Fake Sleep
When I was younger, my parents came in to check on me and see if I was sleeping. Sometimes I'd be reading late at night, I'd hear them at my door, and then I shoved the book under my pillow and rolled over. Sometimes they know, but usually they couldn't tell from my deep breathing and sometimes light snoring. I was a big snorer back then. xD
I often read late at night when I was a kid, I was a bit of a nerd back then... didn't have as many friends as I should've. I was all wrapped up in books. Sometimes, I even ate in bed. Candy. :3 I hade to hide that oo. So, what about you guys? Have you ever faked a sleep? How often? Why? |
I do sometimes, lol. For no reason at all, to trick my hubby, lol.
|
well I dont remember doing that much but when It was Christmas and I wanted to catch Santa or when it was Reyes Magos (a celebration in my country in wich the three kings bring you presents) I wanted to see them and fake Sleeping heheh, also when I wanted to listen to private parent conversations hahaha but not really much n_n
|
xD That's cool. My family always told me not to look for Santa or he would keep all the presents for himself. That's cool about Reyes Magos, you live in Brazil? Mexico?
|
Oh I do, I do it if I am annoyed at
my fiance and I don't want to talk to him when we are in bed or I did it as a kid for your reason also coz I loved staying up all hours of the night reading and had even stayed up all night just reading my books coz they were my friends haha |
I sure know I used to do that.
Sometimes it was just to see if I could trick my parents, other times it was to cover up that I was still away reading my newest book (I did it a couple times for the Harry Potter book , after the first night of course). |
I fake sleep a lot. When I hear people talking outside my door, I pretend I'm still asleep, because soon after, they come in my room to tell me to do chores or something. But I'm 'asleep', so they'll tell me in an hour X3
|
I think every kid there ever was and ever will be has done that at one point or another.
|
I do that sometimes, mostly when I'm really tired and trying to go to sleep, but someone walks in my room and wants me to do something. If they think I'm sleeping, they'll leave me alone.
|
Oh, I'm sure I did it loads of times as a kid. I just can't think of any exact instances that are remotely interesting and worth telling.
Knowing how I was, I probably did it alot to trick people so I could spring up and yell "BOO!" and scare them. I did stuff like that alot, for some reason. Now, I don't generally do that. No instances where I need to do that have presented themselves. Though I think some times when I'm taking a nap, I'll be ALMOST asleep when mom comes in to ask me something (not knowing I'm napping). Then I'll pretend I'm all the way asleep, to get her to leave me alone. XD |
I am more likely to be caught going to bed hastily after I hear someone else getting up to go to the loo in the dead of night. I love late hours. Also, when I'm napping and asked for an errand, I pretend to be fast asleep so I won't do it.
|
Echh, that chain of behavior has permanently messed up my sleep pattern ^^
I've stayed up all night playing videogames, watching movies, reading all the way through a book I just couldn't put down, and just because I'm a plain insomniac. Bleh. Morning classes and shifts are murder. I usually can't help staying up before hand on those nights either, so I'll usually be operating on four or five hours of sleep for them >< |
I don't really fake sleep. xD
Well, wait. Sometimes. Not really often though. I do it just so I don't have to get up. Or so my mom won't make me do chores. XD That works too. 8]] |
I would usually fake my sleep for Christmas and Reyes Magos day. o.O
Getting the gifts pretty early was really important for me! <,<; |
@Angelin - geh! I'd have trouble sleeping on Christmas eve. It's the same every year. I'll without fail be up late because I can't sleep, and then my siblings will be banging down the door at what, 7:30 in the morning? Shouting "WAKEUPWAKEUPITSTIMETOOPENTEHPREZENTS" Bleh. :-P
|
Of course I did it when I was a child, but only sometimes. For example, I tried to catch Santa or Easter Bunny when they were putting presents under Christmas tree or just somwhere (when talking about Bunny).
