429 02/02/13 21:25 to 03/02/13 04:15 6:49 I slept well

Last night I felt pretty tired for some reason, so when Yu Lee decided to go to bed at 9:30pm I decided to join her.

I didn't fall asleep straight away. I remember looking at the clock and seeing that it was 10:00pm, so it took at least half an hour to properly fall asleep, but I think I may have been drifting in and out by that time and it was nice and relaxing.

The first time I woke up last night was at 11:30pm so I'd probably been asleep for about 1.5 hours. I could have easily got up then but I was trying to have a full night's sleep and not a nap! I got back to sleep easily and slept through the rest of the night and woke up naturally at 4:15am. I still felt like I could have gone back to sleep if I'd wanted to, despite the fact that I'd been asleep for nearly 7 hours which is a lot for me!

428 02/02/13 13:16 to 02/02/13 14:25 1:09 I slept well

Today I had a lovely little nap!

I fell asleep in about 5 minutes, and slept through for about 45 minutes and woke up at 2:05. I logged the end of my sleep but was in no hurry to get up so I allowed myself to fall asleep again and woke up again at 2:25 when Yu Lee flushed the toilet. After that I adjusted the times on my sleep log and laid in bed for another 20 minutes or so.

This was a really enjoyable nap! It always feels much better to nap in the middle of the day and it's lovely to just lay in bed afterwards and relax. I just wish I could do this every day...

427 01/02/13 22:05 to 02/02/13 04:29 6:24 I slept well

Yesterday I felt quite tired so I went to bed a bit earlier than usual. I slept through solidly and woke from a dream when my alarm went off this morning at 4:30am, but I don't really remember anything about the dream.

426 01/02/13 16:11 to 01/02/13 17:13 1:02 I slept well

Today I felt like I could have slept longer in the morning, and especially towards the second half of the day I really felt like I could have done with a nap. When I got home I still felt pretty tired and when I laid down in my bed I drifted off in about 5 minutes.

I had a nice sleep and felt like I slept quite deeply, but by 5:10pm when Yu Lee came home I was sleeping lightly enough to be woken by the flush on the toilet.

Now I feel refreshed, but like another 15 minutes would have been nice!

425 31/01/13 23:07 to 01/02/13 04:38 5:31 I slept well

Last night I was pretty tired. I don't know why but somehow travelling back from London seems to have tired me out, even though it just involved sitting in the car and being driven!

I fell asleep pretty quickly last night, probably in just a few minutes and slept solidly through until my alarm went off at 4:30. I tried to turn my alarm off but I must have snoozed it by accident, which was a good job because it woke me up again 8 minutes later!

I feel pretty tired today. Hopefully I will have a good nap after work and that will sort me out for this evening!

424 31/01/13 18:00 to 31/01/13 19:31 1:31 I slept well

Today was the last day of my course and my last day in London. We finished early but I ended up going for a pint with Carlos, so I got back a little later than usual.

I went to bed around 6:00pm and I think I fell asleep after about 15 minutes, although I didn't feel like it was a particularly deep sleep. I woke up because Yu Lee was climbing on top of me to wake me up!

After my nap I had tea, then dinner, and now it is time to go home.

423 30/01/13 23:10 to 31/01/13 04:30 5:20 I slept well

I got to sleep shortly after 11:10pm, and slept through until 3:30am. I then went back to sleep and woke up from a dream at 4:10am, and finally slept through until 4:30am when my alarm went off.

I feel a little more tired than usual, possibly due to my broken sleep towards the end of the night.

422 30/01/13 22:52 to 30/01/13 23:09 0:17 I didn't sleep at all

I felt relatively tired when I went to bed, but something kept going round my mind and I didn't sleep for a while...

421 30/01/13 17:35 to 30/01/13 19:15 1:40 I slept well

Today in class I really struggled to stay awake, but as usual I started to wake up towards the end of the day.

When I got back to Yu Lee's mum's house I felt tired but not really sleepy. My eyes were watering a bit and I knew I needed to sleep so I went straight to bed, and I recorded 14 minutes of 'did not sleep' separately. After that I think it took at least another 10 minutes to fall asleep.

Once I'd drifted off I slept like a log until my alarm went off at 7:15pm. I think I could have probably slept a bit longer than that. Tonight I will try to resist the temptation to go to bed early!

420 30/01/13 17:20 to 30/01/13 17:34 0:14 I didn't sleep at all

I recorded 14 minutes of laying in bed before I fell asleep.

419 29/01/13 21:35 to 30/01/13 04:12 6:37 I slept well

As I didn't manage to sleep for my nap yesterday I was really tired in the evening, so in the end I went to bed just after 9:30pm.

