Iv'e noticed on my trip from collage to home on the bus I often fall asleep, either listening to music or not, but always wake up within a half mile of my stop, but never past it. I seem to be able to safely sleep and wake up just before I get there. I had a theroy that I'm not actually asleep, and my eyes must be open, but Iv'e had passengers confirm my eyes were closed, and that I was snoring. Also there was one exception to this, when I thought 'I'm going to miss my stop this time' slept, and woke up in the village after my own. Does anyone else experience this, do you think it is normal? And more importantly, how does my body know when to wake up? The journey doesn't always take the same time. The few constants are
1) I sit at the back, on the right hand side, next to the window, or near the front, behind the driver (I live in England)
2)I wake up, sometimes there's drool at the corner of my mouth, I doubt i'm meditating.
3)I'm always deprived of sleep on a collage day, usually 1-6 hours sleep for that day.

I think it may be that while you are asleep the subconsious takes over your body while the consious is sleeping. Your subconsious picks up the signals or primal feelings you don't pay attention to and wakes you up when you need to be awake.
Yeah. You're sleep deprived. And some people sleep with their eyes open. You're a normal college kid... Except for the eyes open part.
Maybe the bus has to do with how many bumps are in the road or something that you are not picking up on but, your mind is.
i believe that it has to do with you subconsiuse detective thew number of stops the bus make (alowing for normal trafic conditions), because this only happens after the 3rd or 4th time i ride the same route into town.
