<p>Has anyone mentioned it yet? It’s a way to trick your brain into sleeping more when you only get like 2 and half hours of sleep a day.</p>
<p>Read the first half of this article [5</a> Ways To Hack Your Brain Into Awesomeness | Cracked.com](<a href=“http://www.cracked.com/article/127_5-ways-to-hack-your-brain-into-awesomeness/]5”>http://www.cracked.com/article/127_5-ways-to-hack-your-brain-into-awesomeness/)</p>
<p>Here is another one [Uberman’s</a> sleep schedule || kuro5hin.org](<a href=“kuro5hin.org”>kuro5hin.org)</p>
<p>That’s a very not smart idea. I don’t want to say dumb…or stupid…but…relying on 20-30 minutes naps every four hours when your schedule runs from 5 AM to 5 PM…not wise.</p>
<p>Works pretty well in the short term. /attest</p>
<p>Short term as what? One or two days? Yes, but the article said after ten days you’re miserable.</p>
<p>I usually sleep between 12-1:30 am and I get up at 6:30 am. I feel pretty crappy right when I get up, but it gets better. When I get home, if I am utterly exhausted I just crash for an hour!</p>
<p>I usually sleep 6-7 hours. Honestly, less than 7 makes me kind of crabby (or maybe I’m just naturally a crab…)
Back in 8th grade (Oh, to be an 8th grader!), I would literally go to sleep every night at 2 or 3 and feel fine in the morning. That’s 3-4 hours for me. Now, if I sleep on that much (happened a few times) I sleep through all my classes and fail whatever quizzes/tests are that day.</p>
<p>god, u rock bro. Mind if I ask what’s ur major?</p>
<p>looks like it simply differs from a person to person. i usually sleep about 5hrs max/day, and i can still function normally at school and elsewhere.</p>
<p>I hate sleeping. It affects me at times, but only in drastic situations. I try to recharge a bit over the weekends and breaks.</p>
<p>I usually sleep around two-three hours a night on regular schooldays, and six on Friday nights. Not because I’m studying though. Heck, I wish I would study. I’ll probably start doing that more, though.</p>
<p>Copious amounts of rockstar or monster. I probably have 2 a day.</p>
<p>My son worked really hard in high school that some nights he only got 7 hours of sleep. I’m not sure how he pulled that, but I am always proud of my hard working son!</p>
<p>I would chop off a limb for 7 hours of sleep every night. But I feel like my biggest problem is my poor time management (especially procrastination), not loads of homework necessarily. I feel like it should be plausible for a high school student, even one loaded down with APs and honors courses as well as sports/extracurriculars, to get a minimum of 6 hours of sleep a night if they manage their time well enough.</p>
<p>Protip: Never go to bed later than 1. Chances are you won’t accomplish anything that late and you’ll feel awful in the morning.</p>
<p>Coffee does wonders.</p>
<p>I have friends who wake up at 5 AM, do homework, go to school, nap at lunch, go home and sleep until dinner, work until 9 PM, sleep until 5 AM etc…</p>
<p>I cannot function without 8 hours of sleep, so that’s what I get. Although as a HS junior, it’s been cut down to like 7.5…</p>
<p>you get used to it… takes practice lol</p>

<p>Enough Sleep is critically plays an important role for a healthy life. At least 6 hours of sleep is madatory for one day.</p>
<p>There are two possibilities for getting 4-5 hours of sleep a day. </p>
<p>1)You naturally only need that much sleep a day. Consider yourself blessed, as science has shown that a certain number of people function perfectly fine without sleeping much.</p>
<p>2)Power naps. Set them to 15 minutes at times of the day when you dont need to work. Keep your bags tucked away, sit in a sofa and sleep. I find that every 15 min power nap is roughly equal to an hour of sleep, up to a certain extent.</p>
<p>Meh, naps don’t work for me. It’s like crack; I try to ration it out and end up craving more.
Sleep is my narcotic of choice, I suppose.</p>
