Observation: Every morning I wake up 10 minutes before I’m supposed to go to work. I then hurry through my morning routine in a rush and barely make it to work on time.
Hypothesis: If I wake up early, I can have a more leisurely morning and be more apt to enjoy life.
Materials: Melatonin, An alarm clock
Procedures:
1. Take melatonin at 9 p.m. on Sunday night.
2. Go to bed at 10 p.m.
3. Toss and turn for what seems like hours and hours
4. Wake up at 6
5. Enjoy the morning!
Results: Overall I had a good morning. I got up, listened to Howard Stern, ate breakfast, sat naked in my bedroom playing “Paranoid” by Black Sabbath on the bass, and then showered and got dressed. I made it to work with time to spare, and was generally feeling okay. Towards the afternoon though, my energy level started to dip. If I continue to wake up early, I’ll probably need to up my caffeine intake.
Conclusion: I failed to disprove my hypothesis, but I still need to examine the long-term effects of this program. I have a feeling that if I continue this indefinitely, it will probably mean that I am getting old, and I am not sure I’m ready for that yet.
