      Revised Sentence: Yesterday at my desk, I was so sleepy that I kept yawning, so I decided to drink coffee to avoid falling asleep.

      Explanation: The revised sentence removes redundancy by simplifying “yawning and yawning” to “kept yawning.” It also eliminates unnecessary phrases like “or else I might fall asleep and nap right there at my desk,” which is condensed into “to avoid falling asleep.” This makes the sentence clearer and more straightforward.
