Anyone Feeling Tired Yet?

    Leaving Cert Fatigue Syndrome usually doesn't set in until after English II, but I'm already feeling the effects! I, unfortunately, couldn't get to sleep until around 4:30 this morning (I'll put it down to nervousness- the fact that it was pretty warm didn't help, either), and I'm already yawning all over my notes.

    Who else is feeling the need to catch a few zzz's?

    Well English II is at 2:00 tomorrow, so we can sleep in in the morning. :D

    I did about 3 hours study today, and have been watching tv since then. I'm taking it easy. ;)
    Will do another couple hours in the morning, and should be set to go.

    I'd take being tired right now over the constant urge to take a massive s**t!

    Hahahahaha I think it's very appropriate and funny(but that's just my humour, the word 'poo' sets me off in fits of giggles, oh the shame)

    I am so tired, I did no study today or this week, I will look over the quotes before I go in. I just want this to be all over, I seriously find it tempting to just give up right now and not do it, it would be so nice to just stay in my bed for the next week and wake up to this whole nightmare being over.

    I'll probably get up around 10/11.
    I'll study for an hour or two, should be okay.

    Do you really need the extra hours?
    Don't do too much...you'll be wrecked for the actual exam.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,744 ✭✭✭theowen


    I got four hours sleep last night and did 6 hours study when I got home. Bed time soonish methinks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,472 ✭✭✭highlydebased


    I was knackered before the exam this morning :P

    Whatever about being tired by the weekend, next monday + tuesday will be cruel, 2 full days :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    Sleep now is a good idea, especially if you didn't get much last night ... ;)

    I'm wrecked! I got four hours sleep last ngiht, then all the hype of today. Did five hours of very unproductive study, im disgusted with myself lol. Going to sleep, have my alarm set for ten, an hour lear, an hour poetry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 189 ✭✭RetroRainbow


    I'm going to make some mushy peas, and watch the movie adaptation of Dancing at Lughnasa. I'll then glance over some notes, maybe do a wee bit of Geo, and then head to bed. Might get up around nine or ten.

    5 hour energy ones are just scary, took one at 11 at night thinking, grand I'll be able to get a couple of hours sleep before the exam, come 5 am, I go to bed, and I was so wired I was basically rotating in my bed......

    Worked like a charm though :D

    I took 2 today - bad idea. I'm now lying in bed still buzzing.
    It's that really annoying feeling when you know your shattered/need to sleep but you can't..

    But yea they worked a charm , just stick to one a day!
    One before English 2 and one before geog I think..

    Yes they may damage your liver, but so does years of underage binge drinking, so, meh..

    Haha, **** me, I'm a lovin this thread! I was the exact same, I couldnt sleep at all last night, too hot and I just kept going over characters in my head, for my short story, I turned into a schizo literally, chanting and chatting to myself!

    No worries though, finished KL now in a minute and then going to bed.
    I think I have a problem though, I have just eaten four packets of REALLY MINTY tic-tacs and I am not stopping, even though my mouth is on fire. What is my problem jeeeez, I am a psycho, I'm crunching away like theres no tomorrow for no apparent reason, for the craic maybe, but now I AM ON MINT FIRE!:L

    Go to bed / sleep.



    In fact, all of you: Go to sleep, now!!



    :D

    Have no idea how I'm gonna survive today and tomorrow with all the cramming I have to do for geography. Once that's over though the rest of the leaving should be grand for me, the subjects and time between exams gets less stressful as time goes on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 829 ✭✭✭zam


    I feel really pathetic about being tired already because I make sure I'm averaging about 9 hours sleep a night... so I really have no excuse! But I'm exhausted! And still have TEN to do :P

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Bob the Builder


    Was exhausted yesterday. Came home and power napped for 4 hours. Which is the reason I was late sleeping last night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 311 ✭✭H2student


    hm... the five hours thing seem nice. (especially for Friday morning) What liver damage it can do, I'm only gonna use it for the next 3 weeks :D.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 307 ✭✭Orlaladuck


    I was up til 12 last upon discovering I've lost my fecking calculator which I've had from TY and learned everything in maths and chemistry on. It's a such a whiny thing but i was so attached to it and I could use it perfectly so I've sent my poor dad into cork to try every second hand shop there is to find it (why the hell do they insist on changing them every year!)
    I've been up since like 8 studying for english as well and have found I've lost my last GV&V essay as well but on the brightside I found my monster boland revision sheet but so far not a good day for me! =(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 331 ✭✭Cook!eMonster


    I went to bed really early last night, then had a nightmare that they changed the format of the english two paper and it was really complicated and they only gave us one poet and it was yeats

    Oh god that's horrible! you poor thing! =(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 331 ✭✭Cook!eMonster


    It was awful :( Im praying for Boland and Cultural Context!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 307 ✭✭Orlaladuck


    I'd reeeally go over Literary Genre or Vision and Viewpoint really quickly because I have sneaky suspicion it won't be up..it didn't come up either papers for the mocks and neither came up last year, while CC did.. be careful with that but then again who knows either! I hope boland comes up as well =(.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 656 ✭✭✭Victoria.


    I'm wrecked :(
    Was home yesterday really early and still got nothing done and went to bed at 10.

    Got up at 7 today with great plans to do about 5 hours study for english II. It's now nearly 12 and have done nothing. The only way I can learn essays off is by writing them out 10 times and I don't have the energy to do that.

    Can't believe I'm so tired after just one of my eleven exams.

    Me too! 10 to go and I'm wrecked, also being very unproductive with my time, watching Glee and SATC... I'm the only one to blame if I don't do as well as I'd hoped :P
