Answer 1

The cheapest, easiest way to stay awake during class is to take notes as the teacher is speaking. Either write what the teacher says word for word, or a summary of it. You will be moving, and it will prevent your brain from sleeping. Remember to make sure you keep writing.

Answer 2

take  those five hour energy drinks befor u go to school

Answer 3

Well, you can start by liking history. At first I am like you, then I came across some story books that changed my history lessons. Those books are: Agent angel,angels unlimited by Annie Dalton. Go try them out it might work

Answer 4

I'm in the same situation for my classes too, only I seem to fall asleep in all of them. Maybe try doodling and if they ask say it's notes. Try to concentrate on something, could be anything, when your concentrating it's harder to fall asleep.....also, have you started school again? I don't go back for two weeks.

Answer 5

Drink Coffee! I know it's bad for your teeth, but it really does help. Also, you can try doodling on your notebook. It sounds lame, but it works.

Answer 6

One way that I stay awake is to keep a rubber band around my wrist. Whenever I start to doze off, I snap myself. Another way is instead of keeping your feet on the ground, keep them just a few inches off the ground. If you are allowed to have bottled water in class, keep a bottle of cold water by your desk and take a sip every once in a while. Another way is to just have good posture, it makes it much harder to fall asleep.

Answer 7

i hate history! its soo boring! i usually draw.... or do something to entertain myself!

Answer 8

ahahahha the same thing happens to me

i usually wake up if i talk to someone, but if a lecture is going on i just pinch my arm really hard, but it kinda hurts. so drink an energy drink or soda/caffeine or protein bar before class/school

or slap yourself before you go into class

or take a jolly rancher and put it in ur mouth but dont move it around to much so u wont get caught

but if all else fails...keep sleeping

[make you hair cover your eyes and look liek your writing notes so no one knows

and on the plus side, probably everyone else is sleeping too!

haha
