Tech Haven Network

Or how thats spelled.. but i can use loads now.. worked untill late yesterday 11 hours.. and today i gotta work 14 hours.. still 12 to go.. and tomorrow lucky only to 15.00 then holiday finaly starts.. i think with a good sleep ( din't sleep for more then 5 hours any day now ) and then a night playing NC..

anyway.. bring meh some coffee gotta stay awake..

I don't like coffee

I need to stay awake, not sure if they sell it in Holland but have a look for some pills called "Pro Plus"
I use them, they are great as they are just caffine Tablets and they work a treat for keeping me awake. And perfectly legal

Heheh my special recipie for all-nigters

Take a 2 litre bottle and fill with:

3 parts coke
0.25 parts lemon juice
2.75 parts tea (hot)

= ALL NIGHT UBERNESS!!!

Java Lava coffee. That keeps me going for ages!

Used to drink loads of coffee but I dont so much these days...Hmm must drink more coffee.

I've had my share of occasional 14- to 16-hour workshifts, most of them not scheduled but done out of necessity since things at my previous company were not kept in order (by management). But hey, I enjoyed being able to eat out and hop onto IRC through the DSL connection there during my late-night break. Currently my work schedule isn't too beastly, thank god.

Pah! That's nothing.

I use pure willpower to keep me awake (not the droner kind)

My record is now 40 hours!

And yes.. my eyes are so black and saggy I look like I've been on crack for 6 years.

you guys havent been awake for a week ... lamos

jees after that i slept for 36hours but still it was fun tho....

that sorta shit can fuck you up.. hence I hit the sack after 40 without sleep

just 40 hours? I'm at 48 in record...don't think I'll ever wanna go beyond that tho...makes you feel rather sick, strangest feeling I had at those times.... as if I was looking over my shoulder seeing me do things while I struggled not to fall asleep... brrr not a nice feeling tbh.

It's called Astral Projection. Well, if you follow New age theories and other such occult studies. Or if you're a paranormal kinda person, it's called an OOBE. (Out Of Body Experience). However, psychiatry cannot explain it. The closest it gets is lucid dreaming.

Heh.. can anyone guess I've studied this stuff?

Heh, a mere 40 hours? I've gone 3 days awake on nothing but willpower on multiple occasions. Once were were gaming with friends (D&D), we ALL stayed up for 3 days (some feel asleep faster than others).

Last anime convention I went to I also stayed up the entire weekend.

(Never measured the exact number of hours, but the record probably stands at around 60 hours)

3 hours to go.. then.. SLEEP good thing is dad started his holiday monday.. so i could drive to work with the car today.. no biking for meh just 3 more hours.. i... need... a.... vacantion

Try 12 days courtesy of illicit chemicals. In that time I wrote about 10k lines of code (C at the time, none of that pansy ass OOP crap), and spent more time gaming than I ever care to repeat. At the end of it all I was hallucinating, and slept for 2 days straight. As a bonus, I lost 6 pounds as well!

... thank god I only care to do 24 hour stretches now...
