Sleep

Re: Sleep

My sleeping schedule is terrible as I get around 3-5 every night on weekdays because of school, and then from Friday to Saturday I just crash for 12+ hours. Just call me a procrastinator extraordinaire as no matter how tired I am during the week, I still won't go to sleep any earlier than about 2 am.

Someone should have told my dads side of the family, because it certainly hasn't hurt them.

Re: Sleep

Usually try for 7-9, but I probably only get 6 or 7 a night. I can usually function throughout the day pretty easily, sans maybe a half hour or an hour here or there where I am exhausted. Usually get a quick second wind, though, before I go to bed.

Re: Sleep

9 or 10 hours. It helps when your class doesn't start until 1:30 the next day, so you can stay up until 2 and sleep until noon if you feel like it.

Hey, we all die someday. I'm just trying to enjoy the time I do have here. Plus, any of us could drop dead tomorrow regardless of the amount of sleep we get. You can sit around and worry about every little thing in life, or spend time enjoying it before it's gone.

Well said.

Re: Sleep

If I get less than 10 hours of sleep, I'm useless, so I try to get at least that much. I got 13 hours today so I'm feeling pretty good.

Re: Sleep

If I get 8 hours, then I'm good for the day, don't feel tired, and normally will not take a nap. If I get 7, then sometimes I feel tired but normally still don't nap. Anything less than that and I will have to nap in the evening time after getting home from work. I remember back in college those numbers used to be 10 to 11 hours on avg a night.

Re: Sleep

The thing that pisses me off is that it doesn't seem to matter how much sleep i have i still have to drag myself out of bed in the morning.

During the week i usually get between 7-9 hours and a bit more occasionally on the weekend if my 18 month old decides to sleep in. The thing is i can set my alarm for 5am to get up and workout or sleep until 8am and i still feel tired when i get up. I think i'm just destined to never be a "morning person".

I get 5-7 hours. I don't understand how anyone could work and get 10 hours of sleep. To wake up at 6, that's going to bed at 8 PM. On a working schedule, that would give you roughly 2 hours of awake home time per day.

Does everyone who work get up at 6?

Re: Sleep

You're still very young. Wait till you get older and are up early every morning for work...and I realize I'm not the norm when I work 7am-6-7pm, but still. Your body will adjust and you'll get used to it. Plus like I mentioned above, there just isn't enough hours in the day to get everything done sleeping 10+ hours IMO (or at least for me there isn't).

I don't have any kids yet, but it's even worse after that from what I've been told. 5 hours is a lot. Baby's up all night, but work still comes calling the next morning.

Yeah. I having a pretty friendly sleeping schedule now to where I don't have to go to sleep early/get up early. But back at my old job when I lived in Indy, I tried getting my 8 hours a night, but it wasn't easy having to wake up at 5-6 everyday.

Perfectly said.
