Sleep 1

23:24 to 04:28

(5:04 hours)

Last night Yu Lee was out with her friends when I went to bed. I remember laying in bed and not feeling right because she wasn't home and thinking it would take me a while to sleep. I think I fell asleep within 5 minutes as usual.

When Yu Lee came in to bed I woke up enough to cuddle up to her but I kept my eyes closed. I think I did eventually roll over and look at the clock and it was about 1:00am.

This morning I woke up naturally at about 4:20 from a dream. I remember thinking that I didn't remember the dream, all I could remember was the stupid maths show I was doing, and then I realised that was the dream! I laid still in bed to try and crystallise my memories of the dream, but I fell asleep again and woke up 10 minutes later, so I need to be careful about doing that.

Maths

I only remember one scene from this dream.

I am doing some kind of maths contest. The presenter is eccentric and dressed in a suit and reminds me of Mr. Goodman, my maths teacher from school. We are in the hallway of a house with a staircase in front of us and a white board on the stairs. We are being filmed for TV and I know for some reason that the queen is watching.

The mathematician has drawn 4 numbers on the board in a cross, one up, down, left and right. The numbers each have about 5 digits and we have to do some kind of puzzle with each of them that involves a lot of calculations (similar to countdown).

When the time ran out I hadn't got any of the answers. I complain the it's not fair because he knows the answers, but he says he doesn't, and proceeds to work them out in front of me.

He scribbles away at the board and works them out really quickly and I am very impressed. I ask how he knows there is always a solution and he somehow proves it to me.

I would love to know if the maths he showed me actually made sense but I guess it's unlikely. I was slightly in awe of him!

Sleep 2

14:24 to 15:05

(0:41 hours)

Fell asleep in about 5 minutes. A great nap ruined by my neighbours.

Sleep 3

15:06 to 15:44

(0:38 hours)

I didn't sleep at all

I can't put into words how angry I feel.

Sleep 4

21:46 to 22:29

(0:43 hours)

I didn't sleep at all

I felt really tired so I went to bed early, but in the end it took me at least 45 minutes to fall asleep...

Sleep 5

22:30 to 01:28

(2:58 hours)

...and once I did finally fall asleep, I woke up after 3 hours.

I laid in bed for a while as I didn't really want to get up at 1:30am, but as I laid there I started to feel overwhelmingly hot. When I got up my whole body was really hot and I wouldn't be surprised if I was ill.

I got a glass of water which cooled me off and I am sitting at my mac in the dark. I don't think it will be long before I come back to bed. I hope I am not ill!
