Sleep 1

00:35 to 05:45

(5:10 hours)

Last night I was at my Mum's house, and in the end I went to bed at 12:30am.

I was relatively tired and I know it took me at least 12 minutes to fall asleep because I remember looking at the clock and it saying 12:47, but I think it was probably about 15 minutes in total before I fell asleep.

I set my alarm for 6:00am but I woke up naturally 15 minutes before it. I woke up from a dream where I was in a mixture of school and work and wanted to take a girl to the cinema. At the end of my dream Humza Q was being questioned by security and I refused to help him.

dream Dream: Friday 28 December 2012 05:45

School, Work, Cinema, Humza

I am at work, but there are a lot of elements from school here. In my dream I know that I am going out with Yu Lee, but for some reason I am searching for more female friends. I have decided that I want to go to the cinema with a girl but I am finding it difficult to ask them because I don't have the confidence to ask a random girl to the cinema.

Somehow I arrange to go to a film with a girl, and before the film starts I want to get a beer and a burger. I got into a fast food shop and ask how much it is for a beer and a burger, and they tell me that it is £7.49. I order one and they start to make the burger, but then I change my mind and say that it is too expensive and ask how much it is for just the burger. They say it would be £55 and that they had to put the prices up for burgers without beer. I say that there is no way I'm paying £55 for a burger and the guy is clearly annoyed as has already made it, but I stand my ground and complain about how they can't force people to buy a beer with their burger if they don't want to.

When I come back outside, the girl is gone already so I start to look around for her. At this point Jon (my manager) arrives even though he is supposed to be having the day off. I tell him that I am on my lunch break as I want to go to the cinema and he can't believe that I'm taking my lunch break at 9:00am to see a movie.

At this point several things are going through my head. I am worried that Jon might think that I told him I was taking an early lunch just because he came in, and that I was just going to try to get away with spending the whole day at the cinema instead of working. I also think about how my lunch break will be over by 10:00am and then the afternoon will be 6 hours long with no break, and that time will drag on for ages. In the end I give in and decide to take a normal lunch break and not see the film.

In the last part of the dream I am walking through a corridor when a group of people walk in from outside. There are some security guards, Jeremy H (from Jagex) and Humza Quereshi (my real life arch nemesis from when I was at school!). For some reason security are taking Humza into a cubicle / office.

Jeremy turns to me and says something like "Go easy on him, he's your friend" and Humza is asking me for help. I say "He's not my friend, he's a prick" and he objects.

The security guards start to interview Humza: "What is the impediment?" I feel that he has done something serious.

Humza starts to ramble on, saying confusing things that don't directly answer their questions. He is being filmed and his face is on a monitor, and as he speaks, after a second or so a transcript of what he's saying appears on the screen as subtitles.

Sleep 2

14:14 to 15:32

(1:17 hours)

This was my first nap in my own bed for a few days and I have to admit it is much less stressful napping at home! Whenever I nap at someone else's house I always feel like a bit of a pain so it was nice not to have that feeling.

I would guess it took me about 10 seconds to fall asleep once I settled down, but maybe up to a minute. Falling asleep was easy but for some reason I didn't sleep for very long.

First I woke up almost dead on 3:00pm, so I had only been sleeping for 45 minutes. I went back to sleep and then woke up at about 25 past. I decided to try and doze a bit longer but my neighbours were (I think) cutting something with a circular saw again which snapped me right out of it.

I think I would have liked to have slept longer!
