What's a good way of keeping yourself up? I don't have a clue of what I'm gonna write about in my 2 essays for EE1 tomorrow yet... I have to stay up until I do

If you're motivated, you'll stay up for as long as you want. Although, the quality of work may deteriorate.

After you've finished one essay, go cook and eat a big meal. Offer to make dinner. Eating wakes you up, and the cooking of the food gets you even more awake. On top of that, drink regular cups of strong coffee.

well i jus finished my prelim and trust me i was addicted on coffee for weeks haha, but wat i realise is that it makes u even more tired afterwards when it wears off, my suggestion? is to drink lots of water and when u feel like u are too tired, jus lay on da bed and close ur eyes for about 30-40 mins, dont think about anything and then u feel a lot refreshed. but dont fall asleep lol

Klaw man, whatever you do, do NOT lie down on your bed.
I remember once, I was like 80% through my essay, just went to lie down on my bed at 3AM.
Woke up at 6:30AM, extremely luckily. No explanation for that (would have usually slept in til at least 9 with that kind of lateness), and finished my essay, went to school and handed it in.

Expect your marks to reflect this.
