Dylan is a hard-working medical school applicant and Stanford alum balancing work, MCAT studying, while still aiming to maintain healthy habits and get enough sleep. He knows the importance of sun exposure, and realizes that it helps his mood, but has trouble getting outside when he is forced inside due to window-free classrooms as well as work. He does acknowledge that windows in his residence help him get sunlight, but needs to physically get himself outside more. While he tries to get outside after waking up early (5:45-6 AM), he has concerns about sunburns or dehydration at later hours in the day, which can dampen his desire for sun exposure. Dylan’s priority is work at this time, but he desires consistent time to get sun exposure, due to its positive effects.
