Have you ever pulled a real all-nighter?

<p>5 hour energy is the way to go-- took one at 1:30-2:00 A.M. and was fine until 8. Didn’t finish the APES project so I just slept through school and finished it over the weekend, but was still worth the effort. </p>

<p>I would have had a ton of 3-4 A.M. nights last semester, but I got into the habit of going to bed at 12 or 1 and then waking up between 4:00 and 5:30 A.M. and working until 7:30 to finish homework. For some reason, doing things at odd times just seemed enjoyable to me, so why not : P- although I usually wasted time in waking up.</p>

<p>@Niquii make sure to post your findings on cc, where our motto is “tell us about your sleeping habits please”</p>

<p>Kinda. I had to finish my AP English project, so I was up until around 4 (procrastination!), and once I finally went to bed I couldn’t fall asleep. </p>

<p>The next day, Physics was the worst. I just couldn’t stay awake for the notes.</p>

<p>@Good Will do, sir! I won’t let you down.</p>

45

<p>I’m definitely holding you to this.</p>

46

<p>So what are some of the things you guys do to help you stay up?</p>

47

<p>I pull all nighters all the time, for midnight releases of video games, shoes, and sometimes because i procrastinated on a project</p>

48

<p>@overachiever I use the perfect combination of energy drinks, adrenaline, and teenage romance/video games depending on the current state of my social life.</p>

49

<p>I came close at a seventh grade camping trip but then fell asleep for an hour… Other than that, I’ve always managed to go to bed by 4:00 (procrastination yeah!).</p>

50

<p>I find it really hard to stay up past midnight, but if I do because I’m with friends or whatever I ‘wake up’ around 3 and from then I’m not really tired at all until the next afternoon. I guess I’m just a morning person :)</p>

51

<p>For school? Pahaha no. I don’t care THAT much. An all nighter for school is anything past midnight for me. It’s way easier to just go to sleep and wake up early instead of trying to push past the tiredness.</p>

52

<p>@fantasiekey Wow you were so close!!!</p>

53

<p>I stayed up until 7:30 AM once, but I ended up getting 2 hours of sleep because I had cross country practice that day. I’ve stayed up until 5 on probably 4 or 5 occasions during the school week (almost always for academics; I’m a huge procrastinator).</p>

54

<p>Yeah…I was on vacation and had a presentation in school the next day. The flight went until 6 am and I was in the middle seat. I felt so crowded that I couldn’t sleep.</p>

55

<p>About once a week in middle school… I suck at sleeping.</p>

56

<p>I pulled a legit all nighter twice this year. Both nights were a result of Model UN. One time I had procrastinated packing for a 4 day trip until 11 pm the night before. Oops!</p>

57

<p>Let’s keep this thread going! These stories are very amusing!</p>

58

<p>Least amount of sleep I got on a school night was about an hour… but I have pulled actual all nighters over the summer. I can rarely sleep at sleepovers (my friends always claim the couch, so I always end up on the floor -.-), so once I stayed up for around 35 hours straight.</p>

59

<p>Yes, once. Sophomore year, my 10-page final English paper that I needed to pass that quarter (and probably the semester) was due the next day, and I had changed topics a couple days before, because my previous topic sucked as far as finding sources, and I was procrastinating, so I had almost nothing.</p>

<p>I started around 9:00 PM and didn’t finish until about 6:30 in the morning. I was in a total daze, no idea how I pulled it off. It was hell, and I couldn’t even make it through the rest of the day. After I went to my English class about halfway through the day and turned in the paper I went home “sick.”</p>

<p>But I got an A on the paper! So I guess it was worth it?</p>

<p>@ShadowMist 35 hours straight? That is insane!!!</p>

<p>@DavidSSabb94 Wow that must have been brutal. I’m glad you got an A though!</p>
