Take along a hobby to take with you, like knitting or sketching, load up on smart-phone games (and take your charger), take a friend with you who can spend at least part of the time with you and play card-games. Take some favorite snacks. What did the clinic indicate you could bring for entertainment?
Do you have to stay awake tonight, before the EEG? If so, bake some cookies or snack bars to take with you to pass the time - that's what I did :)
 
I wouldn't recommend anything that is going to stimulate you though...you want to be in a relaxed state not in an anxious one...I suggest some breathing exercises, meditation, and prayer...believe in yourself... I CAN DO IT :)
