why do we need sleep?

Right now I wish I could run 24 hours straight without sleep or rest. There's so much to do in  little time and I want to get everything done on time. It feels like an impossible task. Currently my brain is overloaded with so many to-do's and decisions I have to make that I end up zoning out. It could be a case of "brain fry". Fighting a heavy case of senioritus is tough to do, especially when there's only a quarter left of our high school career and most of us know where we're going to college.

Third quarter I let my case of senioritus get to me and I definitely don't like the after effects. Suprisingly, the consequences of my senioritus cured my laziness and now i'm trying to make up for cut corners. This is when I wish our brains didn't need to re-fuel on sleep.

So, why did I pay $3.50 for a cup of caffeine?
