    You know those times when you’re reading a sentence over and over again and you say, “huh?”

    Or how about when you’re reading and you noticed your eyes are closing and you’re almost falling asleep.

    Do you have any good tips for fighting through this?

    It’s tough for me since I don’t drink caffeine and I’m fighting through one of those moments right now as I try and study BEC.

    NIU CPA Review Correspondence is awesome!

    I passed all four sections on the first attempt

    Ah yes! A Napuela is the solution to most problems in life. I haven't been Napuelaing lately, still at Pasadena, went to bed at 4am finishing up my audit… I actually finished and even wrote the report (got lots of brownie points with me boss)…which means, Closing meeting today…relax, study in the hotel and leave back to Nebraska tomorrow. This is also the end of busy season for me! Now I can go HAM on REG and be a CPA by the end of the month!

    P.S. research suggests that Power-Napuelas work best. Don't go hardcore on them, I'd say maybe 15 to 30 mins max.

    May be play some Slipknot music on your breaks…I like Psychosocial and complemented with 25 push ups per break to let the blood flow to the brain you know..

    I would suggest a walk, as others have said.

    Try almonds, they are good for your brain (that’s what people say). I kept my self awake eating them, but be conscious of the noise that you can cause while chewing…….specially if you are at the library 😉

    Done 😉

    Sliced almonds aren't noisy. And they are better to me sliced than whole for some reason 🙂
