One of the art pieces that were being focused on was Walter Henry Williams’ oil on canvas painting, “A Quick Nap”.

Scientific studies show the benefits that naps can provide for individuals with unusual work schedules. Naps can help a person sleep well at night and remain awake and alert all day. Short naps for people who have bad sleeping habits can helps their internal clock. It proves that napping is a good habit.

What do people think of when they first hear the word nap?

If we do, we will be more awake and capable to reach our full potential as an individual. People don’t realize how important a nap can be. Although popular beliefs suggest that naps are a waste of time, naps actually increase productivity by resting the brain.

The floor wasn't hot relatively, so I slept with the window closed. I woke up an hour before the alarm, but I fell asleep right ahead.

I think the sleepwalker statue should be removed from the campus. The lifelike statue is an amazing artwork, but should not be on any college campus. The statue does not look presentable or appropriate for where it is now. The statue should have never been allowed to stay on the campus as long as it has; the creator of the statue did not ask for permission to place his statue on the campus. The statue should have been removed from the campus or sent to an art museum after students expressed they were uncomfortable with the statue. A petition was signed by more than 500 supporters to help the students’ argument to get rid of the “sleepwalker”. The statue might have been more acceptable at a college with both women and men.

There are a few factors that are essential for life such as breathing or eating, but one of the most essential factor is sleep. Even though the amount of sleep people need differs from one individual to another, the fact is that eventually everyone needs to sleep. People know the importance of sleep, but due to the increased workload and the pressure of society people are getting less sleep. As a result, there has been an increase interest on the effects lack of sleep has on the mind especially the memory of a person. Many questions arose about the relationship between sleep and memory due to the fact most high school and college students have become sleep deprived. For example, does more sleep mean higher grades?

Sometimes I think that sleeping isn’t important because I thought that sleep wouldn’t help your body. Well I was wrong to say that because it does help your body. The amount of sleep you get each day impacts over the course of your life. I was asked if sleep had a huge impact on your health. Well my answer is yes it does have a huge impact. Some people don’t have enough hours of sleep, some have too much, and some don’t know how much their suppose to sleep. Despite the fact that some people think that sleep isn’t important, I’m going to prove that sleep is important

Among the students who continue to struggle are many minority students who show a deficit in math and science readiness. This deficit is apparent in nearly every state in the United States. Blank, Manise, Brathwaite & Langesen (1999), indicate that an examination of performance in all states reveals a point difference of 30 to 50 percentage points between white students and the minority students’ scores on the 8th grade NAEP exam.

There is a giant controversy of whether naps are healthy and benefit your health, or if they just waste your time and make you become even more groggy. Naps can be very beneficial for your health and can improve many aspects of the brain if taken correctly.

I did not sleep well as a child. When I closed my eyes, I was not inundated with calming thoughts, nor fantastical images, but rather assaulted by existential anxieties which coaxed me into undesired ruminations about my being. I believed falling asleep was tantamount to relinquishing control over my ephemeral existence, as there was no guarantee of awakening. I found myself clinging to the present to the detriment of the future, desperately eschewing its hastened arrival for fear that it would not include me in its progression. And yet, every night, hour by hour, I would find myself succumbing to the physical and mental manifestations of sleep deprivation. I would come to plead for the very loss of control that I so viscerally feared, as
