Caught sleeping and need to fake waking up to hide it?
Steps
- Make groans and give incomplete responses to the waker without opening your eyes.
- Squint your eyes (with or without light coming in the room) and rub them if you would like.Advertisement
- Once you become "conscious," put your hands up behind your head or to your cheeks and take in a deep breath with your nose only. Upon letting air out, groan some more.
- Slowly look round at the waker, and groan again.
- Eventually, open your eyes wide and either lay there on your back/sit up in bed/or sit on the edge of the bed with your head down for about a minute.
- While looking as if it were a painful task, make your way out of the bed and stretch upon getting out.
- Ask what time it is, and perhaps mumble to yourself
- If they turn on the light put the covers over your head and roll around and say "stop"
- To really fool them, put a tiny bit of black eye shadow under your eyes. This will prove that you "just woke up".
- Act tired in front of everyone, but not too tired or people may think you didn't get enough sleep.
- Pretend to "light sleep".
- If someone woke you up at 6:00 in the morning, go to bed a little bit earlier to teach them not to wake you up so early (at least not on school days.)
Expert Q&A
Tips
- If someone doesn't believe you slept, reassure them by saying you didn't have a great sleep - tossing and turning all night, uncomfortable mattress, etc.Thanks
- Don't do this a lot, depending on the parents, they might ban TV until the sleep problem has resolved, or they might think you need to be taken to a doctor to diagnose the cause of sleepiness, or they might ask you to talk about your problems(you might do this because of stress.)Thanks
- It's also sometimes good to ask what time it is, especially if there aren't any clocks around.Thanks
Warnings
- Make sure you don't exaggerate any of the above steps or they might not believe you.Thanks
- If they don't believe you, there's no real way of proving you weren't asleep the entire night and you faked waking up.Thanks
