All - Nighters
So as I sit at my desk searching for great ideas to write about . . . I can’t think of anything! Nothing what so ever will come to me. After fifteen minutes of drawing blanks I realize I also have an exam tomorrow morning and a quiz tomorrow evening. I think to myself, “Man, I’m going to have to make tonight an all nighter” Ding ding ding! A little light came on in my brain. I will write a blog about doing all nighters!!! Should be easy right? Well come to find out it is not the easiest thing ever. It is actually kind of hard. I mean what all is there to talk about the dreaded all nighter ? Yes, its possibly the worst college experience ever just on the fact that there is lack of sleep and rather than sleeping, you get the privilege of staying up and either doing homework or studying. What a night huh?
What are the essentials for a perfect all nighter? First and foremost is a case of your favorite energy drinks whether its monster, red bull, or no fear. Second is a very comfortable seat , but make sure its not too comfortable, you can’t fall asleep. The last and I guess most important item is of course the assignment that is to be worked on.
You finally sit down to fully start on your task ahead and you get a good hour or two in until the already long day starts to take its toll on your body. Your motions start to become an even greater task that is rewarded with less coordination, speed and accuracy. Your eyes become fifty pound sand bags slowly falling toward the ground. Staying awake become almost impossible until the inevitable happens… Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z Z z . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Oh shit! ! As you look the alarm clock reads 9:47. You realize that not only did you miss the deadline for the assignment and you didn’t even finish the assignment, but you have also missed your 8 a.m. and the first half of your 9 a.m. The only thing to do next is go back to bed.
