Water! Actually I drink water most of the time...but if I'm trying to stay awake, I snack and turn on a light. I hate light, but it screams 'I'm day! You can't sleep!'.

ive actually found that eating keeps me awake more then drinking caffene, granted i drink pleanty of caffene(working at a coffie shop) so i may have developed some resisntance to it. coffie is good to keep you from falling a sleep but if you want to focus eat something.

During my second semester of college I had obstructive sleep apnea and wasn't getting enough oxygen to my brain during the night. So I could sleep for 10 hours and wake up feeling like I hadn't slept at all. Anyway, I took No Doz and drank many bottles of Mountain Dew per day so I could keep up with my engineering work. None of it made a difference and surgery was the only thing that worked.

Black tar heroin.

Oh, drink?

By Calkidd (Calkidd) on Friday, September 24, 2004 - 01:52 am: Edit

Red Bull. Preferably with a side of goldfish crackers.

By Techiedork (Techiedork) on Saturday, September 25, 2004 - 02:23 pm: Edit

my friend came into school one day having had a grande caramel macciato and 2 monster drinks

i think that's more than plenty to keep anyone awake.

Why not just go to sleep?

By Missegg (Missegg) on Monday, September 27, 2004 - 05:31 pm: Edit

Well if you want to come do my homework or clean my room or go to class for me while I sleep, you're welcomed anytime!

COFFEE!

Before I go to work after school, I always go to Circle K and buy a can of Starbucks Doubleshot, since I'm usually really tired.
