    This. I love sleep. I look forward to it every night~

    The feeling of laying down and being in peace (assuming I am not being chased by Saryka with a shotgun) is just..well, it's just fantastic.

    Bahaha! That's only if you wake me up before I'm good and ready on the weekends! :P

    That's nuts! I never knew it was that low.

    The Black Swanna is the most graceful creature in existence. There's your fact for the day.

    Did you know that when Dolphins sleep, they only shut down half their brain because if they completely fell asleep like we do, they would sink and drown.

    Lol, well I guess that's good for my dreams! :D

    When I sleep, I might as well be hibernating. XD I can sleep through pretty much anything once I actually fall asleep, but I get pretty nasty if someone wakes me up when I don't intend to get up early that day.

    But it would be nice to just skip winter, sleep through it, and wake up when it's springtime. ;;

    I wish I could sleep through anything. I'm the lightest sleeper in the world I swear.

    I would hate hibernating >.< So many people that I wouldn't get to see for far too long =[.

    Well, you know how when you go to sleep, you wake up and it feels like it's been 5 minutes? That's what hibernating would be like. So really, it would just be like going to sleep normally. ^_^

    When I was young, I didn't believe the night was 8-12 hours long. I thought my parents were lying to me, because every time I woke up it felt like I fell asleep 5 minutes before. So, one night I stayed up all night.

    Never again.

    I knew they slowed their hearts and breathing rates, but I didn't realise it was that low!
    yep a new study on them pointed that out. also, more and more bears are not completing the hibernation process because they couldn't find enough food to eat to make it through, so they have to wake up to scavenge.

    Ugh sleeping <33 I've gotten sooo lazy over the years, I used to hate sleep, too. I think it comes with being a teenager. XD;

    I feel like hibernation would be like what Landorus said, you would wake up and it wouldn't feel nearly as long as it actually was. That's why it would be such a nice way to just quickly skip winter altogether, so painlessly~

    I'm not too fond of sleeping, either. So I have question for ya'll:

    If there was a pill/other method that gave you all the benefits of sleep(minus dreams, of course) would you take that instead of sleeping?

    Me, personally, it would depend on they day and what is going on. I would only take the pill if I needed to finish something important, or just needed complete alertness. Otherwise, I would prefer the natural way of sleep.

    There are birds who dont sleep, they shut half their brain off then swith later on. That way they can stay in the air :P

    as for me, im ok with sleeping, at day or night. I guess im a heavy sleeper
    I uasley sleep with tv or music on, but with the tv I might have a dream about the shpw thats on(i guess i hear the sounds then it translates to a dream, but with visuals too)
    I wish I had mor e dreams