I fell asleep in about 5-10 minutes, and initially woke up early this morning just after 3am. I went back to sleep and drifted in and out a couple of times and eventually got up at 4:12am. I had set my alarm for 4:30.

I'm not 100% sure if I've had enough sleep to make it through the day! Hopefully I won't find it too hard to stay awake in class and will be able to nap when I get home.

418 29/01/13 17:18 to 29/01/13 18:11 0:53 I didn't sleep at all

After trying hard not to sleep all day on my course, when I finally got the chance to sleep I couldn't! I rested for about an hour and then got up.

I very nearly fell asleep at one point but not quite! It's probably because I slept so much yesterday...

417 28/01/13 22:18 to 29/01/13 04:30 6:12 I slept well

Last night I started to feel a bit sleepy around 10:00pm, even though I'd only been awake for a couple of hours!

I went to bed at 10:15 and set my alarm for 4:30. I think it probably took me about 10 minutes to fall asleep and I actually woke up naturally at 4:03am and recorded the end of my sleep. After that I laid in bed for a while and the next thing I knew it was 4:30 and my alarm was going off.

416 28/01/13 17:46 to 28/01/13 19:27 1:41 I slept well

Today I was in a course in central London, and it was so boring! I found it a real struggle to stay awake despite the fact that I've had a bit of extra sleep the past couple of days.

My course finished at 4:30pm and by the time I'd got back to Yu Lee's mum's house it was about 5:15. I went straight to bed to sleep but I wasn't quite so tired by this time. I logged the first 16 minutes as 'did not sleep' and I think it probably took me another 5 minutes to fall asleep, but once I drifted off I had a nice long, deep sleep with at least one dream (which I don't remember now).

When I woke up I had a pretty much perfect cup of tea and then some really tasty Chinese style stewed pork with rice!

415 28/01/13 17:29 to 28/01/13 17:45 0:16 I didn't sleep at all

It took me just over 15 minutes to fall asleep.

414 27/01/13 22:28 to 28/01/13 04:30 6:02 I slept well

Last night I started to feel tired around 9:30 which was surprising because I'd had such a long nap. I stayed up until 10:30 and when I did go to bed I fell asleep very quickly.

I remember waking up from a dream around midnight but I don't remember the dream any more. I got back to sleep easily and slept through until my alarm at 4:30.

When my alarm went off I still felt quite tired. I thought I would probably wake up naturally around 4:00 but I felt like I could have slept longer. I hope I don't feel too sleepy during my course today!

413 27/01/13 14:55 to 27/01/13 16:38 1:43 I slept well

This week I have a course in London so I am going to be staying with Yu Lee's mum from today until Thursday.

We arrived in London this morning and went to Wood Green to get food, and afterwards I ate and went for my nap. I felt a bit tied but I wasn't sure if I would sleep easily as I normally don't sleep quite as well when I am away from home (although if I am away Yu Lee's mum's house is probably the best place to nap!), but in the end I fell asleep in about 5 minutes and slept for quite a long time!

When I woke up I thought I'd only been asleep for a short while so I was surprised when I looked at the clock and saw how late it was. I woke from a dream and felt super refreshed. I'm not sure if I will be able to nap this week as I will be getting home late...

412 26/01/13 22:31 to 27/01/13 04:11 5:40 I slept well

Last night I began to feel a little sleepy around 9pm, and by 10:30 I was definitely ready for sleep. I went to bed and fell asleep easily and quickly, and slept through solidly until 4:10am this morning when I woke up naturally from a dream.

It looks like my random sleep yesterday hasn't affected my sleeping pattern too much!

411 26/01/13 09:18 to 26/01/13 11:44 2:26 I slept well

I think this morning I made a bit of a mistake in setting my alarm so early. Splitting my sleep up into multiple chunks would probably result in needing less overall sleep if I were used to it, but as I am not it resulted in me feeling very tired.

After I got up this morning I really struggled to stay awake for the first hour or so but after that I pretty much just watched youtube videos (of TED talks) and then went for a bath. When I got out of the bath I decided it was nap time already, even though it was only 9:15 and went to bed.

I fell asleep in about 5 - 10 minutes and then I drifted off into a nice deep sleep with lots of dreams (although I only remember vague fragments now). I woke up several times, and just after I finally woke up Yu Lee came in and got in bed with me so we laid there for about another 40 minutes.

Now I feel great! Well worth it!

410 26/01/13 02:07 to 26/01/13 04:38 2:30 I slept well

I went back to bed just after 2am, and I think it took me between 10 and 20 minutes to fall back to sleep. At 4:00am I woke up from a lucid dream and to be honest I could have easily got up but I decided to go back to sleep (without writing down my dream), and after that I slept through until my alarm at 4:30am. I must have snoozed my alarm and fallen back to sleep because I finally woke up again about 10 minutes later when the alarm went off again.
