that will always haunt you. All-nighters are pretty much synonymous with student lifestyles. Making sleep deprivation as a routine, forcing their body to study and finish the task given by lecturers

III.

all night. Did you know that most of university students are sleep deprived? A survey was made and result show that 70% of students obtaining less than 6 hours of sleep. 50% says that they are facing daytime sleepiness due to insufficient sleep. (Lund HG. (n.d.) Sleep

patterns and predictors of disturbed sleep in a large population of college students.)

results that will protect your health. This is because; all of us have rights to get a proper and enough sleeps by good time management and life planning.

(Let’s move to my first point) Body I.

Sleep deprivation negatively impact learning, memory, and performance of students. A. Sleepiness and irregular sleep schedules have many unintended consequences which are negatively impact learning, memory, and performance of student. i. There are interaction between sleep stages, pattern of sleep stages, and memory. ii. The dual process theory maintains that certain types of memory are dependent on specific sleep states, such that procedural memory (knowing how) may be dependent on REM (rapid eye movement) sleep and declarative memory (knowing what) on NREM (non-REM) sleep. a. For an example, REM sleep normally occurs every 90–120 minutes, with each REM sleep period growing progressively longer, with the last episode near rise time. Therefore, university students with early morning classes may not be attain the last 1–2 REM sleep periods, thus adversely affecting procedural memory. (Amlander CJ, Fuller PM, editors. Basics of Sleep Guide.) b. Thus, do not lets sleep deprivation giving you a bad impact that can cause your learning, memory and performance reduced.

(My second point) B. Insufficient sleep can increase depressive symptoms among students especially girl. i. Are you really get what I’m talking about? a. Let me give you an imagination. Are you ever thinking, sometimes you go stay up for whole night to finish your jobs or tasks, and then suddenly people around calling you to ask something.

b. Do you ever think what will happen? You might end up to scolding them for no reasons and later you will regret for what you have done. All of that just because the pressure and depression that you face. c. In a study of female college students, sleep debt of 2 hours per night and/or a bedtime after 2 am was associated with greater depressive symptoms. Irregular sleep schedules have been associated with greater depressive symptoms. Prolonged sleep latency was associated with loss of pleasure, punishment feelings, and self-dislike. (Regestein Q. Sleep debt and depression in female college students. (n.d.)) a. As a simple example, Increased total sleep in teenagers has also been shown to improve mood. (Transition: So what’s the solution?) II.

Solving these problems required customer action and yourself where you need to be professional in managing your life schedule. A. Plan your life as it can improve your sleep properly. i. Instead of making task or jobs in last minutes, try not to burden it. Do all of you task slowly and periodically. Get enough rest if you really need for it. a. As a students, don't even think of pulling an all-nighter before an exam, because researchers say that does more harm than good. Last-minute cramming refuses to sink in, because the consolidation of memories occurs during deep sleep. b. For example, you may face fainting or loss of memories because your brains did not have an enough sleeps.

Conclusion I.

Last but not least, I want to remind you again, you need to plan your lifestyle, so that you

II.

will get proper sleeps and avoid sleep deprivations. Give time to your body to get rewarded for what you have done. I mean, when you have push your body to works, you need to give some rest to recover the inner and outer energy.

III.

Do not try to force yourself until your sleep time is affected.
