After school -- to sleep or not to sleep?

[Rip the Jacker]

Well, usually after a day of school I'm tired and by the time I get home I'm sleepy. I was wondering if it was worth sleeping and then waking up at 7-8 PM and staying up all damn night long, or trying to go to sleep at 3-4 AM and wake up at 6:40 AM.

Or, be sleepy and try to start my homework (which I dont get around to til around 8 PM anyway), and basically browse around for a couple hours.

Haha. I do the same thing. I ended up sleeping from 5Pm to 10PM. I ended up working till 4AM

I think getting work done and sleeping early is the better choice

If you haven't tried this, you should ...
Sleep 6 to 8 hours at night .... Some people need 10 hours, the point is, you shouldn't be tired at school, and you shouldn't be tired right after school. If you are, you probably aren't getting enough sleep at night.

I strongly suggest take a quick nap , 1hr at most. It really refreshes you mentally and phisically. I always have energy for homework after a power nap.
