Tips to stay awake

I always fall asleep when its cold, so turning down the temperature might make it worse for you. It will have a lot about switching your schedule so you can last longer. Also try changng the times you eat your meals to later so you have energy and hunger, it sounds logical to me.

Or you could just do your work earlier instead of wasting time on the internet. Unplug your computer and don't go back on until you've finish GOTDAM

alternatively just suck on some valerian root for good times sake.

Yeah, agreed with Megatron.

But if you still insist on staying awake:

- heat does the trick to me although it's a double-bladed sword as it makes you a bit tired but you still can't sleep

- thinking about something interesting and/or just letting your mind fly around. if you bury yourself waist-deep in some boring paper work you'll never get anything done *unless* you keep on thinking about something interesting like sex or drugs or stuff. this can be tough on creativity though, because your mind isn't on the work

so why the fuck am I bothering with this shit, get some good night's sleep and work when normal people do you lazy cunt face

Go to sleep earlier. Alcohol can also give a temporary boost, but it makes you even sleepier after a while. In that case you should open a new can of beer. The downside is, you get very drunk using this method.

Energy drinks make you very sleepy when the effect wears off, I've noticed.

Looking at this helps me to stay awake. Just 5 minutes of intense staring from a range of 10 in makes you not only alert but also more intelligent.

You need protective eye gear or extreme eye damage can follow.

you should also piss on your bed so you can't go to bed anyway

All that will happen though is you fall asleep in class. Looks like you're too dumb for university, buttshit.

I have a problem with motivation and it becomes a struggle to do my homework. What should i do?

I drink ONE cup of COLD coffee. When it doesn't help, I go out and run around the block. It helps when it's chilly outside.

Cold coffee makes you poop though.

Ah, yes... the Energy Binge.
Sometimes it doesn't work at all.

Sometimes the alcohol keeps you searching for more
of it. Massive, crazy-drunk euphoric/megalomaniacal
energy.

Imagine if you could have back all of the cans and bottles
of alcoholic beverages you have consumed.

You could build a little shack for yourself.

I usually listen to 2112 or Close to the Edge, get all fired up and can't sleep for hours.

Heh, I do that sometimes (except usually with King Crimson or J Tull). Also, guardian's death coffee works wonders.

One time, I had to stay up late, so I consulted the death coffee recipie in order to stay awake. I was disappointed that it's just hot water + lots of coffee. I was expecting something more creative, like there'd be tabasco and absinthe in there or something.

Megatron · Post by **Megatron** » Sun Nov 06, 2005 8:14 pm

you should try my tabasco and absinthe recipe, it has plenty of both.

So how did staying away go geno, did you manage to fight enter sandman or could you not resist the sweet siren song of an eternal slumber?

I just found a reason to give my work late and ended up trying to make Cedega work on Linux.

The teacher always lets it in. Those energy drinks make me so worked up, I litterally jump. I even felt like running around the block at 2 A.M: Example

I can never work anymore, I'm not used to it, besides French, English and Philosophy, I don't need to work. Half of the time during my computer classes we play Counter-Strike(They want to play that) or Fallout(alone). We already know most of the things.

I'll try coffee out.
