[The Knight's Dream] by Antonio de PeredaAs according to
Wikipedia, "There is no universally agreed biological definition of dreaming." and that "General observation shows that dreams are strongly associated with rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, during which an electroencephalogram shows brain activity to be most like wakefulness."
Mhmm why all that sudden posting about dreams. Well ~ they are the reason why I'm awake @ this hour today. I had fallen asleep at a decent time earlier. Was kinda tired. But unfortunately that rest wasn't peaceful. I got upset, I woke up... and I can't get back to sleep. It's night afterall. The time when I'm at my most awake.
*sigh* Itz getting frm bad to worse lah. I have difficulty falling asleep. When I sleep, I dream & I don't rest. Wtf manz. It'z probably coz my mind isn't at rest. But srsly if there's a way to stop myself from over-thinking I would. A bullet in the head would help. Problem is where to obtain the bullet. Next problem is to obtain the gun. Arrgghhh ~ I ain't making much sense right now, am I?
