i took a nap this afternoon after we got back from fresbie golfing. i slept for two and half hours. wow, that’s a lot. i always wish i can have a nap every afternoon. see that’s how i was trained as a baby. my grandma used to force to take a nap in the afternoon when i was young. i hated that back then. now i realized it all came back to me. i felt bad i didn’t take advantage of that back then.
do you like to take naps? americans don’t seem to train children taking naps. i know i had to take naps in kindergarden and sometimes in elementary school. in japan, i think companies pay their workers to take naps. doesn’t this sound like a dream?

naps seem nice, but, i can only take them when i’m very sick. if i just take a nap, i’ll wake up feeling all tired and i dunno, it’s a weird feeling–and it makes me unable 2 function the rest of my day and i feel gloomy. so, i cant take naps ever–no matter how tired i am!
ahh… we should have naps in school =). or at least a quiet time of some sort. i’m always tired right after lunch, during spanish. and i LIKE spanish. sheesh. naps are good for you. in some countries, all the shops and such shut down once a day while everyone has a large lunch and takes a nap! ;-)
I’m American and I remember how we had naptime in kindergarten everyday, hehe. I dislike taking naps during the day though, it makes me feel wierd afterwards, lol.
My mom always made me take a nap during the day until I started kidnergarten. I hated it so much.
Now, I feel like I have to take a nap when I come home from class. I’m always just so exausted. I love naps. I tend to fall asleep with the TV on, so I have strange dreams involving whatever is on the TV. Hehe.
Sis, don’t babies need more sleep though? hehe The older you are.. the less time you’re suppose to spend sleeping… well, it’s true when you’re 80 or something.
I’ve been napping a lot recently… esp after work, i feel so tired sitting in front of a computer all day. = heheh I wish I could sleep at work like the Japanese too heheehehe
