<p>Oh I envy you whose only reason is only procrastination for not getting a normal amount of sleep! Anyone else here keep these insane and trying schedules because of piles of homework, rather than silly slacking?</p>
<p>Voberaptor: I think that’s a good amount of sleep. As long as you get around 6-7 hours of sleep, you’ll function pretty well even if you might feel sleepy. Your brain’ll be more awake, at least!</p>
<p>hobbithill: Hahahaha, add sports to the mix as well. I think I have more studying than homework at times. It depends. But sometimes I have to read for AP Bio, for example, and AP Lit. So sighhhh. Reading can take up a lot of your time.</p>
<p>By the way, for those with similar or the same sleeping schedule as mine, how have you guys been faring? I find it so hard to wake up sometimes that I end up waking up just in time for school or I get to first period late because of stupid traffic. Guys, I feel dead every day 
Weekends are like paradise to the sleep-deprived.</p>
<p>Wow I thought I was the only one that naps but au contraire haha
Well when I use to do sports I’d get home after 5-6 and start my hw around 7 till 9-11 depending on amount. Now I replace sports with napping(sigh). Junior year is way tougher and I just don’t have the energy after school I feel dead. Anyone else completely exhausted after 7:30-2:00 school?</p>
<p>I do school from 6:30 to 5:30 (homeschooled) every day. I get very tired. 
Then I eat, and after dinner, I always have speech and debate work or other stuff to do, so I go to bed around 12:30 most nights. Annd teens are supposed to get around ten hours of sleep per night, so…yeah, I’m routinely exhausted.</p>
<p>Nothing really that crazy…usually asleep by about midnight…wake up little after 6</p>
<p>I wish someone from the department of education looked at this thread, the majority of us are getting under 7 hours of sleep each night, if not much less. I wish school started later…</p>
<p>Well, depends on how much homework I get.
Small amount of homework- falls asleep at around 10 and wakes up at 5:30
Large amount of homework (such as test, or project)- falls asleep around 10 and wakes around 3 or 4 am</p>
<p>I wish I could nap…but unless I’m falling asleep anyway, I can’t nap. </p>
<p>I usually procrastinate for about an hour after I get home, which isn’t good. I get distracted so easily, so usually I finish homework at around 11-12 (and I’m not doing homework the entire 5 or 6 hours either…dinner, club meetings, TV, etc.). If I’m up at 1 and there’s still stuff to be done, I just leave it til the morning before school. I can’t study late at night so that gets pushed back to the morning as well.</p>
<p>So my sleeping schedule is usually 12-7, though it feels much shorter and I’m always still tired.</p>
<p>I sleep from 11-5 most days. The only time my schedule is off is when I have to stay up late or wake up early to do homework.</p>
<p>I usually go to bed between 10:30 and 11 and wake up at 5:30. I’ll sometimes take a one or two hour nap around 3 or 4 after school, but that’s it.</p>
<p>
This thread is not representative of the average high school population. The average high schooler has way less homework than most people here and doesn’t do much of it/does a poor job on it anyway. But yes, I do wish high school would start later.</p>
<p>I too wish high school would start later. </p>
<p>I don’t know how you guys can do this while being healthy (although, I’m pretty sure some of you guys’ health suffers). I wake up at six, stay in bed until six ten, get ready, and then I come home and goof off until like eight or nine, then I start my homework, finish it at ten, watch tv for an hour then go to bed at eleven.</p>
<p>On Monday nights I push back my bed time to midnight because we start school an hour later every Tuesday for late start.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s definitely true, but I wonder if the government sector that regulates the school system understands truly how difficult and tiring it is to be the best student possible.</p>
<p>Depends on when I finish my homework</p>
<p>For me, it’s school from 7:00 AM to 2:30 PM, then lab work till 5. Next comes classwork (at university) till 7:30. Go home, and practice for ECs/do homework/eat dinner till around 3AM. Fall asleep, and wake up again at 6:30AM.</p>
<p>I don’t sleep much.</p>
<p>I sleep from around 5-7 or 8 then wake up and start my homework, which lasts until 10 or 11 on good days, other days around 12. Then I “go to bed” (I lay in bed for like two hours because I have trouble sleeping) and then wake up at 6. Surprisingly I’m not too tired throughout the day, but I do have those moments where I’m struggling to keep my eyes open! I have my techniques though :P</p>
<p>I don’t understand how some you guys fit in your ECs o.O</p>
<p>I usually get home from school around 3:30/4ish and procrastinate until 5ish and nap until 8 or 9. Then I procrastinate for another couple hours and do my homework from 11 to 2 or 3 and sleep until 6:30 or 7 for school. I should probably stop procrastinating and get a normal sleeping schedule…</p>
<p>School from 7:50 to 3:00, clubs after school until 5:00, and on Thursdays, I have piano lessons from 7:30 to 8:15. I always eat dinner with my family and we typically talk… a lot. So, even though I get home at five, I typically don’t have time for homework until 6:30. Homework lasts me until maybe 11:30-ish and practicing the piano takes me to 12:30-ish. On a really bad day (projects, essays, whatever) I’m usually up until 2. </p>
<p>I wake up at 6.</p>
<p>Well my mom forces me to be in bed by 10. I watch TV till 10:30 and go to sleep. That’s reasonable enough now as a freshman, but I don’t think she understands that I might have homework to do next year that surpasses the 10 mark.</p>
