Why so sleepy?????

You guys know what is the most sleep inducing - soporific thing in this world ???

No, it is not sleeping pills, nor it is some slow art film. No even a lullaby cant match up to it.

Well, it is the moment - one week before the exam, when u take a book in your hands and start studying...  Believe me it is true. 

I being a regular student during the school days was not afflicted with this problem. 
It was only when college life began n I realised the advantages of not studying regularly, that this really started troubling me..

Here is the case..

U only have a week or so n u have to complete 7 or more subjects.. U start with the determination that whatever happens I am not going to be distracted, I will study with all my heart.. For the first 15-20 minutes it is ok.. 
Then the dark clouds of sleep start enveloping you.. Words began to appear blurred to you.. You try to resist it.. You wash you face with water.. 

But it doesnt seem to help.. The clouds are too dense.. But ur resolve is strong.. 

You start walking and studying.. Initially it helps but then the strongest of beings fall to this obstacle.. The feeling of a short nap and the nice things associated with it begin to cloud everything else.. You begin to think, what the hell, I have studied for more than an hour, I deserve a short nap... I will not sleep for more than an hour.

You set the alarm for an hour thinking you will study after that.. But no - "Aadmi jo sochta hai woh hamesha nahi hota". One hour after, the alarm is switched off, n u again fall of into that peaceful existence.. When u get up afterwards, u realise that the exams are more close n u have not completed even that single page u had started..

U say "Jo ho gaya, woh ho gaya, abhi to mai choduga nahi, padhna hi hai kuch bhi karke".  

U start with a fresh mind, but again the cycle continues.. U remember Joker from Batman n begin to feel  "WHY SO SLEEPY?"

This author tried indulging in other activities like watching movies - his favourite pastime. The soporific effects of these activities were almost nill. He could go on hours without falling asleep..

So my friends. For those people suffering from insomnia, here is a perfect antidote for it.. Effective all the time.

Till Next Time

Yea I have absolutely zero will power, so studyin along a strict regime has never been my thing.. But its surprising how little u can sleep when u have ur entire portion left a night before a paper.. the books lose their sleep inducing power very quickly :P
