There isn't really ANYTHING that can replace getting enough sleep... buut anyway, I'm a senior too, I understand lol. Have you tried those 5hour energy drinks? They have the caffeine of one cup of coffee but have B vitamins (which are necessary for day to day energy apparently).
Quoted for truth. I'm a college senior and I work night shifts in addition to having classes at various times during the day. The 5hour energy drinks never give me any energy though, it really seems like these things affect everyone differently. And there is the crash factor with some of the erngy drinks, sometimes you're probably better off with less/no caffeine, especially with the sugary drinks.

I love that stuff, but I wish the raspberry ice kind had caffeine.

I don't like the "energy" drinks, which are often high in sugars, carbs and who knows what else. I prefer to go a NO CALORIE way and take Excedrin Migraine. It's got aspirin in it, which can help relieve tired muscles from working and working out and the much needed caffiene. Also, with energy drinks, they are cold, and go down easier than coffee.. you're more likely to get jittery.
I like the energy drinks, but I don't allow myself to drink the ones with sugar in them, I really like the Full Throttle sugar free and the Rockstar nocarb in teh blue can (though that one is a bit acidy tasting, but it's the only energy drink that actually gives me energy. others i drink purely due to caffeine addiction).
