    24 ang nagawa ko, and I have to say I don’t want to to it again. I’ve become more assertive when it comes to sleep time now. Di ko mapakawalan ang 8 hours sleep time, 1 to 4 hours if shit really needs to be done, but I still have to sleep somehow.

    On recharge time, I only remember once na natulog ako ng 6 am and woke up around 9 or 10 pm (?) that evening. Luckily I didn’t feel dizzy or anything, but quite well rested. Hungry AF tho.

    On a sort of relevant note, this was around the time I stumbled upon the sickness Fatal Familial Insomnia (FFI), which is basically a disorder that can be passed down wherein the affected person dies slowly because they can’t sleep.

    Experts estimate that only 100 people in 30 families across Europe, China, Japan, Australia, and the U.S. are carriers of the gene that causes this disease.

    Source is WebMD. That’s like a terrible death sentence for a family.

    Scary shit.
