Are you always the first on out at sleepovers? Tired of all those pranks? That will all change now. For some reason, I find it much easier to stay awake during the night hours than the bright sunny hours of the day. Here are the some quick easy steps to maximize your nighttime activity.
1. Sleep in past noon, or take a long midday nap the day of the sleepover. If you already slept to our heart's content, there will be an internal resistance to additional unnecessary sleep.
2. Avoid any rigorous or fatiguing activity during the day, such as exercise or working on homework. Staying awake works best when you have extra unused energy.
3. Caffeine and sugar really do work. These will often keep you up for an extra hour or so, depending on how you react to them. Stock up on the sodas and candy!
4. Use a computer. The light from the screen keeps your eyes wide open. Television is not suggested because a computer requires human interaction every few moments (unless it is for video games).
5. Do not make a lot of noise. This may cause the parental units to awaken and cut your all-nighter short.
