Not sleeping



So lately I have been having this strange sleep cycle where I go to bed at what ever time and wake up once or twice during the night before falling back asleep. Most of the time I'm half asleep and usually talking about something strange. I already thought I was talking to my mum on the phone. It might be from my ginko pills I started taking recently but then again my sleeping cycle has always been pretty fucked up.

After being interested in gaining more time for myself I ended up trying polyphasic sleeping from this awesome site: http://ohgodthechicken.com/ I wasn't very successful both times I tried it. Mostly because I don't sleep if I'm not tired. And if I am tired I don't always sleep. Since it usually takes me 30 mins to sleep I opted for the 1 hour siesta schedule, though that didn't work because I was tired all the time. So eventually I chucked it.

It did work the first time I tried it though. But at that point in time I wasn't actully trying polyphasic sleep. I just liked to stay up until 3 in the morning. By the time I ended up going to sleep it would be about 4. Since class started at 8, I would get just enough sleep to get done with my morning classes before taking a 4 hour nap. It was trippy as fuck waking up at 8 P.M. and having lunch/dinner/breakfast/whatever the fuck you call a meal after getting up at 8 P.M. I did feel like I had a good deal of sleep and a shit load of time really quickly. It felt like I gained a ton of time, even though I spent most of it browsing the interwebs for awesomes.

Where as I again? Oh yeah. So, I've on more then one occasion understood the idea of "dreams bleeding into reality" and it's been one of those nights again. The awesome part though, is when you can't tell the difference. I've had this "knowing" that there was a few people nearby that I had helped because they were customers or something. When I'm dreaming and don't know it, all kinds of crazy shit happens there.
