I have to write this paper for uni. I have to hand it in tomorrow at 7 pm, so I need to stay up all night (or until I finish it, whatever comes first hehe).

I've got music, I've got chocolate... what else do I need?

I don't really know if there's anyone here anyway...

Hey! I'm doing some homework for uni too and i'm about to fall sleep but I need to stay awake!!

When I'm about to fall asleep I start to do some workout, some stretching or a small walk, that makes me wake up a little bit. Hope this works for you.

oh man, I used to pull all nighters all the time when I was in college. It was usually for art projects. A can of cola would work for me usually. Good luck. I hated writing papers. :P

Thanks guys!
I've looked for a Coca Cola all over the place but couldn't find any, so I got myself a cup of coffee. Now I'm awake thanks to the coffee and the searching :o).

All I need is inspiration now :oP

Same situation here :/ My final paper on Government and Civil Society is for tomorrow at 7 pm :S

My tactic has been coffee coffee and more coffee.. but at the moment I'm stuck.. words just don't come out so I come to the board to see what's going on hehe looking for some inspiration...

So what's your paper on?

Ohh! I've been in your situation until like 5 am!

My paper's for a Social Psychology class.
It's about identity, genre and domination applied to a movie called XXY, about a person who is a man and a woman at the same time.
Very interesting, but very hard to put it in words!
The sun's come out... My guess: I'm not going to sleep today :oP.

Good luck with your paper!!!

Coffeee, Lucozade, Sugary everything. Some people say pro-plus. Speed. Ermmm. Red Bull? Yeuch. I tried that once, had 3 cans of red bull, but I ended up falling asleep.

IRN-BRU!!! That's amazing for staying up, but can also make you very hyper...

Well, I must say right now I've been awake for so long that I've just crossed the line lol. Now I'm very awake and don't need stimulation haha.
Here it's 12.38 pm... lunch time. And I haven't finished the damn thing... I guess I'll be able to sleep when I get back from uni this afternoon...
