I am a beginner Korean learner so I don't know how natural these sound but here are some resources
# "i need to do something now"
See https://www.howtostudykorean.com/unit-2-lower-intermediate-korean-grammar/unit-2-lessons-42-50/lesson-46/#463
# "don't stay up too late"
Someone had the same question on HiNative. It also seems to be basically the same as what Naver Papago translate gives, https://papago.naver.com/?sk=auto&tk=ko&st=Don%25%2339t%20stay%20up%20too%20late
> 너무 늦게까지 일어나 있지 마요

너무 -> very
늦게 -> late (adverb, ~게), https://www.howtostudykorean.com/unit1/unit-1-lessons-1-8/unit-1-lesson-8/#degree
까지 -> until, https://www.howtostudykorean.com/unit1/unit-1-lessons-9-16/lesson-12/#kp4
일어나 있지 마요 -> don't stay up

Here are some other notes,
늦다 -> to be late
일어나다 -> to get up
깨다 -> to wake (up)
일찍 자세요 -> Please go to bed(sleep) early
<verb>지 마세요 -> Please don't <verb>

"Don't stay up too late" is fine.
As for "I need to do something now." I would say "I need to go and do something now." Or "I have something that I need to do now" Just saying "I need to do something now" makes it sound like you're so bored that you have to do something to alleviate the boredom.
