The Sleeping Illness

Do you know what's my biggest enjoyment during the exam periods? It is sleeping. It is the time when I can forget all about the stupid maths formulas which are useless in real life, the theories about why such and such happen, GP arguments, etc etc. Thus, I really look forward to sleeping everyday and even daydream about sleeping my days away after my exams.
However, now, (what the hell!) I'm suffering from insomnia! It pisses me off! Finally I have the time to sleep and I can't! So I began asking around and even surf the net for solutions. Here's 4 of them which I tried and, sadly, I declare them useless.
1) The typical "count the sheeps" method. It's boring, dry, dull, blah blah.. And you need to have a good memory for doing this. "1, 2, 3, this is stupid, 4, 5, ..., 150, can't believe I'm doing this, now is it 151 or 152? Heck! 153, 154, 155, 156, I'm getting angry, why am I not sleeping? Isn't method suppose to work? Now where am I?!" See, this happen to me so I declare this method, DUMB!
2) Drink a glass of warm milk before you sleep. But damn! Eating before sleeping makes you FAT! Next!
3) Listen to music. Rock music is definitely out in this case. Woodwinds or lullabies may do the trick but the way the singers croon and whine irritates me. Solution: switch off the radio and continue to sulk.
4) Go to bed only when drowsy. Duh!
What to do? What to do? Make me sleep!
