Should i be getting into the habit of staying awake at night, well pretty late, to do work. I mean, i generally don't like doing work in the daytime, but then when i do work at night, it seems SOOO depressing. Like, there's this weird evil/depressing feel towards doing to work at night :L I want to do work at night but yeah... Well, what do you guys think?

Im guessing you find working at night depressing as you're tired. Find when you work best. If it's at night and you want to take advantage of this, make sure to adjust your sleeping pattern accordingly by sleeping in the afternoon/early night. It may take some time to get used to the pattern.

"Suffer now, and live the rest of your life as a champion".
personally, i don't think you should, but if that's how you work best then yes, i agree with what clank said.

Hmm.. i think i may start to develope a sleeping pattern soon. As year 11 is starting very soon and the subjects i pick might overload on me :L Sorry probably best for me to get used to working late at night to get ready for next year.

^Savour doing nothing in Yr 10 for reals.

I'm confused by what you mean by working late at night. Are you talking ungodly hours like early AMs or just late PM?

its always best to go to sleep when youre tired. You work less efficiently when youre tired you might as well sleep and wake up earlier than you would have if you had stayed up really late

Pretty much what people should aim for.

Sleep is very important.

Err...weird evil/depressing feel? I mainly study at night but I never get that feels. Have you tried studying in the morning? Some people work more efficiently at different times of the day so you should try & find what time suits you best.

My favorite time varies.

Usually 4-7pm or 7-10pm

Wow, do you actually feel sleepy in the morning? Or are you just a morning person that sings and enjoy life every morning?
It is effective for me. Quiet and minimal distractions, i.e. no one is on this site at that time. lol

4 AM is an ungodly time for either getting up or staying up really. Sleep time.

I don't like staying up past 3:30 AM haha. Stay up till 4AM or later and you feel weird.

lol I agree about the distraction part, but I just can't get the motivation to get out of bed when I'm sooo sleepy! I'm like "just 5 mins..." Then the 5 turned to an hour and never returned XD

Because 30 mins is such a big difference XD
I can't make myself stay past 2 :/
