During hunger challenge

I am just over about half-way through my twenty four hour fast and let me tell you that I am officially starving. I woke up early this morning and to make matters worse I was already feeling pains down in the pit of my stomach. I thought that I would at least make it to the afternoon before my first pain would show up but I was dead wrong. As I was sitting in my classes for the day I was unable to concentrate and lost focus nearly every thirty seconds which needless to say was not good for my class participation. I have to go into work in a hour where I will be reffing little kids for the next five hours, which should get me to about the  eighteen hour mark. From past experiences reffing tends to take my mind off eating and the pains that are bearing down on my stomach eh oh will really help me as I make to the final stretch of this day of fasting. I must say that if this was a feeling I even had to feel a few times a year without having a say in the matter then I honestly don't know how I could bear down and get through it during those days. This really makes me feel terrible for the population that experience this in day in and day out , it's something  that needs to be further looked at and a problem that should be at the forefront of being solved as quick as possible. Once I return back from work I will shower and watch a little tv before I sleep through the remaining hours of my famine, but I really don't see that going as smoothly as I invision. I know that sleeping will be a rather hard thing for me to get through with an empty stomach and no way to satisfy my cravings, I feel that I could be rustling back and forth all night without much sleep. I cannot wait to wake up and be complete with this challenge because the second I am done I will be heading straight to Waffle House and order two all star specials before class in the morning. This last half of the challenge is going to be tough.
