keys to staying up

March10

Staying up and just hanging out w/ friends etc. is easy. Staying up to get work done is exhausting. These are things that I’ve done in the past that have helped

1.hide the clock:
time doesnt really matter, you need to get sth done, watching the clock and playing the “ok, i can get x hours of sleep” just stresses me out personally.

2. short bursts of exercise:
just to keep the blood pumping and me from nodding off

3. log off msn / chat / avoid distractions:
the sooner you’re done the sooner you will be in cool sheets, fluffy pillows and loving blankie

4. cool refreshing water
coffee makes my stomach bite, coke/pepsi makes my teeth furry, i prefer cold crisp water

    I forgot to mention… you will feel like crap the next morning. Just like there is the Law of Conservation of Energy, I believe there is a Law in Conservation of Mood. As you overextend yourself something’s gotta give. It’s often sanity. I missed my bus this morning :(

    Sadiya… (k)

    This is so cute. Staying awake tips for when work must be done. First, let us invest in something called impossible. Then, let us stroll through a little town called reality check. Next we shall visit the continent of When Work Must Be Done. Altogether, we have, When Work Must Be Done, Reality Check –> Impossible. I realize how nerdy this note is. But I feel to express my true keen nerd self, this must be posted. Because truly, I think…thus then therefore I am.
