My friend B. told me that he accidentally pulled an all nighter just two days ago. I shook my head and reminded myself to post about it. He told me that he was studying for Inorganic Chemistry until 4 AM and after 2 more hours of playing video games (boys will be boys), he looked at the clock and finally went to bed and woke up at 11 AM. Nice work, but you're not getting enough sleep (naughty!).
All nighters usually mean that you're typing up a paper due the next day (or a few hours later...at 8:30 AM) or studying like crazy. Try to manage your time a TINY bit better to avoid be cranky and running on Red Bull/Coffee/Ritalin/Chocolate(??? j/k)/etc. By the way, illegal means of staying up is never a good idea. And do I even need to repeat that you should avoid anything illegal? I'll say it again: AVOID ILLEGAL THINGS.
OK anyways, your body will be quite upset with you, and lack of sleep leads to a weakened immune system, crankiness, and bags under your eyes. No one wants to be near you (let alone smell you).
Just use your time wisely, and if you have a big 30 page paper to write, try to space it over a few days or at least dedicate an entire day (that is not RIGHT before the due date) to hammering it out. Most of my Saturdays while everyone is recovering from hang overs (or other things, I suppose) was spent being a good girl and earning my A's. Booyeah! Ok fine, A's and B's. I hate you.
By the way, pulling an all nighter usually means academically-related stress due to procrastination. If you spend the entire night playing DOTA or Halo 3 and are grumpy the next day, no one is going to feel sorry for you. One of my ex-boyfriends plays video games enough that it affects his school work. Use your common sense!! If you don't have any, get someone to smack you and then ask for advice.
