    From what I've heard, a human can only stay up for 4 days before he/she dies. Um, no clue how they figured that out.

    and my personal quote "sleep is over-rated"


    i got a nightshift job, so im getting pretty used to sleepless nights
    ive gone over 2 days without sleep (before my nightshift job) and it was pretty horrid
    you start getting all giddyish (odd kinda laughing if you will), start thinking wierd things, keep thinking your seeing something out of the corner of your eyes.
    FYI: dont be drinking caffien if your trying stay up long periods of time, since your going on without sleep, your body cannot rest, and caffien is a diaretic, meaning you lose fluids (water duh) in your body, and if your dyhdrated and tired, thats spells disaster


    still, i rather be under-slept than over-slept.... ever over slept before? for some reason you just feel awful
