Did you know that the average college student spends 5 hours a day thinking about sleeping, but only 2 hours actually asleep? That’s sounds like it’s not true, but you’re probably too tired to actually look it up.
Sleeping is the great joy and the great pain of all college kids. We love it, but boy, will we do anything to avoid it.
When your body finally shuts down and you’re about to collapse out on some freshman in market, here’s a list of places you can (hopefully) get to before your legs refuse to work any more.
10. In line at Chipotle. Bonus: you have a snack when you wake up!
9. Your best friend’s couch. Mmm, comfy. Besides, I’m sure they owe you for something.
8. Towers lobby. There’s always so many other weird things going on there, no one will ever notice.
7. 9th floor of the Union. It might be called a “study room”, but you know what else has 5 letters and starts with s? That’s right.
6. The basement of Benedum. The engineering students there don’t even need sleep, so you can just hop in one of their beds. Bonus: you can shower there!
5. Halfway up Cardiac Hill. Those Panther and PA kids are used to it by now.
4. Hillman. If you go in the winter, the 150 degree heat will lull you right to sleep. Bonus: people are generally too wrapped up writing the paper that was due last week to bother with moving you!
3. A trashcan in South O. Because let’s be honest here—after a 2 am pizza at Sorrentos, we’ve all been there.
2. Anywhere in Cathy. Seriously, it’s all free game. If you can lay there, it is illegal for anyone to stop you from sleeping there.
1. Your bed. It might seem unconventional, and you might be a little weirded out at first, but trust me on this one. There’s no better place to catch some z’s than your own mattress (or futon, I don’t judge).
