Sleep later! 2025

English as a Second Language (ESL)

The "Aludj máskor!" ("Sleep Later!") competition is an exciting 24-hour event held annually in Gyöngyös, Hungary. This year, it will take place on April 5th and 6th, 2025. The event brings together high school students from various schools to participate in a series of challenges that test their creativity, physical endurance, and teamwork.​

Event Organization and Programs

Teams, typically consisting of 25 to 40 students, gather at the Dr. Fejes András Sports Hall for the competition. The event kicks off with an opening ceremony, followed by a variety of activities designed to keep participants engaged and awake throughout the 24 hours. These activities include sports tournaments, such as basketball and soccer matches, creative workshops where teams design posters or perform skits, and quiz competitions that challenge their knowledge on various topics.​

Fair Play Cup

A highlight of the competition is the awarding of the Fair Play Cup, which recognizes the team that demonstrates the best sportsmanship and ethical behavior during the event. For example, in a previous competition, the team from Károly Róbert High School received the Fair Play Cup for their respectful conduct and willingness to assist other teams throughout the challenges.​

Participant Experience

We spoke with Anna Kovács, a student from Berze Nagy János High School, who participated in last year's event. She shared her experience: "The 'Aludj máskor!' competition was unforgettable. We faced various challenges that pushed our limits, but the camaraderie and support from teammates made it enjoyable. Winning wasn't our main goal; building friendships and creating memories were the best rewards."​

The "Aludj máskor!" competition continues to be a cherished event in Gyöngyös, promoting unity, resilience, and the spirit of fair play among students.

Hobbies

English as a Second Language (ESL)

I'm a typical student, I suppose. I study hard during the week and go out with my friends at the weekend. I don't have much free time but I've got lots of hobbies. I play tennis occasionally, about once every two months, and I do judo every now and then when I'm at home with my family. I don't do any sport at university, though. I watch TV most days for about an hour, but I hardly ever read. No books, no magazines, nothing! I listen to music all the time - in the car, in my room, when I'm doing homework, when I'm going to sleep. I love it. My favourite group is Coldplay but I like lots of different types of music. I go to concerts quite often, usually three or four times a year, and I always enjoy them.

My other big hobby is my computer. I don't play games on it - I think they're boring - but I'm online nearly every day. I chat to my friends on Facebook and look at photos, and I download films and music. I love watching films. I watch a film on TV almost every day and I go to the cinema twice a month, more or less. I don't like horror films - they're scary! - but I like romantic films and action films. I never read books but I read the newspaper every day online. I'm not into politics but I like reading about famous people. I think it's interesting.

So that's me. I'm a very ordinary person, really. I'm not a sportsman but I like playing tennis and doing judo. I'm not a bookworm but I love watching films and reading newspapers. And I'm not a musician but I'm always listening to music.
