Sleep paralysis

Finley stated “As students enter adolescence, hormonal changes make it difficult for them to compensate for early school start times by going to bed earlier. The effect of school start times should be…

The half-dawn light was more eerie than complete darkness. I had just been awoken by some rustling that sounded as if two raccoons were wrestling in my garden. That wouldn’t have been a surprise since my week had already been terrible. Those darn kids just had to pelt my poor flowers with rocks! That really hurt me, since those marigolds were one of my few sources of my happiness. I was pretty sure that my son, John would not hear the noise since he was a heavy sleeper. So I decided roll out of…

tired and will never get that sleep back. Even naps can't help our sleep deprivation. Many parents and teachers have noticed this and ask, "Should our schools start later?" Many people have a lot of controversy about this topic. There are many people that think that schools shouldn't start later, but they should. Our schools need to start later in the morning. First of all, when schools start early students' health is in danger. Studies show that students who sleep longer were less likely to…

jungle and its complement of bugs were bothering them to the point that they had to return to camp and zip themselves in their tent. A little while later, they decided to get some sleep and go out searching again and mid-day the next day when the bugs weren’t so bad. So in complete silence, they slowly drifted of to sleep. Jacob woke up suddenly in the middle of the night to…

On January 7, 2016 at approximately 0420 hours, while passing breakfast trays in pod K, I opened room #45 from my touch screen computer for Inmate James Tate #14789 to come and receive his breakfast tray. While Tate was walking out of his room, he stopped at the table in front of his room and started talking to Inmate Peter Long #257415 about a tray that he owed him over a bet that they agreed on. At that time, I observed Tate strike Long in the chest area with a closed fist. At that time…

When I got back to my room, I laid in bed and tried to fall asleep hoping I could just sleep it off and when I’d wake up the feeling would have passed. For about 20 minutes I tossed and turned in my bed, still feeling like I was spinning and got very nauseous. So I gave up on the idea of sleeping, once again as I stood up out of bed I got…

We just spent the past five and a half hours crammed in a little 2007 ford focus. I have an extreme headache caused by my little sister from her obnoxiously singing Christmas music the whole way here. I tried to block it out and put my headphone on and take a nap but just as I got comfortable she would kick me or jab her overly large feet into my back. I would complain to my mom but she would just explain that she has the right to nap just as much as I do. We pulled up to the bed and breakfast.…

I wake to the sound of my alarm at 6am. Opening the floral shades, I find the sky is still dark, the world is still asleep. But why sleep in in a place like Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey when I can sleep in anytime I want at home. Tiptoeing down the stairs, the floorboards creak beneath me. The house is old, used, weathered. It's nothing like my newly built, modern house in Chicago, but something about that makes it feel more homely. The smell of coffee wafts through the air. I pour a cup, take a…

Day One-The Woman Snow…. The smell of gunpowder and red snow scattered everywhere…. I hear a person calling my name”Alba! Alba wake up! Abla!”. It's a woman, she starts running away i hear “After her! I'll deal with the dead body!” Am i dead? How did i even get here?..Suddenly a gunshot to my leg fired, i lie completely still without moving a muscle. The soldier run after the girl and all i hear is a woman screaming and a gunshot fired to stop the yelling. I close my eyes slowly and fell…
