Anecdotal evidence: I can't ever remember being as exhausted as I was having to get up every day for high school. I think my body has adjusted better to less sleep now, but I just remember it being awful.
I felt even worse for the kids who came on the bus. No wonder many of them couldn't stay awake! They probably had to get up at 5:30 every morning just to go to school!
- warfangle 17y agoAnecdotally, I had an hour and a half bus ride to school back in the day. We were picked up at 5:45 (school started at 7:30). For much of the school year, it was pitch dark out waiting for the bus. If I wanted to be presentable and eat breakfast, I had to wake up at 4:45.
- decadentcactus 17y agoI was similar. Towards the end of high school I moved far away. School started at 8:30, my alarm was set to 6. Bus left just before 7 down the road a little. It was interesting taking a bus + train + bus to school, but I wasn't really a fan of waking up that early.
- robryan 17y agoSame, I've never been more consistently tired as I was in high school, even though at times since then I have ran similar hours.
