it makes no sense.this is the second week of school already, laptops used to be such a cool thing but now that we've got to bring it to school everyday is like shakes head. I managed to enter Ms Baker's class in time, its like a competition between time and my HAHAA, not very long legs?. tomorrow's IVP, I'm kinda scaredddd, really really scared. IVP's gonna take away my Computing Mathematics and Digital Media & Design classes. ): I hope I can catch up with those lessons, ain't very good at them thats whyy the worry.something funny happened to Leslie Phua today. he was sleeping during Programming, Leisher Germs and me were listening to Mr Son and HAHAA suddenly a loud jerk came from beside! Leslie jerked so loud that it gave me a shock sia WaHAHAA! and thats not the worse yet, he drooled on the table! allrightsdon't laugh at ppl, I jerk and drool too, SOMETIMESS. but have your wondered why will yer body jerk when you get to sleep? below is a small research I've done, interestingg. (:Why Does My Body Jerk Before I Fall Asleep?You're just about to drift off into a deep sleep when suddenly you feel like you're falling or rolling downhill on a roller coaster. Then your body jerks suddenly and you're awake. Weird! What's going on?
This body movement, also known as a sleep start, is what doctors and scientists call a hypnic (say: hip-nik) or myoclonic (say: my-uh-klah-nik) jerk.
These jerks usually occur before you enter the deeper stages of sleep and are completely normal. Doctors and scientists aren't really sure why they happen, but they have a few theories.
One theory is that your brain misunderstands the sensation of your muscles relaxing as you drift off to sleep. It's normal for the muscles to relax, but the brain gets confused, and, for a minute, thinks you're falling. In response, the brain causes your muscles to tense up so you "catch yourself" before you fall down.
These jerks can wake a person up, or the person might just keep on sleeping. They're nothing to worry about, so if one of them wakes you up, snuggle back under your quilt, and try to catch some more ZZZs!Sharon Ng, I kinda miss youu. i really do. ):all the best to those who are taking their O Levels! Your can do it! (:makes no sense at all.
