Woke up at 7:00 AM fine with my phone alarm . Man, I was really tired from 4:30-5:30 last night or morning or whatever. At first I was feeling more tired than before I went to sleep but feeling just a little bit better already, today is gonna be tough.

Ah yeah, feeling a lot more tired suddenly. Heh, I can last to 5:30 AM!

Erm, it's weird when you set an alarm for 12 AM and set it to buzz and it just doesn't go off. So, woke up at almost 1 AM instead of 12AM. Charging my phone now to use that, other one not reliable enough. Currently feel pretty good and not very tired.

Ah yeah, my first attempt at a sleep was actually at 3:30 after the last day of school today. So I’ll just skip day 1.1
Now, I’m not really the kind of guy to have naps or go to sleep early, depending on your definition of an early time to go to sleep. So, I laid down on my bed and closed my eyes and tried to drift off, not much luck. I got up at about twenty five minutes since laying down and just got back up, not too exciting. I will definitely be able to fall asleep at 10:30 PM though. So hopefully that will be more amusing.

As I journal my adaptation I’ll use this key.
Day x=The actual 24 hour day I’ve been doing it. Fourth of April day 1. Fifth of April day 2 etc.
x(decimal point)x=The period I’m awake after a sleep.
So
Day 1.1 would be after I wake up from my 5:30 AM sleep
Day 1.2 will be after I wake up from my 3:30 PM sleep
Day 1.3 will be after I wake up from my 10:30 PM sleep
Make sense? Okay, good.

Hey everyone. This blog will follow me on my journey to adapt to a polyphasic sleep schedule. That is, sleeping more than one time during the day. This may be a foreign idea to you but it has become quite popular especially due to the power of the internet. Polyphasic is an umbrella term for a variety of sleeping schedules reducing the amount of time you sleep from two to five hours.
I will be attempting one called Triphasic. As you can probably guess, that’s three times a day.
5:30-7:00 AM Sleep 1
7:00-3:30 PM Wake 1
3:30-5:00 PM Sleep 2
5:00-10:30 PM Wake 2
10:30-12:00 AM Sleep 3
12:00-5:30 AM Wake 3
As I go to school from 8:30 to 2:50 every weekday I needed one where I could have a long enough gap for school. This was the best one.
I’m doing this mainly because it’s something different, as well as the fact that you get more time during the day. If you are interested, the internet has lots of resources and trypolyphasic.com is a pretty good forum to go to for advice and general discussion.
