Staying awake!


Question Posted Thursday November 16 2006, 1:56 am

I underestimated the amount of time it would take for me to cover ten chapters so my only option right now, aside from failing the midterm, is to pull an all-nigher! However, I can't seem to stop falling asleep at periods of time...

I need something that will keep me awake!

Energy drinks won't work. Caffeine has the opposite effect on me.

Any suggestions?

If you really can't finish the book, you need sparknotes. Try looking for the title on sparknotes.com. I know everybody says that they don't help you at all, but the one time I didn't read the book, I skimmed sparknotes and got a C.

Okay, don't take pep pills. They're terrible for you. So is overdosing on caffeine.

What I suggest (and what got me through tons of all-nighters) is a 20 minute nap. No longer, no shorter. It refreshes you pretty much instantly, and it doesn't take too much time out of studying.

1.Well first of all i think you should really make up your mind like "i will stay up nothing is gonna stop me".
2.Get angry keep yourself furiosly determined on what you have to do.
3. Put on some loud rock music that really turns you on gets the adrenaline pumping."Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin, work real good for me" (bands).
4. Dont sit on or even near your bed sit upright
on a chair or something.

You could try energy pills, like stacker 2's. I've been taking them for the past 2 weeks and they keep me wired for at least 6 hours. If all else fails, you could try to find the footnotes for the book, or get the book on CD or tape, haha.

Although that would be cheating, but depserate times call for desperate measures ! =]

Try the Stacker 2's though
They work really well for mee.
