<p>How the hell do you pay attention or atleast pretend to look attentive after an all nighter? I will try... heres my formula</p>
<p>Procrastination+Finshed Homework=all nighter
all nighter=sleep in first period</p>
<p>Therefore
Procrastination+ Finished Homework= Sleep in first Period.
Whos saids you can't apply math in life? :)</p>
<p>For some reason, I can't fall asleep in class no matter how much sleep I get.</p>
<p>I guess that's a good thing :D. I never had to pull off any all nighters for school but I'm sure that'll change this year.</p>
<p>What grade are you in?</p>
<p>I pulled an all-nighter last night. Not because I wanted to- I just couldn't fall asleep for the life of me...</p>
<p>Somehow I managed not to completely loose it during the day. It was slightly harder to focus, but I did perfectly fine on my math test and every other subject afterwards...</p>
<p>I'm a junior now.</p>
<p>Wow, i could fall alseep anytime afterschool. Exausted from all academic classes.</p>
<p>i am unable to fall asleep in class. otherwise i wouldnt be conscious for any religion class</p>
<p>Wow, I feel like I'm the only one awake by choice.</p>
<p>And geez, school hasn't even started.</p>
<p>I can't sleep in class unless we aren't learning a lesson. It's rude.</p>
<p>^
Best advice ever.</p>
<p>I do ECs after school. :O As a Junior, the latest I ever stayed up 'til was 2am. Even if I wasn't able to get the homework done, I feel like I HAVE to get my sleep. I learn most from class discussions and lectures, so I have to be awake and conscious for those. :|</p>
<p>I've never had to pull an all-nighter (soph now), and hopefully never will. Listen in class, do the HW in the afternoon/evening. That's my formula, and I have tons of free time. And this is in the all-choking Indian education system!</p>
<p>Basically, just learn to manage your time well. Be organized. My friends ask me how I manage to excel in school and participate in a lot of EC's. My answer? I know how to manage my time. Simple as that.</p>
<p>Personally, I'd rather get my sleep and be healthy than pull an all-nighter in order to finish homework. I won't stay up past 12:30 because if I get less than 6 hours of sleep, I can't concentrate in class. I can't sleep in class, either, because I have to sit in the front row. ):</p>
<p>However... my sleep pattern is crazy right now, and I need to fix that... by pulling an all-nighter! Does anybody have tips for staying awake?</p>
<p>"For some reason, I can't fall asleep in class no matter how much sleep I get."
"i am unable to fall asleep in class."
"I can't sleep in class unless we aren't learning a lesson. It's rude."</p>
<p>Are you kidding me? What do you do during class? The day would go by so slowly if i couldn't sleep. That's actually kind of impressive. I could never stay awake for an entire day of school.</p>
<p>The most difficult part of completing homework, I feel, is convincing myself to begin. I am the Queen of Procrastination, heir to the throne of Slackerville. Hopefully, I will be able to relinquish my title this upcoming (sophomore) year. </p>
<p>Pulling an all-nighter is better with friends. I had some good (but sleepy) times last year when almost everyone from my World Civilizations II Honors class was up all night instant messaging each other (there was a horrible teacher) and completing a project. </p>
<p>Anyway, my point is, don't suffer alone. Chances are, there are other people in your classes who procrastinate and stay up all night.</p>
<p>The past 2 years ive had chronic sleep problems where I slept through around 70% of every class, and only made it out with a 94 gpa w/ hardest courseload....hopefully this year I can stay awake and pay attention ^^ </p>
<p>i think it was mostly cause every night I only got 5 hours of sleep because I found it INCREDIBLY hard to fall asleep</p>
<p>i need 9.5 hours of sleep to be fully awake. that's kind of hard considering i wake up at 6:00, get home at 5:30, and have tons of chores and responsibilities, LOTS of homework, etc. but whatever, i manage.</p>
<p>i can't ever fall asleep in class though. my classes have 10-20 people, so the teacher knows each and every person and everybody is clearly visible. falling asleep in class is the kind of thing that is incredibly stupid to do. one time i was really really sick (i refuse to miss school), and it was right after lunch and i was feeling miserable and tired, and started to drift off, but my friends woke me before i got in trouble. whew. </p>
<p>this upcoming year (school starts the 11th) the schedule is changed a lot so there is almost no free time in school to get hw done, so i'll just be extra efficient when i get home and won't waste time eating snacks or godforbide, going on cc. (wonder how long i'll be able to keep that up).</p>
<p>and i plan to be in bed by 9. hahaha. oh boy. i'll probably be able to do that maybe once throughout the whole year.</p>
<p>i'm starting to miss summer already...</p>
<p>Even though I think time management is great, I'm too lazy to do it. :]
I took two hardcore science courses at summer@Brown, and that was when I began to pull all-nighters. . .I had a lot of catching up to do considering I haven't even been in an honors science class since 9th grade. . .anyway, the moral of my nocturnal tale is. . .don't pull all-nighters!!! They are bad for your sanity, your brain, AND your skin. Sleep is very important. Trust me, I know! :]</p>
<p>Latest I ever stayed up to was 3:00, and that wasn't even for school... it was editing for newspaper. I still get droopy-eyed in humanities classes though, especially after lunch. I had an APUSH teacher who had the best droning voice; it just lulls your right to sleep, and stupidly, I chose to sit in the front row, right smack dab in the middle where he has a full view of me nodding off. At least he didn't hold it against me, because I'd slave away on his homework for more than two hours a night. All-nighters? Forget it. Those raccoon eyes are already prominent enough thank you very much.</p>
