Polyphasic Sleep - Day 1

Disclaimer: This won't be my best blog post ever. That's because I'm sleep deprived at the time of writing, as is evidenced by the polyphasic sleep challenge itself.

It's 2 am of the first day of polyphasic sleep. I have begun my naps, but didn't sleep at 11 pm. I simply wasn't that tired. This will not be a problem at 4 am, I can tell you that!

I played video games til about 1, when I then proceeded to stop because the more tired I got, the suckier I became. I've been wiling away the last hour talking on Twitter, Facebook, and MSN, and thinking up tasks to do and being too tired to do them. However, I do aim over the next few days to make sure that my room gets tidied. I'm going to set myself a goal every cycle (time until next sleep). This cycle's goal is to tidy off my desk.

If I tried to do this a couple of months ago, I doubt I would have managed it. However, my self-discipline is strong: but I haven't entered the hard part yet. The adaptation period has only just begun.

I'm pretty well prepared for the adaptation. I've done my research, and polyphasic sleep expert PureDoxyk is following and being followed by me. Many before me have succeeded, and if they can do it, so can I.

1 hour and 40 minutes until core sleep.
