Sleep 1

00:08 to 06:02

(5:54 hours)

Last night I was watching TV when I started to come over tired just after midnight, so I went to bed and set the alarm for 6:00am. It took me a bit longer to fall asleep - I think it must have been 20 - 30 minutes.

This morning I woke up from a dream at 6:00am when the alarm went off. I am thinking of setting my alarm back to 5:30am tomorrow morning, as waking up naturally doesn't seem to be something that I can rely on.

The main problem that I'm having at the moment is knowing when I am tired enough to fall asleep straight away. It seems that I need about 7 hours each day: About 1.5 hours for by nap and 5.5 hours for my core sleep.

Sleep 2

16:22 to 17:45

(1:23 hours)

I felt quite sleepy during the last 2 hours of work today, and when I got home I felt like I was really ready for my nap. I laid down in my bed, but the nap didn't come as quickly as I expected!

I think I fell asleep after about 20 - 25 minutes, and then when Yu Lee came in it woke me up and I couldn't sleep again. I felt like I had slept, but not for long enough, and the fact that I woke up so easily and wasn't dreaming at the time means I was probably only in light sleep. Let's see how tired I am tonight!
