<p>I need to read/do homework, but I'm tired already - how can I stay awake?</p>
<p>I've got punk music playing to pump myself up, and I drank a cup of tea (re my last thread, I had a Chai teabag laying around, and just a tiny amount of root beer in it made it amazing. Or maybe it was already good. idk)</p>
<p>And I tried gently splashing meself with water, with little benefit</p>
<p>Exercising really wakes you up. Have you tried that?</p>
<p>haha I forgot about that. I may just do that. Plus it’s slightly chilly out, so that will further wake me up. :)</p>
<p>It works out nicely then. 
Good luck with your work.</p>
<p>Take a nap.</p>
<p>whatever you do, do not even approach the vicinity of your bed. you will be out instantly and wake up the next morning going **** **** ****</p>
<p>Wash your face, take a shower, drink Starbucks, blast some music.
And what Seahawks said. The bed is a ****ing evil temptress who always manages to get what she wants from you.</p>
<p>
I’ve been told not to work out when tired.</p>
<p>^</p>
<p>I think he means to exercise during the day when you’re awake. Of course exercise helps the oxygen flow to your brain and such.</p>
<p>Personally, daily exercising does give me more energy and it makes me less hungry. =)</p>
<p>^
Yea, exercising gives me a pretty nice burst of energy. And it helps when you’re feeling down. :)</p>
<p>Cocaine?</p>
<p>Also good for dieting. </p>
<p>More seriously, caffeine or ephedrine (if you live in a state where it’s legal)?</p>
<p>Adderall/Ritalin/Concerta/Provigil/Nuvigil/Dexedrine/Vyvanse/Desoxyn</p>
<p>Provigil/Nuvigil work best (no sleep debt), but others are fine for one night</p>
<p>Starcraft 2/Team Fortress 2/GTA IV also work.</p>
<p>Listen to the Hawaii Five-0 theme song. My dad keeps blasting it and its really helping my resolve to stay up and finish my homework. But it does get annoying after a while… :/</p>
