i think it should be okay as long as you do well an handle yourself well in those classes. are your professors aware of the fact that you're asleep? or are they the enormous classes where you really just take lecture notes. if your professor/s are the type that lecture based on their own notes and not just the textbooks, then you can bring a recorder and tape his lecture while you sleep, and then listen to it afterwards! anyway, i guess the last thing i can say is really just that although you really can get serious after college, your performance during those college years can be/are important to your employment and career success later on. i know it's easy to say that you'll just get serious after you graduate, but a lot of the time it's a lot easier said than done, so maintaining balance is something you should start doing and practicing now.

Life is not all about studying. If you are doing good then you should not change what you are doing. But if you wish to be and better then you'll have to increase your sleep and party less... until you graduate. LOL

College IS later in life. You are not a child now. You are getting the education you need to be able to be "serious" later in life. If you are partying the night before classes, you are being a child and not being responsible. If you must party, wait until the weekend. Party Friday and Saturday nights, but Sunday through Thursday should be off limits. College is expensive. College is serious. You will regret it later in life when life is serious. You will wish you had been more serious in college. Seriously.

Well, if you're doing well in the class, then it's alright. But I do agree with your friends that you might start noticing some after-effects of sleeping in class soon. Might want to cut down on the partying and get back to work. Or perhaps you should balancing your party life with your school life. How about partying on the weekends instead of on nights before your classes?
