If I nap I try to do it only for 20-30 minutes presuming that it takes me 5 minutes to fall asleep.

Though sometimes it is nice to sleep for like 15 hours

i read a study last year saying that 20 minutes is the optimum length for a nap. they were talking about how New York and maybe other places were opening these lounges where you pay to sleep in a noiseproof chamber during your lunchbreak or whatever.

This one guy said he started napping 20 minutes every hour of the day, for 8 hours of rest. He claimed to have so much more time to do stuff. Pretty weird...I mean, who has time to do that? :ugh:

I can't nap because it fucks with my head and I'll be groggy the rest of the day.

i nap all the time. i heard the optimum was actually around 45 min, but i could be wrong. i usually enjoy an hour to 3 hour nap. i sleep aroun 3 hours a day so naps are good

How ironic. I have just woken up from a 3 hour nap. I was right about disorientation because I thought I was at work for a moment.

Soon to go back to bed.

I am so a rookie! I can't stay awake in class if I don't take a nap when I get home from work. They last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half.
