edited March 2007 in General
I haven't slept in 33 hrs now since yesterday.

What is the longest period of time you managed to stay awake for?

    79 hours. Personal record.

    Labs and projects. Rockstar was my best friend.

    EDIT: And midterms. Can't forget about those bloody things.

    My record is probably in the 40's somewhere, I wouldn't last any more than that, I'd probably die.

    My record for amount of sleep is 24 hours straight, though. Quite an achievement.

    Mine is pretty long. I got up for work early in the morning, worked all day, caught a midnight plane to Chicago, then walked around the city all that day, went to a concert and went to sleep at about 3am. So that would make about 45 hours or so and I was doing a lot of walking and not just slouching around! Plus I wrote an essay for school while I was on the plane.

    Those were good times. :teeth:

    I went out with my friends on a friday night once, and didn't end up sleeping all weekend lol... We hit up a club then hung out at UBC for the night with some girls from res, got home at 10 that morning and realized i had relatives over from the states so spent the rest of the weekend partying with them KRAYZ times... and still passed my midterm that tuesday somehow

    It was fun but I never put myself through that again ;)

    two and a half days. your contacts get all nasty so you have to take em out and rinse them a few times.

    I went on a coke binge once and stayed up for 3 days. But that probably don't count. Since I was high on that stuff.
