T - 5 Hours

I'm a bit tired right now.  I have not started the schedule yet, but I only had 4.5 hours of "regular" sleep today.  This quarter is turning out to be quite a bit harder than expected, only because the workload is bigger.  Yet, this doesn't bother me too much since I need all the work I can get.  On my brief 2-3 day demo of this schedule (for gauging the degree of sleep deprivation), the time between 3:00 AM and 8:00 AM is by far the worst time cycle ever. No one is up at that time, and I find that I struggle to find a reason to stay awake.  The longer this drags on, the more caged you feel.  Nevertheless, the end goal is totally worth it, and the fruits of your labor start appearing around the 5th or 6th day.
