Day4 (nap7)

Tuesday, September 15, 2009

11:26 PM

This was the last nap of day4. The big important fact was that I made it to this nap. It was a bad day, and I doubt that I'll have a better one anytime soon, but I can look at what I'm doing now and realize that it's nothing compared to what some people go through each and every day (without a choice). I have the option of stopping this experiment; many people go through hell each day without the choice of getting rid of whatever ails them. For this reason, I will continue along this path; I will not resign myself to a 2nd failure at adaptation. I WILL succeed this time! PSA for Nap7 now:
Psychological State Analysis ( 1=low --> 5=high)

Feeling of "Tiredness"	3
Hunger	4
Clarity of thoughts	3
Willingness to exercise	1
Willingness to write	2
Memory recall ability	4
Awareness of surroundings	3
Feelings of anxiety	2
Calmness	4
Frequency of odd thoughts	1
Errors of mind/typing	1
Schedule Adherence	3
Productivity	2

Thank goodness I don’t have any more tests this week (only have to review 1 assignment). I don't know how much longer this will be my state of mind, or if it will get much worse in the coming days.

Day4 (naps2-6)

I'm not gonna sugar-coat this; I did a piss-poor job of (b)logging today. I have been fairly tired the whole day, and just never felt "up to it" after nap1. Now, in my last class of the day, I did attempt to do some PSA data from what I recall of the day & post-nap analysis. I will contain all PSA data for naps 2-6 on this post, in the format PSA 2, PSA 3, PSA 4 etc… Recognize that this PSA data was evaluated AFTER almost all of my naps had been completed for the day, thus it may not reflect w/ 100% accuracy, how I felt after specific naps.
Nap2: I accidently slept through Nap2 to Nap3 (~4hrs sleep)

In all honesty, I guess it wasn't that bad of a day, but it definitely wasn't good. Oversleeping, general tiredness & restlessness. It really wasn't great at all. I just have to hope that it'll get better soon. I don't plan on giving up anytime soon though.

Day4 (nap1)

Tuesday, September 15, 2009

2:22 AM

This nap was supposed to be from 12:30-1am. I could not get to sleep for that period of time, and in a sleepy haze ended up extending the nap period to 1:00-1:45ish. With that, I finally was able to fall asleep (something I haven't been able to do very easily all of Day3). I am not moving my naps around due to this extra napping, because from what I've seen, other people have added multiple naps during adaptation and suffered no serious consequences. Plus, I do have a test today that I should be as cognizant as possible for. Obligatory PSA:

Studying for a while, then back to bed soon for the 3:30-4am nap (please be restful).
