[Studio: Environment] Project 2 – Sleep Time and Quality Tracking
Sleep Time and Quality Tracking
Back to high school, I stayed in a very strict boarding school where every student had to follow the strict daily schedule and study diligently. While most of the students couldn’t get enough sleep because of the heavy study load, I was called the God of Sleep, because no matter how stressed we were, I always had very good quality and enough time for sleep and having dreams. However, it seemed like I lost this ability for the first time from this semester. All the magical dreams are replaced by nightmares. Sometimes even when I sleep for enough time, I still feel exhausted the next morning. To solve this problem, I set a general sleeping schedule for myself and started to track my activities before sleep, which may interfere with my sleeping quality, and my feeling for the next morning after sleep.
According to my academic schedule and personal habits, I set the standard sleeping schedule from 12:30am – 9:30am (9 hours).

After: I technically woke up when the sun was not up yet because my stomach wasn’t feeling well after the drinking. I constantly woke up about every half an hour and then finally decided to get out of bed at 9:15am. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel tired. I had a little headache but after a shower, I felt sober and came to D12 to work directly in the morning.
