Everytime I choose to sleep early (read: EVERY TIME), I get tonnes of calls and messages on my mobile phone. I kid you not. It wouldn’t be just one call, or just one message, it would be a flood of them. Some people even have to call/message twice. Can’t I get some peaceful sleep just for once?
I didn’t sleep well last night. Some time in the middle of the night, I heard the phone ring a few times. Being too tired, I just couldn’t get up to answer the calls. Nevertheless, my sleep was disturbed. I did not (and cannot) switch my mobile phone to silent mode simply because I need the alarm to wake me up! Instead, phone calls and messages took over the task last night.
When I checked my phone this morning, I had 3 missed calls and 6 messages, all from different people. The worse thing was 2 people had to contact me exactly 1 hour after I went to bed. I thought I could sleep early and wake up the next morning with a fresh mind, but I wasn’t even given the chance to rejuvenate! Having a class test to study for, the Management for the Pharmacist project to prepare for, and a PBL session to get ready for certainly do not help in this situation.
I just don’t understand. Why only when I choose to sleep early? Why???
Well, maybe because the topic of today’s PBL session is insomnia, and having a personal experience of awakening in the middle of the night will give me a better understanding about the sleeping disorder, so I could priovide a good explanation about it during the discussion.
How very nice indeed.

Isn’t there a setting on the phone where you can put the ringer on silent while having the alarm clock not silent? I’m pretty sure I can do that with my cell phone. If not, why don’t you get an alarm clock? I’m sure you can get one for cheap somewhere.

Hi! got your comment about comments. I encourage you to post that in the thread–clearly there is something wrong with the system.
Comments are managed in two places, which is confusing. You looked in the options/discussion settings, right?
And, let’s see if I can comment here as a start! :)

it worked!!! I wonder if you have this set to be a “private” blog accidentally? I’m logged into wordpress, so I was able to comment.
Definately start a thread in the forum–that way we can walk you through the fix, plus there’s a record for other folks with the same problem. Good luck!
