yesterday i tried to nap more and see if i can slowly transit into polyphasic sleep in june.
so i napped at 12pm, then i took a nap at 5+pm on the train (which wasn't very substantial 'cos i wasn't leaning on anything, so kept waking up). i tried to take another nap at 9.30+pm (took a long way on the train to ensure that i have seats), but it didn't work 'cos some kid kept knocking on the glass i was resting my head on -.-
and then i wanted to take a nap at 1am, but i majorly fell asleep, didn't even hear my alarm clock. lol. and woke up this morning, once at 5.50am, and the second time at 6.45am. and i was like OH MAN!
needless to say, i was late for school :(
lol.
was a little stoned this morning (prob 'cos i was late for school and didn't have proper time to settle down, and maybe 'cos it was SUPER humid this morning) and by 10+, 11am, i was half stoning and was definitely not as productive as yesterday. lol. or maybe i exerted too much energy yesterday? hahaa. ah well :) took a nap at 12.15pm (after going through some plans with students, i bought finger food and finished it in 5 mins) and experienced time dilation in my dream O.o
i find it interesting dreams are supposed to take part in the rem sleep phase (which is the last stage of sleep), and yet usually when i nap, i have dreams. lol. one of the things that polyphasic sleepers experienced (which i read) is that of being able to go into rem sleep fast during a nap, and proof of that is having dreams.
maybe that explains for why naps work for me! :D
during uni days, when i take a nap at the tables at hq, i will auto wake up after 20 mins. hahaa. if i dun, i'd usually sleep on for another 40 mins. wondering if that'd help me to transit to polyphasic sleep faster.
hmm
anyway
today during my nap, i experienced time dilation. lol. maybe the 2nd or 3rd time in my life? whereby i've only slept for 20 mins, but i felt that i've slept for an hour. lol.
i remembered i had dreams, and that when i woke up, i could remember what the dreams were (i had 2 different dreams). now i can't remember the dreams. lol. but anyway, when i woke up, i sincerely thought tt i've slept for an hour (meaning i thought it's 1pm). when in fact, i checked the time and found it to be only 12:36pm. (which means tt i've only technically slept for 21 mins. i was like O.O!!!
time dilation!
