When I used to not work between semesters I would do a cycle similar to the 28 day cycle ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/28-hour\_day](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/28-hour_day)) and it worked pretty well. I would fall asleep instantly and wake up pretty refreshed. These types of cycles only really work for students though.
