I can't seem to stay awake in the majority of my classes. It's not like my grades are bad-I have a 4.0 and am probably going to keep it, but i just can't seem to stay awake. For microbio he lectures so fast and I even sit in the front row and man that guy has put me to sleep every lecture this semester except 3-one was a video lol. I get enough sleep for the most part (5-7 hours plus naps) and i have classes before the ones i fall asleep in (which i stay awake in). I just can't figure it out, can you? Oh, my classes aren't that early either, the ones i fall asleep in anyways

Actually I fall asleep more often in the midday classes because they're during my naptime... >__< Like my bio class at 2-3... SNORE. I pinch myself to try to stay awake but it doesn't really help... Sometimes it's good to take a drink with you (and no it doesn't have to be caffeinated -- even cold water will do) and drink it when you get sleepy... It helps me a little ._.

[aznjeff07]

yea, I do the water thing sometimes but it only works for a very short amount of time. I don't drink soda or coffee either so that is out of the equation

[thatonegirl]

i close my eyes at times, but only when i'm really tired. i can still hear what's going on though.

[itrayya]

all the time.
but i stay awake now...
because im constantly thinking of ways to meet stars.
and ways to improve my singing....
so... i daydream beside sleeping.

i use to be the sleeping queen back in high school. in math. i dont like math.
my friend and i would take turns sleeping.
i'll watch out for him while he slept, and he would watch out for me when i slept....
it was fun.

i try hard not to sleep, because i have high respect for my elders, which are the teachers so...
i try....

[xxlilshortyxx]

last quarter ialways fall asleep in math and chem. its so terrible.

[xtrammieex]

i dont really fall asleep but i doze off ALL the time

[aznjeff07]

yea, i was constantly asleep in high school; i think freshman year there was only like 2-3 days i didn't....i guess it's dozing off now liek ^ said

[graceva]

sometimes I get really tired during classes, but I never fall asleep because I'm too scared I'll be made a fool of myself ><
Maybe you could try gum-chewing? or basically anything that keeps you distracted.

[sulfuric_ACID]

yeah i used to fall asleep in all my physics lectures..dunno why, maths was ok but physics was just o_O i don't really fall asleep now but i kinda just space out into my own little world

[HunnySempai]

i used to sleep a lot in class during HS no one bother waking me wen the bell rang lol
then wen i open my eyes i saw people from next period and was like omfg then i packed up n ran to my next class ^^

[dulcedeleche]

...eh, i just end up not going to my classes lol. i'm doing so badly this semester ahhhh! but yeah, when (and if) i do go, i do fall asleep much of the time lol. good thing they're mostly large lectures (100~200)

[awdark]

Only at night... I used to have a 7:30-10pm class that one was fun to sleep in.
The professor spoke like the visene commercials

What's the point of going to class if you're not going to pay attention to the lecture?

[Tranberry]

It's a battle to stay awake in most classes.

I think if you try to actively listen and really try to follow along with the prof and understand what he/she is doing...it makes it easier. But that only works if the material is at least semi-interesting haha. Sometimes I snack in class and that seems to keep me from dozing off, although it's not the best suggestion.

[chaegyeong]

it never happened to me when i was in high school. started only when i was in college. a sign of old age? i dunno what to do about it either. it's still a mystery

[dolcedor.]

I always had trouble staying awake in computer science. After a while, I'd get up, leave, walk around the building for a couple of minutes, splash my face with water. Sure, I miss a few minutes of lectures, but it refreshes me every time and it's not like sleeping is a better alternative.

[evoJDM pauL]

dude man just buy an energy drink, that will keep you awake
it works every time for me

[DKYang]

I didn't fall asleep at all when I had 8 AM classes this semester, which is weird because I don't get much of sleep because of that class.

When I take calculus, the guy just puts me the sleep. I'm in the 3rd-5th row and everyday I feel like going to sleep. I don't though because I don't want to be rude. It's always because he tries to prove theories rather than telling us how to solve the problem. Then the class right after it doesn't put me to sleep at all.

To me it's like this:

Early class = mostly stay awake
Class after noon = mostly falling asleep
