all-nighter

A study or work session that goes through the night; studying without sleep (usually a last-minute course of action).

The term is popular with college students who spend the night before an exam studying (or 'cramming'), trying to learn a lot of material in a short period of time. The term is frequently used in the phrase 'pull an all-nighter'.

1) We pulled an all-nighter to finish the report.

2) I pulled an all-nighter to study for my math exam.

all ears

Listening carefully; keenly attentive.

You listen with your ears, so if you are 'all ears' your entire being is listening to someone speak.

I was all ears as Svet told me his exciting story.
