It's almost 5am and I have to wake up at 7 for a lab. Should I just say up or try to get some rest?

i would stay awake.

but i'm retarded if i sleep for less than 3 hours or so...my brain won't get out of sleep mode and i'm pretty much worthless for anything that requires more cognitive prowess than microwaving a burrito

Go to bed... or at least lay down and close your eyes for a couple hours.

That happens to me too. I'm wide awake right now but once I fall asleep I'll be tired until I get a whole 8 hours.

I find that if I just stay awake when I will only get a small amount of sleep before having to do something involving much thinking, that I tend to do better. Its like the exhaustion brings me to the edge of the zone, and I cross over, and kick much assticles.

I would have gone for the sleep. One of the best things I learned in college was the value of a quick nap.

Me three. If I have less than 4 hours to sleep before I need to be functioning, I don't bother. I go in search of food, caffeine, and something to occupy me for the time.
