I'm Staying Up All Night Tonight.
2004-11-04, 11:59 PM #1
Why, you might ask, would I choose to not sleep on this lovely Thursday night? Well, the answer is simple. Apparently this project (which is due tomorrow) is worth about 20% of my final mark in this class...

So I'm not planning on sleeping.

Anyways, to make this thread legit, post your all-nighter experiences!

I'm doing the same thing tonight, English assignment. Not worth 20% of my grade, but its worth enough to raise my grade from a 77 to an 85.

Last fall, I pulled a couple of all nighters in the same week. I had a research paper and a couple of lab reports due on a Thrusday. From Sunday to Thursday morning, I probably slept 4 hours, not sleeping Sunday, Tuesday of Thursday.

I pulled an all-nighter two weeks ago taking notes on Hamlet, and it looks like I'm doing the same tonight, taking notes on Death of a Salesman. I'm not sure how large a portion of my grade the assignments are... probably not enough to justify me losing so much sleep. But I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Usually, after staying up all night, I can keep running until 2:00 in the afternoon, but after that I tend to pass out wherever I might be.

Not that way. The sun is a huge fusion reaction.

I barely sleep anyway, why use 12 hours if you have 24?

When I have an all-nighter I usually tend to be in danger of passing out from 5AM to about 8AM, after that I start going back to quite a normal state, don't feel sleepy until about 10 to 12PM
Yeah, you stay here and take life seriously. I'll go and have some fun.

Last saturday night I stayed up all night to play Final Fantasy IX. I haven't spent a really long chunk of time gaming for a while, so I played from noon saturday till 8 sunday morning. Then I slept. I haven't pulled an all-nighter for schoolwork yet, though I have stayed up untill threeish several times.

All nighter experiences? Is such a common thing for me I don't even consider thinking twice about what I do when I stay up all night.

I coul be doing anything... watching movies with freinds... playing video games... studying... talking... anything...

Luckily the lastest I've had to stay up this semester is 4 AM with an 8 AM class.
