Alone

“But really, though, what are you good at?” “Nothing special. I have things I like to do.” “For instance?” “Hiking. Swimming. Reading.” “You like to do things alone, then?” [Norwegian Wood (1987), Haruki Murakami]

Sleep Cycles

The 2 processes that affect our sleep: the Process-C, the circadian biological clock, and Process-S, the sleep pressure produced by the build up of adenosine. The less gap between Process-S and Process-C, the more awake we are, and the more gap between the Process-S and the Process-C, the more need to sleep we feel. [Why We Sleep (2017), Matthew Walker]
