Sleep Deprivation

London is a city that thrives on life, meaning that people don’t sleep, and those that do don’t sleep enough (unless of course you’re a 4 month old baby and live a life similar to Garfield). For the rest of us, those that consider themselves part of the working class, sleep is really a luxury. It’s as if the clocks are being sped up in London, time just doesn’t seem the same. I could do a lot more in Cape Town in one day than I can in London, and no it’s not because of the tubes, the time they take out of your day is about the same that driving would back home. Maybe there’s just more to do in London, people to see, places to be, things to do etc.

Although personally I don’t think so, I just think that people get caught up in the constant rush of all of those around them. Although we work the same amount of hours, spend the same amount of hours travelling to and from work (compared to those in Cape Town), there is just less time to do the things you want to do.

Trying to sleep late on weekends to 'catch up' on sleep doesnt work either.
