This way, I can work more effectively and with a more focused mind, since this gives more energy as I had slept for several hours. However, it is necessary to be careful to not oversleep. 

This “strategy” may sound strange, but, even, is supported by some research, for example: https://www.livescience.com/13125-sleep-naps-boost-memory.html

Obviously, this was not something simple, I had three countries and four universities as options, and I had think about every advantage, disadvantage and benefit of those, considering not only my academic goals, but also for the personal ones.

However, I know that I need to keep working (for example in the Harvard Referencing System) in this in order to avoid any future referencing problem.

If I want to success I will have to try to control events in my life, not just wait to see what happens (A sign of my passive behavior); I hope to be able to do so in Term 2.
