Well, here I am sitting in English class after writing an annoying test. I am thinking about tonight. The GSL finals is at 4am my time. There is no way I would be able to stay awake until 4 with my schedual. Usually I can stay awake until 11:30-12ish by watching youtube videos, checking all the forums I visit and playing some minecraft.
What else should I do to be able to stay awake for those extra 4 hours before the GSL?

Note: I am too young to go out to a bar/strip club/anything like that, and I am trying to avoid online pornography.

Any ideas?

Redbull. Coffee. Slapping yourself.
Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!

My alarm clock doesn't have a loudness dial, and its either on 0 or 10 and my parents wouldn't appreciate being woke up at 3:45 in the morning.

I'm sure if you google "Alarm Clock" you will find many different programs that you can use to wake you up. And of course volume won't be a problem because you can adjust the volume on your speakers.

Do you have a cell phone with an alarm? If your computer is near your bed, you might look for an online alarm clock.

Seriously. You're wimping out over nothing, OP.
Your parents MIGHT wake up, and if they do, they'll just go back to bed most likely. If they can't sleep, invite them to watch GSL with you. Problem solved.

Absolutely no one is sincere over the internet, at all, ever. By this logic I'm thinking, that you know that he is thinking, that he doesn't want to get up, but you actually want to support his original claim to having a very loud alarm clock.

Just play a game or watch all of DBZ online lol.

You have 3 options here:
1) Just fucking stay awake
2) Go to sleep, set an alarm, stop complaining
3) Skip it

Obviously if an alarm wont work for you, you need to drink 15 tall glasses of water before you go to sleep. That way you will either wake up on your own or be woken up by some odd(hopefully it is odd) feeling in your bed.

You're young! How can you not stay up!
When I was younger I could pull all nighters easily.
Now I am a wreck the next day if I try. Im going to go to bed and get up to watch it.

They may not appreciate it, but have you never set your alarm clock for the wrong time? I do it all the time, and it makes a great excuse if you ever do need to get up at obscene hours of the morning for private reasons.

tl:dr version: Set your alarm clock.
If it wakes your parents up, say, "I must have set it for the wrong time."
"Go back to sleep" until they go away.
Get up & watch OSL.
Win.

Or: just tell your parents you're baller and watch SC instead of sleeping because you're awesome. Though I realize that may not be an option.

Simple options:
a) Stay up (redbull/energy drink/something)
b) Set alarm and wake up in four hours
c) Go to sleep, then avoid any GSL threads until you watch the VODS
