Need suggestions on staying awake at College today
Edited on Tue Nov-23-04 10:08 AM by GingerSnaps
I didn't sleep at all last night (Why does that sound like a song?) I was up doing tons of homework because like a dunkoff I left it to the last minute. I have classes from 10 to 10 pm. Outside of using toothpicks to hold my eyelids open I need some suggestions on how to stay awake. :boring:

I don't think that I will be able to do this today but I have to go in because last week was the horrible day that I thought that it was Monday but instead it was Tuesday :D The election depression has messed me up bad.

How do you stay awake if you haven't slept all night?

I forgot It's going out for wine night :puke: :puke: I will have to come up with an excuse :puke:.

2. If you have only over-the-counter choices:
Coffee & sudafed ( pseudoephedrine ). It's not a full fledged amphetamine, but it has some useful stimulant properties. It's especially noticeable when you are tired.

It has the nice side effect of unclogging your sinuses.

7. diet crack is what keeps me going at work; that, or diet vanilla pepsi

9. if you're not worried about what people will think, try sunflower seeds
i actually just bought two bags of sunflower seeds last night (flavored, ranch and bbq) for my drive home tonight after work (live in Boston, am driving home, which is an hour south and west of buffalo, for a roughly 8 hour drive total). i've found that seeds do way better at keeping me up than any caffeine ever has; b/c i'm actively involved in doing something (even if it is as low-level as moving seeds around my mouth, cracking them, and chewing them). it's always worked for me on long drives late at night; just might not be the best thing for a college classroom:)

10. I can't wait until my classes are over this semester
I hate going to two of my classes because of the BS with the debate on *. The freeper Sisters were laughing at me and I hate that. God I hate that because I might kick their butts if they keep it up :D
