Working 8 1/2 hours on 3 hours of sleep is neither logical nor pleasant. It is not something I would recommend to anyone else.

Speaking of sleep, that reminds me of all the interesting dreams I've been having. I'll spare the details, because I think that listening to other people's dreams is pretty boring unless they're exceptionally funny, weird, or they include me in some way. It was just so bizarre that I had two different dreams on the same exact subject two nights in a row. Of course that makes sense because it was something I'd been thinking about much of the day, especially right before I fell asleep. I've found that it's very probable that if you're thinking hard about something right before you fall asleep, then you will have a dream about it, sort of a continuation of what you were thinking while you were awake. My dreams were so interesting because they brought to my attention a few previously subconscious concerns that I never realized existed.

That reminded me of this article a read a couple days ago from Newsweek called What Dreams are Made of. I was excited about the article because dreams have always fascinated me. I've always wondered if they have some sort of real significance, a hidden symbolical meaning just waiting to be deciphered. Maybe figuring out a dream will give you some sort of guidance or direction in your life, perhaps even be prophetic. I don't really believe that, but sometimes it's funny to think about. Anyway, I was rather disappointed by the article because it was mostly about scientific psychological studies, a lot of things I'd already heard before, and ultimately ended with the conclusion that still yet, no one knows exactly why people dream the things they do and what their dreams mean. It did suggest that people who are more introverted and psychologically oriented tend to have more vivid dreams and remember them better than more practical thinkers. I suppose I fit into the former category, so that could be a theory as to why I have so many dreams that I remember so well. Although it makes sense that my mind would be in constant use while I'm asleep. I mean, my mind never ever stops thinking about things over and over again all day everyday, so why should it stop while I'm asleep?
