12 Hours Later...the crash

Ok you know its coming that impending doom your body puts on you when you decide your not going to give it the sleep it needs and desperately desires. Its one thing if you just stay up, however if all you did was just stay awake you wouldn't be alert enough to study right? Of course that's why the gods of Vitiman B-12 and Caffinee bestowed their gifts upon me this past night/morning. But as the saying goes what goes up...must come down and woo boy I'm coming down.

Now my test is at 6:30 PM and I'm going to a study group at 4:30PM so if I'm crashing now at 3:00 PM how do i make it?

No its not a math word problem folks its just a simple dilemma. Here's where tactics come into play. I havn't taken any caffinee since around 7AM so I've been letting my body crash and keeping myself awake by running in place, or going out on the deck as the cold air wakes you up pretty quick. In really bad cases I've had to use cold water on my face in the past and if all else fails turn that water to freezing and hop right into that shower...that'll wake you up trust me. Anyways since I haven't been taking anything and I'm crashing I've also been drinking a ton of water as well as a couple glasses of milk. The milk helps your body absorb the rest of the caffinee in your system and the water finishes the cleaning job by diluting any remaining alert aid substance in your body. So besides the fact I'm overly tired I'm basically right where I started. At 4:30 I'll take my last energy shot and follow it up right before the exam by chugging down a Red Bull. MAKE SURE YOU USE THE BATHROOM! Chances are your exam proctor won't let you leave the room before you turn in your test....damn SOB. And there's nothing worse than doing all that studying for nothing because you rush through it to get to the bathroom.

I won't promise because I'm pretty sure once I get back from this test I'm going to be ready to crash big time and will just make it to my bed before my body gives me a big FU and just passes out. So the final results of the study a thon will most likely be posted some time tomorrow.

Wish me luck!
