I can never sleep at night, and to be honest its really very boring, yeah there is the option of doing endless quizzes and online tests but i feel this is not really the most productive way of spending time. So ideas on what you do to keep yourselves entertained

if you're bored, that means that you need someone to talk to. so you can give any of your friend a call or hang out with, you might not know that they can't sleep or doesn't want to go to sleep yet. or you can chat with anyone from the yahoo or msn messenger or skype or whatever chat things you have there just to have someone you can talk to and spend the whole night with that.

Generally when I can't sleep I read a book, sometimes watch tv. If you put a news programme on they are generally on a cycle so after a while you will already have seen everything. Put the volume on down low and it's amazing how you begin to drift off to sleep! Done that many a time.

For me, I usually surf the internet to look though some interested website or to talk something with my friends who may be online as well. Listening to music or seeing a movie is also a good choice.

When I can't sleep, I'll just turn to my cellphone for refuge. I'll text anyone who interests me and then interact with them or exchange SMS. I also read novels so that I would get sleepy. At night, words do make me dizzy and I easily doze off.

I'll pop in a movie I have seen many times before, so I'm not trying to stay awake watching it. But if I am wide awake and I know I won't be able to fall asleep, I take advantage of everyone else in the house being asleep and clean or organize areas that are hard to do when the kids are awake.

When I can't sleep at night I usually watch anything random on TV, or I read a book, or watch videos on youtube, or type my thoughts on my journal.

It does not have to be boring. I always have a book by my bedside, and my radio, so I can pass the hours when I'm not asleep. If I felt I had to get up and do something, I would write or go online and take part in discussions. The internet is available 24/7 and it is always daytime for half the world, so coming to MyLot is a good idea, you won't be bored anytime you come here.

When I can't sleep at night, I will take a warm bath, then watch some tv or read books.

I write poetry or post to my paid sites. I also check and reply to emails. I watch my digital cable or learn at a program I recorded on my DVR.

When I cannot sllep at night, before I discovered Mylot, I usually read up my favourite till I dozes off. If my eyes were blurry, then I just switch on the television and watch anything that is on. If everything else fail, I will get the mop and mop the floor.
