It’s 2 a.m. and I’m Still Awake

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wisconsin chapter.

I know I will regret it tomorrow. But honestly, this sleep deprivation cycle I’m caught in is not on me.

  1. It’s my neighbors.

It’s literally a Monday night/ Tuesday morning. No offense, but Chance the Rapper really isn’t the best person to be singing me lullabies.

 

  1. I’m on that study grind.

Finals are just around the corner. Let’s be honest to ourselves, we’ve all got some catching up to do.

 

  1. I need to pee, but I refuse to get up.

Y’all know that I’ll be falling into a slumber the second I get back. I am not about to take that ten-step trek to the bathroom.

 

  1. It’s party time.

I mean, we didn’t get the title of #1 party school in the nation for nothing.

 

  1. That 6 p.m. coffee got me good.

I mean, the caffeine burst was necessary in order to finish my math homework. But like, I’m good now sooo…

 

  1. Netflix needed me.

I was only three episodes away from finishing the season… quitters never win.

 

  1. I’m about to be murdered.

I heard the creak in the floor; this is no time to be vulnerable. Sleeping is completely out of the question.

 

  1. I was writing this article.

 

No matter what it is keeping you up at night, I can assure you that you are not alone. So, let’s give a huge shout-out to our fellow insomniacs of UW-Madison: Thank you for keeping the night life alive.
