So, the president were talking in Lemhanas when some of the participants fell asleep. He got angry and told the sleepy participants to sleep outside. We might never in the same room with the president but just in case it happens, here are a few tips.

1. Carry a mint/coffee candy in your pocket. When you’re getting sleepy just put some candy on your mouth silently. Do it without anyone see you because you’ll get scorned because you chew something.
2. Move your body a little bit. Stretch your hand and move the toe in your shoes. Hopefully with some movement you won’t get sleepy anymore. Make a small movement and don’t overdo it.
3. Play with your cellphone either playing games, browse sites, or just plain texting. You must do it quietly so the speaker don’t see you as a good listener.
4. Ask some question. This is only worked of course if you know what the speaker are talking about.
5. Take notes or just plain scribble on the notebooks.
6. Lastly, think something that will aroused you, like angelina jolie or maria sharapova.

When you’re sleeping during someone’s presentation, you will be seen by the speaker as someone who are uncaring. Don’t let this happened to you.
