I went to the match, how the Mabil shot was saved, I will never know.

Great game despite the lack of goals.

Thanks guys,
I no longer have an office in the Mawson, and won't need to go back there anytime soon.

Perhaps we should convince Forza to spend more time there? hmm

I've been sleeping at 4am+ lately, have an 8am exam on the 19th, how to fix sleep cycle?

by dostoevsky Sun Nov 16, 2014 2:38 am

Stay up all night studying then all day. hmm

by Forza Sun Nov 16, 2014 7:02 am

A normal person probably can't do valuable work (or play) for more than 16 hours a day. This isn't a rigid rule, its just an approximation. But assuming this is correct, it allows for 8 hours of sleep each day.

If you are waking up at 11am consistently, your longest possible "day" of work probably ends at about 3am. Another example is a 9-5 full time worker, they might have a 6am - 10pm "day".

I think the solution is to shift the window of time when you can work (the "day") by changing the time at which you wake up and making that a routine. But I don't think it's possible to go from waking up at 11am to waking up at 6am consistently. I would suggest moving from 11am down to 10am or 9:30am for a whole week and then moving earlier again. This should also force you to go to sleep earlier.

Unfortunately I don't have a more short-term solution. However, I always advise going to bed early before an exam. Don't drink any coffee or Red Bull that day either.

by fatman123 Sun Nov 16, 2014 10:40 am

Either what dos said or tire yourself out so your body needs to go to sleep early

by beatrixasdfghjk. Mon Nov 17, 2014 2:40 am

Yeah, my friend's technique is to just skip a night's sleep to 'reset'.
Don't have enough time to do that with exams and stuff, if I stay up all night I'll be too tired for the exam.
Slept two hours earlier than normal yesterday though cheers

Then I woke up for two hours at 4:30am for no reason Sad

by CBarca Mon Nov 17, 2014 5:29 am

I stay up real late and get up early and don't take a nap throughout the day, and then I get to sleep at an earlier time that day.

For example, I was up until about 4 last night. I got up at 9, and I haven't taken a nap. I'm gonna go to bed before 1 or around 1 instead of the usual 2 or 3 last week (which was awful).
