It's 2:30am and I'm up. No clue. I just am and ya know what? It sucks because I have to be up at 6am.

Neeeeed sleeeeep. But I'm wide awake. I laid down. Still awake. :Oo:

don't worry, doot - i can keep you company!

last semester i never had class before 1 pm, and no fridays...so i became extremely nocturnal. but it was probably a mistake to pamper myself like that. this semester i actually have to be in class before noon, so i'm going through an adjustment period while my circadian rhythm resets itself.

luckily i'm pampering myself in other ways by having no tuesday or thursday classes. makes mondays and wednesdays pretty tough, but i can still sleep in every other morning. which means i'll never get into any rhythm whatsoever.

oh well. the point is, insomnia isn't so bad when you have company. during high school, my friend Jeff slept an average of 3 hrs each night, if that. he was crazy anyway though, stayed up all alone writing stories and thinking whack-ass pseudo-philosophical thoughts.

anyway, i'm going to pretend that i have a "schedule" on tuesdays and thursdays for the first week at least, in case i manage to convince my body to stick to a more appropriate sleep cycle this time around. off to bed, now!

ps - i just hope you haven't jinxed me with my own insomnia for the rest of the night. not that i'd really blame you anyway ;D

Doot, I definantly know how you feel...you can even ask saleb...i talked to her about it and i stay up everynight staring at my ceiling listenin to disturbed wonderin why i cant sleep....and then when i do fall asleep its the same nightmare every time for the last 2 years...i get about (no lie) 12 hours of sleep a week and i know its not good but i wake up sweating,my veins all bulging and me clenching my fists leaving scars on muh palms from where i just cant take the dream....but i guess this should be in the dear doot forum but i know exactly how you feel...i sleep about 2 hours a night if im lucky but the weird thing is my dad has the same problem as me but he doesnt have dreams its cause his back hurts and all,but i have seen doc's about it and they dont know whats causing the dream...so i just deal with it falling asleep in class getting woken up by the teacher and coming home trying to fall asleep peacefully...yet it just wont happen.so i deal with it.i hope ya get to sleepin soon.

Yeah maybe we should start a club. But maybe not the "7" I'm sleepy but can't sleep, and throwing singing and dancing into the mix would be quite unpretty. Big Grin

WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Can I join the club??? Im an Insomniac myself. Its not very pretty, when you sleep from 10am to mostly 8 or 9pm... you spend most of the night bored out of your mind thinking what would be cool to do. Not even watching Comedy Central all night works. But sometimes watching 2 episodes of South Park and 2 episodes of Insomniac the show its pretty neat... hehe which actually has a very cool theme song we can use for the club song LOL Razz

U could kind of call me an insomniac, in the case where i cant really sleep after an event that happened that i would rather not tell about because it would probably embarras me.

I'll be part of this club, if u guys let me.

Also, in case u guys wanna stay up all night and never sleep, ive got the best ideas for that

1.) take Code Red, freeze it, and then suck the syrup out. Then proceed to do approx. 10 pushups. That should get u going for a good couple of hours.

2.) In any freak chance that ur in scotland, or if u could bum some off of Ain, get some Irn-Bru, which is so full of sugar, that it actually gets u hyper literally 5-10 seconds after u drink it (Mainly because its ingredients go Carbonated water, the SUGAR, then something else, followed by Caffine, which means that somewheres around 30-40% of it is sugar)

3.) DONT DRINK. Watching people drink late night is never a great thing to see, because they always fall asleep, and wehre is the fun in that?
