2 hours' sleep y/n - impt qn

are you tired?

what do you freaking think

if anything the caffeine has strained me - if I can hold out another 8 and a half hours it is OVER.

It depends on how you normally operate. I usually get to a stage where I can't do any more, so two hours of sleep will be just enough to get me back into working. But I know people who have to work through the night to get it done, as they just won't be able to get up/that little sleep will actually make them MORE sleepy.

if you aren't working productively, then take a nap. if you can still focus, keep going until you can't work productively.

if I throw in 2 hrs sleep I cut down on my revision time and possibly forget some facts fresh in my mind - I have written down all the essential details though

exam begins at 10am which is in 5 1/2 hours

am still able to operate - I think I might sleep from 5-7

if I stay up all night, any tips for keeping focused in exam?

Wait, it's an EXAM? God, I thought you were burning up doing an essay or something. I can't do exams on no sleep.

Have heard that a small amount of sugar helps the memory, though. No idea if it's an old wives tale, but seeing as I usually need a can of pop before I do exams it can't hurt.

good luck usa

dude - if you're taking an exam, get as much sleep as possible - i almost had to take an english comp/writing class when i started grad school, because i'd had only 4 hours of sleep when i sat for the placement exam.

2.5hrs sleep

o_________________________O

u sleep?

gl dude.

Absolute best of luck. Kill those questions.

yeah get in there with a 'ws this paper' mentality.

I HOPE YOU DID YOUR EXAM IN ALL CAPS

Wait, it's an EXAM? God, I thought you were burning up doing an essay or something. I can't do exams on no sleep.

srsly! hope lj does well but it all sounds a bit hectic (i did some of my gcses on 3/4 hrs sleep, never again)

struggle to think of an exam from age of 15 where i slept normally the night before.

struggle to think of a day in general from the age of 15 where i slept normally the night before tbf

you just gotta crush like three red bulls and you're through imo

lol yeah I always go to bed at like 8 PM the night before and always end up sleeping only 3-4 hours cause of the anxiety. sucks xp

stayed up all night before leaving cert english to learn austin clarke's ouevre on a hot tip. SMASHED IT OUTTA THA PARK. it was about a cow iirc.

90 mins' sleep, have consumed 1 large mochaccino and now wish 4 the sweet release of death

but it is over

please friendly marker heed the fact I mentioned loads of apposite cases and give me 50 out of 100

you don't want your students to fail your prestigious course

oh no you don't, no siree

Congratulations--can't wait to know how well you did.

btw if I fail I am suggest-banning 'markers' as representative of his hideous kind

and because he's the new one it's fun to bully

how'd you feel you did?

marginally enough iirc - but although i was better prepared the exam was way tougher this time around

glad to hear it. best of luck.

when d'you hear?

GET IN GET IN GET IN

van der vaart is a qualified MA

GET IN

end of month btw

cool

For darraghmac:

When the black herds of the rain were grazing,
In the gap of the pure cold wind
And the watery hazes of the hazel
Brought her into my mind,
I thought of the last honey by the water
That no hive can find.

Brightness was drenching through the branches
When she wandered again,
Turning sliver out of dark grasses
Where the skylark had lain,
And her voice coming softly over the meadow
Was the mist becoming rain.

I remember this being "definitely on the Leaving Cert" EVERY SINGLE YEAR. Eventually it did come up, I don't think I answered on it.

yeah it's about a cow. i didn't fancy the others that year so a kid from up the road that went to another school reckoned we should pool the different poets we'd covered and insisted i go over that one in partic. worked out well, i didn't drop a mark on paper 1.

tryint to recall now if poetry was paper 1 or not but anyways, ladies and gentlemen, that was austin clarke, with a poem about a cow.
