well, looks like I am not the only one who is not getting enough sleep.

forgot to say in my post, but I usually get around 6 - 8. depends on if this is a busy week or an easy one.

but man! before yr 11 I used to get >12 hours a day. and now this really is killing me.

but like it is really unfair for people who live far from the school. I go to a selective high school and some of my friends have to catch the train for more than a hour to get to school. doesnt that suck?

hmm I try to go to bed 10, 10:30. But I get up at 6 each morning, to do an hour of study or homework before school. Thats about 8 hours, which is around the "optimum" time for sleep. I used to stay up far too late, doing work. But I find that if I did, I felt really tired during school. Though, if you can function with only a few hours, all the power to you.
