i'll be up all night tonight. I was up for 36 hours between Friday and saturday. I've slept a good amount the last day and a half.

I am trying to stick to energy drinks because i don't want to take adderall. It can't be good for your heart and last year i felt like i was going to hagve a heart attack when i took too much of it and some ridallin and some energy drinks. I hear of some people taking coke to study for tests. I think that is a little overboard. Adderral is considered "baby coke".

BUt yeah, 36 is about as long as i've ever stayed up straight> I have done that many many times though. I remember being up 42 hours straight once and really i wasn't too tired. A lot of times I'll sleep 1 hour ever 6 hours or so for a couple days if i am studying really hard for a test. That works.

As for cramming for tests... works for me. People say you can't retain info unless you sleep. I sleep right after i take the test so i retain it then. I cam easily able to recall information if i study it a few hourse before taking a test. I've been pulling all nightsers since 7th grade so i'm not all that worried about tonight.

If i need to a boost i'll probably take a few energy drinks but i'll try to stay away from the adderall. I actually have a good amount on me so i guess i could get rid of it. I could sell it. That stuff is expensive during finals week.
