PPS Day 1

I failed. I slept from 9 PM - 4 AM. I have to get better at control.

PPS commenced

Day 1, 1st 8 hours: Today, I started polyphasic sleeping at about 12:00 NN. This serves as a time marker. There would be a daily update.

Polyphasic sleep

I am really thinking about polyphasic sleeping. I want to ask for help from the physicians at my medical center. Hope it goes well. For one, I will be able to free up about at least 3 more hours per day with such a regimen. Just imagine, 20 more hours a week. It's almost a whole day! But honestly, I should try to maximize my own time before trying it out. Time management plainly may be enough for me.

Becoming

"Knowing is essential; becoming is the process; being is the end result. There is a big difference among these; becoming is the most challenging." -- Joel Duque

Law of Joel

Justice. The law of Joel is justice. It is against injustice. For one, Joel does not like people who overtake other people in lines. Overtaking people in lines is injustice. Thus, Joel becomes concentrated whenever such injustice occurs. Joel becomes assertive, hot-tempered at times, whenever such instance happens.

On a side but related note, I would like to share something. There are about 10 foreigners in our batch in medical school at UERMMMC. To judge a certain person as horny or whatever just by the way that person looks is inherently unfair. I mean, look at thyself first before, pointing and rejoicing at the apparent shortcomings of others. After all, nobody is perfect. And even if a certain person is really hedonistic, that does not mean that s/he will do poorly in medical school. I believe that their is no correlation of a person's point-of-view to his/her academic performance.
