With all the hype about how brutal this first semester is going to be, I am just curious as to how many of us can consistently perform on minimum levels of sleep. Personally, I can hack 4 hrs a night for about three weeks before the canker sores break out. Another couple weeks and the bags start to darken. Add another week and then the irritability threshold breaks. Ten straight weeks and I start to hallucenate. Idealistically, an adult body (and mind) needs about seven hours a night, give or take an hour depending on how hard you work during the day. Frankly, I perform best after eight hours, but after speaking with multiple students, a full night's rest clearly seems like a pipe dream.

Same size as the can pictured, however I did see 16oz bigboys for sale in Colorado during last month's visit. Even brougt a few back with me.

Damned 16 oz. of pure energy, can't say I would be too productive after a can that size. I can promise though that I would not fall asleep!

I need lots of sleep... unless the night is spent with a hot girl!

Actually wouldn't you need more sleep just at a different time, you know instead of 10-5 you need 4am-12pm, time for your body to recuperate. :lol:
