the sleep debt.

Jul 18, 2010 13:28

I realised that when I sleep early, I tend to wake up extremely early, meaning in the middle of the unearthly morning-ish hours. (oh wait, kinda happens every morning, just that I don't sleep early). 
I feel really guilty sleeping my ass off and being unproductive as a sow during the weekends, when I could studying hard, doing project work, reading or doing things I don't have time for during the weekdays. 
Sleep deprivation is an extremely fun thing, you kill your mind doing math equations that somehow pay off, and physics mcqs that might not. It all somehow culminates, the hours that you are supposed to be sleeping and are not, into the weekends, when you sleep your ass off into the late mornings and only wake up for lunch because you are supposed to have at least 2 meals a day. (or so they say, i bet whoever came up with the nutrition thing is FAT) In any case, the problem with today's youth is that we don't effectively manage our sleeping habits, and I know this sounds like the RD project on teaching them how to sleep, but honestly, I woke up this morning feeling guilty as sin. Like ignoring the fact that I got tipsy yesterday and fell to dao all my piling homework, the fact that I fell asleep watching this really stupid show, just kills me.

Maybe in order to combat this thing known as the sleep debt where you are supposed to sleep off the hours that you don't actually sleep in, i should hibernate during "winter" and switch off biologically to sleep my ass off 16 hours a day. (number seems familiar from someone, somewhere) Hibernation sounds like a great idea, though I keep promising myself to be productive each holiday to pick up a new skill or something along the lines of that or do meaningful things during the holidays such as give back to charity or something moralistic like that. Though last holiday I spent most of it hanging out at coffee places, and tasting coffee - well, that'd work. (THIS IS ME RAMBLING)

the above paragraph represents all of us, procrastinating people, even sleep i'd procrastinate, much less my chinese essay and homework. ._.

In other news, I found that Itunes there was this function known as the Radio, that exposes a lot of pretty lounge music to be played as background music. I really love my neighbours because they installed this speaker thingy on the top the drink thing at the pool and spammed lounge music that was really nice. & I was swimming. Maybe I should aspire to live like them, throwing a poolside party every weekend and drink red wine by the pool, while watching kids (no i don't want to have kids) run and play in the water. so cute.
