Time has flown in my honors seminar, Sleep-Starved: Science, Faith, and Sleep, this year. It has been enlightening to say the least. In my readings, I've learned about the many different stages of sleep (1 through REM) and how important each can be in the body's recovery process. I've learned about circadian rhythms affects on the human body and mind and its sleep drive. I've also learned a myriad of sleep related vocab words that I cannot think of from the top of my head, but I'd know them if I see them.
As is customary for the middle of a college semester, midterms are beginning on the Wayland campus. I always try to thoroughly prepare for my midterms because of the weight that they can carry depending on the professors preferences. I am sure that I will be prepared for all of my midterms including the Sleep midterm. I think what I enjoy most about studying for the midterm is being able to see all of the new words I have added to my vocabulary. I think an eloquent vocabulary is something that should be commended and respected by others, so I always like adding words to mine.
I haven't put much thought into my Sleep research paper. I would be very interested to explore the effects that exercise can have on a person's sleep patterns.
