At the peak of my sleepiness, I detest witnessing the sunrise. Surely, this marks the beginning of a person's day but it is the unfortunate mark of the insomnia I have inflicted upon myself. The heat of due dates and exams has long cooled and eventually, it will emblazon once again.

Because I feel the breaks and the fluxes dramatic:
