    I don't remember how long my record is, but it's well over 48 hours. I remember once making it to 56 but I know it's beyond that now. I sort of enjoy the feeling of sleep deprivation, provided I don't need to do anything requiring TOO much thought. There's your second wind which is nice but I prefer the third and the fourth. That's when you start saying and doing strange things without any recollection. Your body temperature goes up and you start feeling feverish. You start seeing things out of the corners of your eyes. You begin to wonder why you've come to this strange place. "Who am I? What is happening?" And the next thing you know all the milk is gone and you're lying in the middle of the hallway doing yoga poses and singing Italian pop songs.

    Personally, I hate sleep deprivation. I can barely make it 14 hours without sleep and not feel like I'm suffering from withdrawal. Ive been that way since I was a baby and my body is used to 8 hours of deep sleep every night. It used to be a great thing as a kid, but not so much as an adult since I don't always have the time to sleep and if I don't have time to sleep I can't function properly so everything takes longer and sleep time gets shorter again and you get the point :lol:

    The most I can go is like 36 hours without sleep, but I have the weirdest sleeping schedule anyway. I sleep from 4-7am, then go back to sleep at 8:30 and sleep til noon most days unless I have class.
