Sleeping in Class

Everyone has late nights sometimes, and just needs a nap. That wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't in the middle of a class, but sometimes it just happens.  Is it worth it? Are the few minutes of napping really important enough to risk getting yelled at by the teacher? It is worth it, but there are many things you can take into precaution to reduce the chances of getting caught.

1. Make sure if there is a pattern in which the teacher calls on the students, that you are not close to being up.  Nobody likes being the one that everyone giggles at for being caught napping when the teacher calls on you. 

2. Make sure you know what's going on in class, so if the teacher does call on you, you are able to at least make up a reasonable answer.

3. SNEAK IT IN. Don't sit there sprawled out on the desk drooling all over your arm. Gently rest your head on your hand, or put your head down slightly. Stay comfortable, but don't make it too obvious.

4. Make sure it's not an everyday thing. Some teacher can REALLY get mad if it seems like you just don't care at all what they say.  A few minutes of napping isn't worth getting sent to the office is it?

5. Pick the right classes to sleep in. If you know it's a chill teacher, then maybe it'll be fine to sneak in a nap once in a while.  If the teacher is super strict or unreasonably mean, just force yourself to stay awake for that class.

6. You should never plan on sleeping in class. You never want to miss any lesson during school because you never know what's going to end up being super important.  If it is something like a test review, DEFINITELY stay up...you never want to miss out on those.

Study hard, Sleep well!
