Last night I was feeling moderately tired when I went to bed, and to be honest I was not sure that I would sleep easily after such a long nap, but I must have fallen asleep within minutes as I have no recollection of laying in bed.

This morning I woke up naturally just after half past four. I was dreaming that I was back in school, and my little brother was in trouble. I went to see him and he told me that he was being expelled for doing something to one of the girls in his class. I got angry at him and hit him in the face for being so stupid.

When I went for my nap I fell asleep very quickly but woke up after an hour. I was going to log my sleep when I noticed how short it was and decided to go back to sleep.

When I woke up the second time I was dreaming. I have no idea what I was dreaming about now, but when I woke up I remembered it clearly and started to talk it through in my head, but I though it was way to complicated to write down and gave up on trying to remember it.

I feel slightly groggy now, which is not unusual for a sleep of this length, and it took me a good 15 minutes to crawl out of my bed, but I am starting to feel good again and at least I won't be tired this evening.

Last night I started to feel a bit tired at about 11:00, so I went straight to bed without Yu Lee. When Yu Lee came in half an hour later I was still awake but only just, but her coming in disturbed me a bit and woke me up, so I think it was at least 11:45 by the time I fell asleep.

Although it took me a while to fall asleep I didn't feel frustrated and enjoyed relaxing in the bed. When my alarm went at 5:00 though, I didn't find it quite so easy to get up but I still managed to do it.

As it is a weekend I could take my nap a bit earlier than usual. This morning we went to town to finish our Christmas shopping, and after we got back seemed like the perfect time to take a nap.

Yu Lee came with me for my nap and it is the first time we have napped together for ages! I fell asleep easily in a couple of minutes and woke up naturally after an hour and a half. I feel good!

Last night I had a massive meal in town with one of my friends, and then walked back home and arrived at about 10:30pm. When I got back I drank a bit of water and came to bed at 11:00. It was the first night in ages that Yu Lee went to bed before me.

Because I woke up at 4:30am naturally yesterday, I actually switched my alarm off so that it wouldn't wake Yu Lee up at 5:00. This morning I woke up naturally at 5:05 and realised that I hadn't turned it back on, but it didn't matter because I woke up at the correct time anyway!

Considering I was so uncomfortably full last night, and that I had a glass of wine and some beer, I actually slept well and didn't need any extra sleep.

Today I felt very tired for a lot of the day at work, and I think I felt most tired at about 2:00pm. By the time it got to home time I was feeling a little more awake but still definitely in need of my nap!

This evening I had arranged to see one of my Spanish friends who lives in London but was in Cambridge for a conference. By the time my nap time had come around I still wasn't 100% sure what was going to happen. I sent her a text asking if she wanted to eat together and what time to meet and went for my nap.

2 hours later I woke up 2 minutes before my alarm was due to go off. I looked at my phone and she had replied and said to meet her at 7:00 to eat, so I quickly made a cup of tea and drank it, and then Yu Lee dropped me in town.

I managed the whole evening without reverting back to English once, so my nap obviously worked and stopped me from feeling tired. I really needed it today!

Last night I went to bed when Yu Lee was tired, at about 10:40pm. We chatted in bed for 10 minutes and then I reset the timer and went to sleep.

It took me a little bit longer than usual to fall asleep, and I vaguely remember looking at the clock at about 11:30. As with previous nights, I don't remember laying in bed for this long and it wasn't at all frustrating, so I think I may have drifted into a light sleep before then and seen the clock when I woke up briefly to roll over.

I woke up naturally this morning at 4:25am from a dream. When I woke up I wasn't sure if it was morning, or if I had woken from a nap.

I came in from work and went straight to bed and fell asleep very quickly, probably in about 5 minutes. I woke up naturally after 1:40 and could have easily gone back to sleep, but decided it was better to wake up.

I felt really drowsy still until I turned on my lamp which instantly made me feel more awake, but I still laid in bed for 15 minutes afterwards. I was expecting Yu Lee to be home already but when I opened the door I realised I was on my own.

Yesterday I got quite a lot of sleep - I had 6 hours the previous night and 2 hours in the afternoon. For some reason I felt sleepy all evening. Maybe it was because I woke up from my nap and let myself go back to sleep, but I'm not really sure why.

In the end I went to bed just before 11:00pm and got up at 5:00. I woke up and got out of bed pretty much straight away and felt really alert.

Towards the end of work I started to feel tired, but I was feeling a bit more awake by the time I got home. I was hungry so I had a tiny bowl of cornflakes, which turned out to be a bad idea! When I went to bed I laid there for 10 minutes picking the bits out of my teeth before reseting the timer.

I woke up when Yu Lee came in at 5:40, and I heard her coming up the stairs, but I easily (and accidentally) fell back to sleep. I had a vivid dream about having an alternate reality that I could get to through a wardrobe in my house, and woke up naturally after the dream.

