to sleeping up to 8 hours after school i would make the transistion to 20 min power naps gradual.. The body is better rested if you have a pattern over getting a long night sleep (ex. if you go to bed at 12 and get up at 5 is better than going to bed at like 10 one night and 7 then next and still getting up at 5)

so i would say maybe this week take only 2 hour naps. next week 1 hour naps, then the week after that 20 min naps.

For the next few weeks if you are still tired after the power nap give it time.. your body needs to reajust iteself.
