Importance of Sleep Essay

wind whisking through the leaves on a tree, that’s the noise that wakes me. At first, I think I’m imaging it, and try to return to the deep sleep I left, but then it comes again, louder this time. I role over half asleep to find two tiny hands reaching out for me in the dark. Green eyes pierce through the blackness, like two tiny moons in the sky. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I groan before sitting up. At this point, I look like a bear coming out of hibernation. I’m confused, my eyesight is…

I woke up to (what should be) a normal day. My brothers (Joe Collar(second oldest child), Jim Collar(Third oldest child), Bill Collar( fourth oldest child). I heard the snoring of each of my brothers as I made my bed. I checked outside like I did every day to check if the mysterious man in black who had shown up the day my dad disappeared.

Sleep is a state of consciousness because when we are asleep, our brain remains active and working. With the invention of the electroencephalogram (EEG) researchers are better able to understand the brain activity of individuals as they prepare to sleep and after they fall asleep.

The different types of brain waves…

It was a starry night, Karan and I were sitting on my bed, it was about 9:00 PM. We both had nothing to do, I didn’t want to wake my parents, I had an idea; “Let’s jump off my bed!” That’s when things went downhill, sometimes we would flip or jump and do straddle jumps in the air. At the end of my pinkish, orange bed sheet, there was a bed post we jumped from. I told Karan to go to the bed post and do a jump facing the bed. When he jumped off he was beaming; when I saw him next, he…