Afterwards I felt like I could easily go back to sleep again but thought I'd probably better not and turned the light on. I called Yu Lee in and we chatted until 7:00 when I got up.

Yesterday my nap was a little shorter, so I got tired a bit earlier than usual. I went to bed at 11:00pm and fell asleep straight away.

This morning I woke up easily to the alarm and bounced straight out of bed.

Today at work I came over sleepy at about 12:00 but after an hour or so it passed and I felt fine. When I got in my bed all of the tiredness came back and I fell asleep in less than 5 minutes.

When Yu Lee came home I heard her and it woke me up, and for some reason this made me feel quite angry. I was still sleepy so I laid in bed for another half hour but I should have probably just got up. Still it was nice to lay in bed and the time went very quickly.

When I did finally get up I realised that I was being unreasonable being angry with Yu Lee as I probably would have woke up soon anyway.

It was 11:30pm by the time I settled down to go to sleep last night, and I had felt pretty tired for the previous hour. I didn't fall asleep straight away though. I think I drifted in and out for a while as I remember looking at the clock and seeing 1:45am. I didn't feel frustrated and I don't remember laying there for a long time so I probably fell asleep and woke up a few times.

This morning when the alarm went off I was dreaming. I don't remember exactly what the dream was about but I remember it took place in a school and it was very vivid. Maybe I should start keeping a dream journal!

After the alarm I felt a little sleepy, and I thought "Maybe I should set another alarm for 5:30" but in the end I realised it was better to just get up.

Today at work I was very tired at about 12:00, probably because this is the time I napped the past 2 days. I got over the initial tiredness, but by 4:00 I was feeling very sleepy and when I got home I was really ready for bed.

When I laid in bed I went straight into half-sleep where I was having vivid daydreams with lots of sounds, which lasted until I rolled over onto my side. About a minute later I had drifted off into a deep sleep.

Last night I started to feel sleepy around 10:30, and initially tried to go to bed at 11:00, but in the end it was 11:30 by the time I settled down to sleep.

I don't really remember laying in bed last night so I guess I must have fallen asleep pretty quickly! I set my alarm for 5:00am and when it went off I got up straight away. Yu Lee tried to cuddle up to me and I said something like "I can't I need to get up otherwise I will start to feel drowsy if I lay here" which is progress!

This was an amazing nap!

I had my lunch and at some point afterwards I ended up sitting on my bed and suddenly I just knew it was the right time for my nap! The feeling just came over me so I undressed and got in bed and was asleep within minutes.

I didn't bother setting an alarm, and woke up naturally after 2.5 hours. When I woke up I was having a long and vivid dream.

Last night I went to bed with Yu Lee at 11:30pm, and I fell asleep within minutes. When I laid down in my bed I could hear the low frequency noise that I keep on hearing, but it didn't matter and I fell asleep quickly despite it.

I set my alarm for 5:00am as I didn't want to sleep for too long, but this morning I woke up naturally at 4:30. I laid in bed for a few minutes, and then my legs got really hot so I had to put them out of the covers, which is unusual as it is December and the temperatures are really low.

Now that I've got up I feel a little sleepy, but I think I would have felt more tired had I fallen back to sleep.

Today I wasn't planning on taking my nap early, but at around 11:00am I ate lunch and then came over really tired. I was thinking that I should hold off and nap later, but then I thought 'why not?'. My body obviously wanted to sleep then so I let it.

I fell asleep in less than 10 minutes (probably more like 5) and drifted into a deep sleep. I woke up at least once but I have no idea whether it was half way through or near the end. When I finally opened my eyes and looked at the clock over 2 hours had passed.

This was a lovely nap, and I felt really good afterwards. I was really thirsty and had an amazing cup of tea! I think this is how it's supposed to be done.

My sleeping pattern is not very consistent at the moment!

Yesterday I woke up naturally at 4:10am, so I was pretty tired when I got in from work but I only slept for just over an hour. By the time 10pm came around I was already feeling tired so I went to bed at half past.

When I got in bed next door were playing their tv pretty loud and laughing, the heating was creaking, I could hear the low frequency noise and Yu Lee was breathing heavily in my ear. All of the noises mixed together into a kind of jumbled background noise, and I think I fell asleep within 10 minutes! Not bad!

This morning I woke up at 2:30am but went straight back to sleep. Then I woke up at 4:30 to my alarm and got up (although I did lay in bed for 15 minutes and nearly fell back to sleep).

Towards the end of the day at work, I knew I would be able to nap today! I was starting to feel like it was way past my bed time.

When I got home, I went straight to bed and must have fallen asleep within minutes. I set my alarm for 6:30pm which would have given me 2:20 hours of sleep, but I woke up naturally after 1:15 which surprised me.

I felt refreshed when I woke up, but I also felt like it was a very short sleep.
