Well let me start off by saying I am a full-time college student and a part-time worker, working 20 hours a week. I defiantly do not get the right amount of sleep that i really should be getting. Since i am stuck closing just about every other night i don't usually go to bed till around 12 am or 1 am on those days. The other days if i usually attempt to go to bed around 11 pm or 12 am. And i wake up at around 7 am everyday during the week.
The problem is i wake up fine and am usually ok during my first lecture, then a few hours later during me second and third lecture i just really start crashing and start to really fall asleep (closing eyes, bobbing head up and down every few minutes). It is pretty bad, one of them is in a small lecture room where i can tell the professors have noticed. I don't really drink coffee, and kind of don't want to start. But when i do drink something it is either an iced coffee or an energy drink. ( these do work but are expensive, and I have never had a problem like this, this bad.)
Normally a professor puts me to sleep when i just don't care about the subject and don't care. I really do not one to sleep in class but i am so tired and it just starts to happen. i end up stabbing myself with my pencil just to keep me awake which doesn't work to well.
