Does anyone know any tips for staying awake after no sleep?

exersize as offten as possible. It gets your blood moving quickly and you are more likely to be able to stay awake. I remember I always had a problem with falling asleep in school, but if i went to class after gym class I was much more likely to stay awake.

Keep yourself as busy as you can, both physically and mentally. If you have to do a lot of sitting quietly, it's a lot harder to stay awake. Also, even though these aren't good for you, if you're not a coffee drinker, caffeine pills can work. Like No-Doze, or Vivarin. You can get them at any drugstore. Again, I wouldn't use them often, but one day won't hurt you.

Yes, coffee seems to work well enough, and I agree with the workout suggestion.