Unfortunately, I've never caught them! XD *big surpise, huh?* But sometimes I still do fake sleeping. When it's very late and someone come to my room, because he want something from me. When I pretend, he'll leave me alone. |
I used to do it as a child; not while reading, my room was on the other side of the house and my mom was usually in her bedroom or the living room, but rather in the morning when she would try to wake me up and get me to school... I was horrible, and she always knew.
Now, though, I don't do it in the sense of people coming to my room... Rather, I don't answer my phone or just not show up to a place, and when they ask where I was or instant message me, I said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I was napping." XD; I'm a horrible person, aren't I? D: |
I have faked sleeped before. To get out of going to church, school, and my stupid psychologist appointments. It works... Usually.. *yawns* I also try to sleep...but resting isn't fake sleep..right?
|
I've definitely pretended that I was asleep. Sometimes to hear in on conversations, other times just because I don't want people to bother me. Also, when I do it, I have to have my face not turned towards light, or I still squint my eyes when they're closed XD
|
I mostly do it when I want my dad to leave me alone. xD Or, a couple of times, I faked sleep on a bus so that other people would start talking like I was asleep, because I needed to know something. >> That may or may not be immoral, I'm not sure. But they wouldn't TELL me!
Yeah, as you know, I don't get enough sleep, except apparently in class, so... xP I used to pretend to be asleep to cover up my reading ALL the time. Sue would get superangry, like, "I heard you turning pages!" and I'm like "*Continues to pretend to sleep*" and there was nothing she could do about it. *Laugh* |
you ever noticed, when you go to bed to sleep
the only way to get to sleep is in a way to fake sleep you lie down and close your eyes as tho you were asleep, in an attempt to make yourself fall asleep :D lol i know that was really random, but there ya go lol and yes i used to do what your talking about as a kid, used to sit up late watching tv, and if i heard one of the parents approaching it'd be tv off and eyes shut lol |
I do that sometimes on trips to none annoy me xD
But it depends on the person u.u' Like there was once where my and my best friend were resting our heads because he passed all day laughing and entertained by joking all around. <.<;; But the thing was that when we were in the bus we were tired of s***ty talk of the other students. They seriously need to wash their mouths o.O They don't speak they yell bad words and then just laugh by something idiotic -_-;; But anyway, they were planning to joke with the people that were around them. And we were the first victims x.x So we were like " Quick! Fast sleep!" in whisper of course u.u' A hot guy -drools- came to us to ask something. And me couldn't help it but to 'wake up' and answer him. He just asked the stupidest thing ever and I was like "Er.. I don't think you should even ask that..." he insisted in me answering but what he wasn't expecting was my friend snore out loud to not laugh. I answered him and he started to laugh. But the funny thing was that he laughed at the others. And then we started to talk a little more.. And thats another story <.<;; Al I know is that his ex-girlfriend is less jerk with me now Dx I will never know why after what I told him.. |
I don't really have to fake sleep anymore, since I always keep my door closed, but I do anyways sometimes. It's when my parents are fighting in the morning and I don't feel like getting in the middle of it. By just getting up, my mom drags me into the middle of it by ranting to me about my dadand yelling at me if I don't do something about it. It's like, well what the fuck do you expect me to do? I'm not his parent and you're his wife, so YOU do something. :roll: Most of the time she starts it anyways, so I'm not really keen on doing anything anyways.
When I was younger and HAD to keep my door open, I had to fake sleep if I wanted to watch TV late at night. If I was awake, my mom would notice and scream at me. If I was asleep, my mom would just walk by and didn't think of turning the TV off. I also had to hide me being on my cellphone, or else she would take it away. Now she doesn't even care, I think. |
I do that all the time, even now. (I'm only 14... xD)
I play my DS in bed all the time. Then my mom'll walk by my door, and I'll fake asleep. Same with reading. I'm such a little kid at heart. xD |
I fake-sleep all the time. o-o; Sometimes I swear that I need a baseball bat to knock me out. But most of the time, I'm a log. A log that will beat the living daylights out of you if you wake it up, if logs could.
