We Can't Keep Awake In Lectures!

Image via Wikipedia

Its true. No matter how many time you denied it, some of us cant keep awake when listening to lectures, especially those tediously boring lectures.
You dont believe me?
Then here's the proof ....
(the 3 guys in this pic are actually my friends!) Sorry guys..

At the start of the lecture (first 10 minutes), everyone's smiling (well, almost everyone!)

You don't have to wait long..This photo is taken 30 minutes after the start of lecture

After 1 hour...and they're still asleep!

There you go, solid evidence and can be use in court,lol. Most of us can keep our eyes open in the lecture hall, and most of us cant.I highly respect those who can survive the agony of keeping awake,even when most of the people in the lecture hall are asleep!

There are some ways of keeping awake in lectures:

1. Go to the toilet and wash your face
2. Take 2min and have a little walk outside the lecture hall to stimulate blood flow
3. Eat something - sweets, chewing gum etc
4. Use eye drops! 
5. Have a chat with the guy next to you
