Uhm... are there 24 hour gyms in the first place?
(Paiseh I'm not the gymming type). But if it were, you can go whenever you're free.
Well, California Fitness is not 24 hrs. They're affiliated with an organisation in the US called, '24 Hours Gym' and there, they really are 24 hours but here, they're open on Mon-Sat from 6am to midnight and on Sun and Public HOlidays, from 8am to 10pm.Originally posted by Kenashi:If i am not mistaken, california gyms is 24 hrs one
If they're open 24 hrs, I'll be a happy beaver!
There's nothing that helps guarantee a good, uninterrupted deep sleep of the highest quality than when you're totally tired out after a gym session. 
A piece of gruesome gossip... a pal in Arizona told me that the 24 Hours Gym in Phoenix had a murder case recently - apparently, a lady went there for a workout at the ungodly time of 3am and was found murdered in the locker room.
So much for exercise being good for you. -

Hehhe! -
okay.. last night, i said i was narcoleptic as a gag...
today, i'm not so sure anymore.. was walking out of a room at office and fell into "microsleep" for a couple of seconds
what the heck is happening to me? -
Insufficient good-quality sleep. You've got to sleep more. Have you read the articles I extracted in this thread?Originally posted by the Bear:okay.. last night, i said i was narcoleptic as a gag...

what the heck is happening to me?
Last night, I found myself asleep whilst standing up, one hand opening a drawer, the other hand on a gauze pack inside.
Worse, I was operating a machine and charting the stats when I fell asleep a few times and had to retrace my steps... then probably pressed some button I shouldn't have, and terminated something! Luckily it wasn't a fatal mistake.
Night duties are bad, but worse for women during erm... 'certain times'. But I guess this could be one of the dilemmas many shift workers face. You no longer have a 'circadian rhythm', so to speak, and your entire internal clock is screwed up. -
but this only happens when i'm on morning shifts...
the afternoon and night shifts are a breeze...
i'm destined to be a vampyr

OK, I'm a full-fledged Night Owl now, I've earned my wings!
Stepped out of my house at 4pm yesterday and was out the whole night until early this morning when I came home at about 7am.
What in the world is happening to me? I didn't even touch coffee nor chocolates too! -

i belongs to the red one above~Originally posted by Rhonda:Interesting info derived from a survey of Americans in Medicine.net :
What Kind of Sleeper are You?
Read the article for details. Apparently, 17% of those surveyed are Night Owls and they exhibit the following characteristics :
These mostly male night owls are employed and have the longest work week (47 hours compared with 42 hours overall), although they are least likely to work regular day shifts. They sleep less than other groups (5.2 hours per night) but nap more, with two-thirds taking two or more naps each week. They feel they need fewer hours of sleep each night to function at their best (5.2 hours), and nearly half say they get more sleep than they need. Members of this group drink more caffeine than other groups (4.0 cups/cans vs. 2.8 overall). Seven in 10 frequently experience a symptom of insomnia, and a smaller ratio says that they frequently get a good night's sleep. About half of this group is single, and the same percentage would be classified as obese.
So, do you see yourself in the patterns identified? -
Oi, Eric! I know you're also quite havoc one!! You never admit it only! But I know what you did last summer!Originally posted by EricDraven:Havoc Rhonda!!!

Eric was probably prowling the rooftops with The Cure's BURN burning up the background
but seriously, in the midst of severe caffeine withdrawals... head hurting like a *&$#*^ -
Eric, you heard of the tale of a little wooden puppet called 'Pinocchio'?Originally posted by EricDraven:Huh? *innocent look*
I guai guai stay at home for both days of this weekend! Remember what happens when he told lies?
What they forgot to add because it was too gruesome for the little kids who were listening, was that nasty big birds came to perch on Pinocchio's nose and they poo'd and pee'd on it. And then, Woody Woodpecker came and pecked the hell outta his nose. And it was sooo darn ()&*!@#( painful that Pinocchio never dared to lie again.
And they lived happily ever after. The End!
