I used to rely on Nescafé coffee to stay awake, especially during exam periods, so I could study through the night. One day, I decided to skip studying during the day and instead planned to drink my coffee at night to keep myself awake and burn the midnight candle.

As night fell, I drank my Nescafé, confident it would keep me alert. Despite feeling a bit drowsy, I was determined to study, trusting the coffee to do its job. But as soon as I lay down on my bed, the next thing I knew, someone was waking me up to get ready for my exam. I was so disappointed , it felt like a dream. I ended up going into the exam blank and, unfortunately, resorted to some questionable methods to get through it.

This happened to me as well, I couldn't cope I had to sleep for a while, I slept in class like a newborn baby my friends woke me up when it was time to go to the hostel and prepare for the exam, they said they woke me and I shouted at them and I didn't know when I did that. We can never cheat nature

There is actually nothing better than studying early. It even helps to save stress

ha, ha, ha, ha I recommend pure black coffee without sugar to keep you awake....ha, ha, ha, ha... what a scare! I can't trust studying or working at night, I prefer the early mornings... greetings... at least you have the experience.

So you mean pure black coffee actually works in keeping people awake??

That's how it is. Because of the brain stimulation of caffeine...but for some very regular coffee drinkers, like me, it doesn't work. Coffee no longer keeps me up at night.
I guess it happens to other people too...that depends on how your body processes caffeine, @juwon-btc

Never trust that coffee will make you sleepy all night, it is not always like that and sometimes it relaxes you so much that it sends you to sleep at once. I can imagine your frustrated face when you wake up 🙈.

It wasn't an easy experience but at times somethings just needs to happen for you to learn a lesson. I was part of those that believed that theory before but not anymore.

I imagined how frustrated you are waking up the next day and it's examination day. You don't have the choice but to accept the fact the you slept while the sip of coffee doesn't work well. 😊

oh I will always try to stay up late and study for my exams, but I used to refuse to have caffeine in the evenings, so I will try to sleep by 1 o'clock and get up at five in the morning and make sure I had a good cup of coffee in me so that I would have a minimum of three hours to go through and revise everything. ✨ I hope you answered the exam in a better condition. Being blank for the exam is definitely no fun. Sleep comes through your body and it can just take over.
