Read chapter about sleep and it brought up some interesting things. Two major thirties are the recuperative and circadian. Recuperative stating that sleep is the bodies mechanism of repairing the damage to homeostasis that being awake contributes. Circadian theory states that from an evolutionary perspective sleep is something that we do so that we don't do something stupid at night and get killed.

Very interesting stuff. The bad news is I have always been a fan of freud but being a psych major will have u learn that no one believes a word he said. Him and all his friends just talked out of their asses.

It's ok I still believe in you man.

Also good stuff on sleep deprivation. Can't wait to finish this class. Four more chapters to go and then a final, but it has honestly been one of my most enjoyable classes to date.

Very interesting book by Pinel, highly recommended.
