How Much Sleep Do YOU Get? - Page 3 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

digme · 01-26-2004, 06:56 PM

I used to pride myself in how little sleep I needed to keep functioning. Now I start getting a headache and start to whine at about 9 pm.

One of the things that annoys me about myself how I cant sleep in on the weekend anymore. Even after a night of boozing, I am still wide awake at 8 am. I need to work a night shift or something so I'm not so boring anymore.

bigbad · 01-27-2004, 03:34 AM

Depends, when I'm working I frequently get around 4 hours, days off though it's more like 10 to make up for it.

NoseyJoe · 01-28-2004, 08:17 PM

i sleep A LOT on days i dont have to go to class in the morning, but those other days i only get 3 - 4

SiNai · 01-28-2004, 09:01 PM

Wow, I usually get about 7 hours lately (I used to get more) and it's starting to become hard to get up in the morning.. I really feel for some of you guys..

rideough · 02-03-2004, 06:19 AM

I love sleeping and try to get as much as possible.

I get up early but i go to bed at 11 or so...

sixate · 02-03-2004, 06:26 AM

4-5 hours a day. No need for more.

funseeker27 · 02-07-2004, 08:07 PM

Back in university, I'd be able to manage on 3-4 hours a night during exams (and even pass!!) Mind you, by the end of the two weeks or so, I'd be so burnt out, it made for the EASIEST buzz when we went out drinking to celebrate!!

As for now, I still keep down to 5-6 hours during the week, and maybe 7-8 on the weekends,

VitaminH · 02-08-2004, 05:40 PM

It seems I am with the majority. I try to get at least 6-7 a night, occasionally it's less, sometimes more.

Destrox · 02-09-2004, 09:37 AM

I actually needed a 5/6 category.

Since i get anywhere from 5 to, well, 6.

I voted 4/5 since when you only 5.5 hours of sleep you dont feel liek you got no 6 from rounding upwards.

Evil Milkman · 02-09-2004, 11:29 AM

I've started a workout routine just recently, so now I'm trying to get at least 8 hours of sleep in a night for muscle repair. Plus, it wouldn't hurt to get upwards of 9 or more a night, anyway.

Now when the semester gets closer to the end...

kurtisj · 02-10-2004, 02:24 PM

I voted 8-9, but on weekends when i have nothing goin on it is definitely 10+. I love those days when i can get as much sleep as i want, but i also like the days where i wake up and have a full day ahead of me.

-z3r0- · 02-15-2004, 11:02 PM

I usually get about around 5 to 6 hours if I've had a non busy day :P

Blackthorn · 02-19-2004, 08:16 PM

Boy I do much better if I get a good solid 8 but I'm a bit of an addict to the David Letterman show. Ridiculous I know. I think I'll have to take the TV out of the bedroom.

DragonFire · 02-19-2004, 08:22 PM

Interesting subject cause I always wanted to talk about this since I get 3 -4 hours of sleep only per day . No weekends or weekdays are different . Is this normal ?

BuddyHawks · 02-20-2004, 07:50 PM

around 6 hours weekdays, 9 hours weekends.
I didn't go to bed last night.

doncalypso · 02-22-2004, 06:22 PM

I get about 6 to 7 hours of sleep a night, but I definitely feel it's not enough for me though.

Even though I'm only 22 years old and technically still in my prime, I find myself being constantly fatigued and in need of sleep because I'm so busy with school (17-credit course load; 11 hours of lab a week). Furthermore, I have some deadbeat downstairs neighbors who never go to class and play loud music all night until the wee hours of the morning, so I can't get my necessary 6 hours.

WarWagon · 02-22-2004, 06:51 PM

3 if I'm lucky. Between practice, homework, etc, I rarely get to bed before 3, and as a result of some health conditions I have a lot of difficulty falling asleep before 4 or 5, if at all.

jvwgtr · 02-24-2004, 09:20 AM

I always get eight hours, right on the nose.
One of the beauties of working from home is that I never have to use an alarm clock..but I find myself waking up at about 6:30am everyday anyway.

EbolaVirus · 02-24-2004, 05:11 PM

Last night I slept for about an hour. I'm surprised that I actually stayed awake throughout the day.

runawayfetus · 02-25-2004, 06:53 PM

seriously.. fuck school.. i hate getting up early. atleast its almost over. hehe

Ov3rKiLL · 02-25-2004, 07:34 PM
