Sleep 1

00:07 to 06:00

(5:53 hours)

Last night was Yu Lee's brother's birthday so we were in London, and we ended up playing boggle until Yu Lee's mum came home around 11:30. We didn't get into bed until around midnight and it was about 10 past by the time we stopped talking and settled down to sleep.

I slept surprisingly well last night! Once I fell asleep (which took less than 5 minutes) I slept through solidly until my alarm at 6:00am when I woke up from a dream.

Birthday Beer

At the time I remember thinking that this was quite a long dream, but now I only remember fragments.

It is one of my friend's birthdays and for some reason I have to take him out for beers. We go to the pub and I order a beer and he orders two beers and immediately downs one of them. I tell him that I think we should eat first or we will get really drunk and he seems to want to get drunk quickly.

The only other thing I remember is that I had to leave the pub to do something, and when I was away I realised that I had left my tablet (computer) in the pub. I rushed back thinking that it would probably be stolen but luckily it was still on the table where I left it.

Sleep 2

18:59 to 19:30

(0:31 hours)

I didn't sleep at all

(See next sleep for comment)

Sleep 3

19:30 to 20:32

(1:02 hours)

Today I didn't get a chance to nap, so by 7:00pm I was starting to feel very tired and I decided to go for a nap then.

For some reason it took me a long time to fall asleep, and I remember looking at the clock and it being 7:30pm and thinking "If I don't fall asleep in 5 minutes I'm getting up". Just after that I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I remember was Yu Lee coming into the bedroom at 8:30.

I think this was definitely worthwhile!

Sleep 4

23:06 to 23:28

(0:22 hours)

I didn't sleep at all

Sleep 5

23:28 to 04:59

(5:30 hours)

Last night I went to bed at around 11:00, but to be honest I should have probably stayed up a little longer. I was mainly thinking about how long I would have to sleep rather than how tired I felt.

It took me a little while to fall asleep, and I think this may have been because I had a cup of tea after my nap at about 9:00pm. I am pretty sure it was the caffeine because I felt a bit restless and I find that it affects the way that I think while I am trying to get to sleep.

I set my alarm for 5:00am this morning which is probably going to be the time I get up each morning as 4:30am is a little on the early side. I feel a little bit tired now but hopefully that means I will be able to nap after work and my sleeping pattern will be back to normal.
