Step #1: Find yourself a comfortable chair. (My favorite ones are the one-piece plastic ones. They are much easier to sleep on.)
Step #2: Next you need a spot on a table. If you can’t find one you’re screwed, as sleeping on a chair sucks, you almost fall off all the time.
Step #3: Now, there are many different things you can do for a pillow. You can roll your jacket up in a ball and use that, you can use your arms, a book, or you can just put your head on the desk.
Step #4: Where you position yourself is the most important part of the art of sleeping. Most of the time I put somebody between the teacher and me, so I’m hidden. But I always sit away from people, in a corner, or by people I’m sure I can tolerate or are quiet. So I know I’ll catch as many z’s as possible.
Step #5: Now all there is left to do is sleep, sleep, sleep and sleep. Of course, you should plan on waking up every once in a while. Sleeping in a chair with a jacket for a pillow isn’t quite as comfortable as a bed with a real pillow.
