Dammit! I have to write a goddamn paper on nanotechnology for my science class in one and a half hours because I've been procrastinating for the past 12+ hours.

This sucks...

I know the feeling, I had 2 days to study for my last final, and I started 5 hours ago, and have covered maybe a third of the material, and quickly too, don't know how to do some of it, and my test is in three hours. I am an idiot. :stupid:

If you skip enough sleeep you can start getting euphoric and hallucinating, but also your emotions are on edge, though you may feel slightly euphoric you also are easitly irritated and angered. Well it differes from person to person, but that is how it works for me. Normally after about the 36 hour mark I stop feeling tired and actually do not want to go to sleep, I start wanting to try and stay awake as long as I can. Its bad though, especially if you start to hallucinate, then you know you need to get some sleep. The hallucinations and such normally don't kick in til like day 3 or 4, but it differs from person to person. Though it can be fun I would not recommend it to anyone, you start to get easily confused and such.

I sleep about 2-4 hours per day. And I never get really tired. Often I don't sleep at all. My record record from summer holidays 1998 or 1999 is 7 days without sleep.

My record is 5 days without sleep, but I find just naps make a difference. I have gone weeks on end with only 2-4 hours of sleep, and find I don't have any bad side effects, its just completely skipping sleep that fucks with me. In fact if I get in the habit of sleeping less I am tired if I sleep more than that. Currently though I am sleeping all the time. I love sleep. Though last month of school I was grabbing 4 hours maybe every other day and stuff.

The hell? How do you people live. I can only properly operate on like 10 hours of sleep. When i wake up for school i usually only have 7 or 8 hours. It takes me another 2 hours to be fully operational.

I am similar, it takes me about 2 hours to wake up, thats why I skip the sleeping part. But I can go extended periods on little sleep, its just a matter of training your body. Earlier in the semester I was sleeping like 10-12 hours a day. I just go through phases. Now I am sleeping around 5-6.

No its the Mozgus prayer group. In it you pray to cleanse stupidity, and lust for attractive animated women, among many other uses.

So join in and pray. :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

I don't like sleeping at all it's just a waste of time. But the most nights are too lonely.
