Slept for 12.5 hours.

Post by Falco Girgis »

...and ohhh my goood, I feel great.

I had slowly been getting less and less sleep every day for two weeks. I was feeling like shit every day. Now it's like a complete reset. I don't even need this coffee that I'm sipping on.

A huuge hibernation after a period of sleep deprivation is one of the most gratifying experiences ever.

I have finals from 9:30am to 10:00pm on Thursday, then work and attending a graduation on Friday, but Saturday I will most definitely get lots of sleeps. <3

Get good rest so you don't have to hibernate too often. o_o

I slept about that long last night, but that's cuz I'm sick. :( I work up at 7, called into work, chugged some NyQuil, and went back to bed.

So now I'm kinda in that fog. I had to force myself to get up so I can sleep tonight.

I hate being sick.

For some reason I have been sleeping for like 15-17 hours. Been missing school cause of it.

I could go to bed at 10pm wouldn't wake up till around 5:30pm the next day WTF!?

If you have fever, I can teach you a method of getting it stable in less than 12 hours guaranteed no matter how bad it is..

It's basically something I figured myself, and it works for me always, but no one listens to me. I proved a few times now that it's efficient and everyone in my family now uses this.

Interested?

It's going to be something like "masturbate to gay porn."

...I know it.

Dude, what sucks is that my wife took her last final of the semester today, so tonight we planned to drink like no other. But, I'll probably be taking shots of NyQuil instead.

Damn dude, that's messed up. One ambien puts me on my ass in like 15 minutes, and I'm in a complete haze the next day.

:lol: It's actually not a trap.

The whole trick is to -> Keep your body really warm, to the point that you can feel the heat, while keeping your head at normal temperature by cooling it down.

- Your pose in the bed should be head higher.. almost like you're sitting. Get a few extra pillows.
- You should have some backup stuff from the fridge. It's important that you don't let your head temperature rise while keeping it moderate by not freezing your face.
- Don't put the cooling thing behind your head, keep it on forehead and occasionally cheeks.
- Masturbate to something that has nothing to do with porn

I hope you figured the last one was a joke. :)

I'm not sure about headcold..
I tested it only on fever..
