Drunken for Sleep

So the AVID Wake-A-Thon was a no sleep, all nighter event. The night was fun and no trouble was involved. Two times I've been to it and two times I stayed up all throughout the event. There's always a person or group of people who sleep or try to sleep. You maybe still thinking, "How does this title relate to the essay?" Well I'll tell you.

This recent Wake-A-Thon was a special one because most people started to doze off at 4-5 A.M. in the morning. I was one of those people. I started to be one of those one drunks. (Disclaimer: No alcohol involved in this event at all, no intoxication whatsoever!) There's something I call "drunken for sleep" because you really really want to get that 5 minutes of sleep, but you can't. So what you do, you have to say words outrageous to your normal self to keep yourself awake. You can always listen to music and mimic the words (or try to). My friend Jennifer tried this because she was so deprived of sleep, she needed an alternative for consciousness. It's a weird concept to assume by, but if compare the two situations personally, you can see the similarities. Heck, it can apply to a cranky, angry drunk to a cranky, angry all nighter. I don't know any easy other way to explain a person who needs sleep without being a regular, functional character.

Overall, if you've had a previous nap and energetic enthusiasm for Wake-A-Thon, this high school ran event can be a memorable one. And this is why students need to get their sleep now or they'll be acting like someone else.
