hah..!sleep...!is what i should be doing now but i cbf'd...
im a night person...

anyway i dont think that's answering your questions...

well, from a very weird, non0scientific perspective, i think its because the human soul needs to rest, not the body, but the soul. we need dreams and sleep to gather our thoughts about what has happened through the day. and dreams help create our imagination i reckon...i have this weird 'theory' that you know when you get deja vu? it could be cos its similar to something you've dreamt about (well maybe its not *my* theory but its what i believe)

as for liking or wanting to sleep (omg i dunno why but i feel like im answering an english question...must refer to the question...use topic sentences...argh!!) umm i spose cos it give us a break from reality (i know duh) but like our imagination is allowed to run ffree, we don't have to think logically or naturally about our life (or rationally), we just dream, we don't think, well that's why i like sleeping anyway - cos of the dreams.

i hope that helps u...!

lol JOHNSON,..@ the refering to the question,,, hehehe.
hmm, you deserve a.... 10 and a sticker for that answer.. lool.. or wud you prefer the "BIG ASS PAINT BRUSH " (cough)...

anyways,,, yeah i agree, i have myown adapted lil theory, that humankind are users of sleep in that one of the main reasons is that we long to be back in that warm womb like place - were ur "dumb" to the world.... in my major, it also portrays, how when you wake up , its like a betrayal of a harsh birth.. you wish u didnt wake up, and that "sleep" has betrayed you.. but i guess for sum sleep wud not be wanted, as when they sleep they are confronted with their fears.. the whole sleep is deaths twin brother thingi.. hmmm


anyways thAnk u lil man
cheers ;)
:D


oh yeah,, willy boy.. mate your entitled to ur opinion surely enough, but you sound like a real pelican!.. grow up u sound like ur going through the whole I AM MAN,, I AM HUNTER BS

wtf!?

wooow johnson, ur so eloquent! i agree with u, but there is always an argument against.. tee hee.. im bored..

the soul needing rest and escape from reality.. is this true for every person? i mean, for the guilty-minded, hiding secrets or whatever, sleeping/dreaming can just reinforce their guilt through nightmares.

"we need dreams and sleep to gather our thoughts about what has happened through the day." - but isnt gathering our thoughts during the day not escaping reality? i remember going through a depression stage once in my life and all i could think about was the negative aspects of what happened which resulted in no sleep in a looong time..

hmm i'll shuddup now, one more exam to go WOO HOO

yeh i guess i kinda condraticed myself there...the gathering thoughts about day bit...

well maybe, or at least what i spose i do, is those minutes, which can sometimes turn into sleepless hours, before we go to sleep, we sort of run things over in our head. i dont know if it happens to you guys, but when i think of stuff that's happened during the day i tend to dream about them when i sleep. like once in year 10 or something, aaaages ago, i was atching days of our lives (taped) just before i went to bed and bo and hope and stefano were all lost in a sewerage (sp?) system thing. and i remember thinking how 'exciting' that was, that my life was as exciting as that,,and that night i remember dreaming that _I_ was in the parisian sewerage system doing something exciting or something like that..

i also sort of dreamt the 'apocalypse' a few weeks ago. it was a reeeally vivd dream. like it was really banal at first, we were all sitting in the library, and tina, one of my friends, was in a wheelchair (cos her father the minister got busted for drugs (???)...made no bloody sense at all but it did in my dream...so yeh i think that dreams don't try to make sense of your reality, but rather your imagination fucks with reality and you get a twisted version of reality? like has *bits* of reality but also a lot of fuction...i dunno) annnyway so we were in the library and tina wanted to go to maths, so we went, and our maths teacher was teaching us some boring maths, then tim told her to shut up cos there was this huge cyclone coming towards us (out the window), then this cyclone turned into a flood....

and before we knew it all these safari animals from africa were flooding past us , and then WE started to get dragged into the flood. i remember going next door and hearing kat say "oh my god its the apocalyspe". and then we travelled along in this flood for a long time, and eventually we arrived at some snowy place...like it was friggin cold and snowy, and the classroom we had travelled in had turned into a train carriage.

and then i woke up, and in my fucked-uppedness due to such a weird dream i remember thinking, wow, god is so smart...he's displacing us from our normal climatic regions so that we die, cos we were in some snowy place with no warm clothing, and all the african animals were in carlingford...i realised latert that that made NO fuCKING SENSE!~!

anyway that was the end of my long dream. i jsut had to write it down somewhere. its the most realistic dream ive ever had...ive woken up a few times thinking im hearing flood noises...:eek:

hmmm... sleep.

usually just of need for physical rest, but dreams are weird -- i reckon they're just your brain's way of making sense of what happened in the past day -- often characters/things/events that i hadn't given much though or emphasis -- minor stuff in the day -- have big roles on dreams. can't think of anything for that, but, well, dreams are weird. the last one i had i was in an aeroplane and it exploded -- but i just kept going forward as if nothing happened. odd.

i have a freind who tells me that he can realise he's in a dream and then do what he wants -- fly, go to places, etc etc -- i don't reckon he can but i thought it was worth noting.

I slept very much. But it is my happiness. My sleep time is from ten hours to fifteen hours. I woke up about noon everyday. I wanted to sleep for two more hours. But I had to go to juku. When I come home, I went to bed immediately. I like "goro-goro" in bed. I am the happiest in a day. And I like to watch "dream",too. Dreams are very mysterious. Because I sleep many times. That's why I like to sleep very much.

I haven't had a realistic dream in ages either. However the last one I had was seriously satanic and I remember waking up and being truley disgusted at myself for dreaming what I did. Maybe my mind was trying to show me I had a repressed evil side to my personality or somethin...wierd shit, I'm gunna stop thinkin about it now.
