Is an 8:30 AM class doable?

[nootje]

this is what coffee was meant for.. I used to have these all the time, just grab the biggest container of coffee and work your way through it.

those classes became a real problem when my nights out started to end only an hour or so before class. From experience, law becomes hilarious when drunk (drunken creativity), but economics will become a real test of willpower to stay awake

and when a classmate holds a lighter in front of you to see if your breath can ignite, youve reached the point of cutting back on drinking

I'm sure he meant 1Pm..

On that note, I had a special Saturday class, 9AM-5PM. Good thing it was a fun exciting class, otherwise it would have sucked. I mean as fun as it was, it ended up being a bit tiring and long.

When do you do homework? Weekends?

I find sleep deprivation works well when i have a nasty schedule. Pick a show, work through an entire season in a few days to keep yourself awake whilst doing homework at ungodly hours then wake up 2 hours later when the sun comes up and do some kind of crazy sleep-starved-caffeine-fueled-savant thing in lecture.

Sundays you fill in your sleep debt so you don't die.

biggest mistake of my life was taking 9am classes, and i only live like 20 min from school... well, more or less depending on the malevolent whims of the 405 south

When I was in high school, they renovated the dining hall one year.

That meant squishing the schedule around so my 8:00 Latin class became 7:50 Latin. During a cold winter term, in a Bulfinch building with huge windows and no storms.
After a bike ride in 8 degree weather that had to be fast because I'd got up at 7:35.

I go to sleep at about 2 and wake up at 6. I sleep in on weekends to make up for it (sleeping in means waking up at 9). I usually read about 2-3 books over the weekend. Luckily, there's no homework aside from reading in philosophy (oh, and papers, but I love those). I also have a 3 hour break in the middle of my day on MW.

I do--I am currently looking at expensive coffee grinders, very labor-intensive.

sorry jetblast, you are almost as bad as conne, whining about inconsequential things and ignoring reasonable advice
