Not that it was a conscious decision. I got home from work at 11:30, sat down in my room, talked to my roommate, surfed the internet, listened to music, and the next thing I knew it was six o'clock in the morning, and I only had three hours to go before the start of church*. Being one of those unusual people who has a hard time waking themselves up to get ready for church after only two-and-a-half hours of sleep, I decided that it would be best to wait until after church to go to bed. Which was a stupid idea.
To make a long story short, I made it through Priesthood (that's the first class of the day, since it's one of those crazy psycho wards that reverses the Proper Order of Things) and then I went home and slept for six hours. It was exciting. And sad.
I'm sure you can all guess the moral of this story, so I won't bother to say it.
What I'm pretty sure I looked like to everyone that saw me at church.*Does anyone know why of the four student wards I've had, all four of them have started at nine o'clock in the morning? Because I sure can't figure it out.

Now that you have accomplished it, you know it's not very fun. I would probably be sick as a dog if I tried to do it. Love the picture. Was that taken after a long bus ride?
Staying up all night is not something I recommend on a regular basis. In fact I'm not a fan of going under 7 hours of sleep. I hope you get to sleep long and hard tonight to get your rhythm back!
that picture was taken at 2 AM after about only two hours of sleep because sacrament meeting had gotten over about 11:30 PM or so and we had to start our hike to the top of Mt. Sinai nice and early!
staying up all night is not fun. i did that a couple times this past year and i had an extremely hard time staying awake in class the whole day.
Staying up all night used to be so easy, but now that I am so old-it is hard even to stay up all day without a good nap.
And I always thought that the older you got-the less sleep you needed. Apparently not. Now I find it hard to stay awake during any church meeting-even if I got 8 hours sleep the night before.
Oh the joys of being young!
Love, Dad
Staying up all night is so not something I can do anymore. It is good to be able to say that you have done it though. I'm glad you survived your experience and that you actually have a roommate you will stay up late to chat with! (o:
I am very surprised to hear that ALL your singles wards have started that early because that is very odd. Most of my singles wards started around 1 PM which is exactly when they should start.
