SLEEPING HABITS

hi everyone! Hoje, um pouco de compreensão de texto, apresentando um novo vocabulário 'sleeping habits' ( pegar no sono, acordar, tirar uma soneca, etc...) ps: notas de vocabulário logo abaixo do texto
Enjoy it!!! ;)
My name is Janet and I'm a college student. I don't get much sleep on school days because I have so much to do. Usually when I go to bed I fall asleep very quickly, except when I'm worried about an exam or an assignment. I'm a heavy sleeper, which is a good thing because my neighborhood is kinda noisy. My roommate, on the other hand, is a light sleeper.

Whenever I use an alarm clock, I have to put it far away from my bed otherwise I'll just turn it off and go back to sleep. But even when I oversleep I'm usually able to make it to class on time.

I rarely take naps during the day. Sometimes it is really hard to stay awake while the professor is speaking - I doze off now and then during class.


Vocabulary:

I don't get much sleep = Eu não durmo muito

I fall asleep = Eu pego no sono, adormeço

I'm a heavy sleeper = Eu tenho o sono pesado

kinda noisy = meio barulhento (a)

light sleeper = pessoa que tem sono leve

go back to sleep = voltar a dormir

oversleep = dormir demais, além da conta

take naps = tirar sonecas

stay awake = ficar acordado

doze off = pegar no sono de leve (sem ter intenção); cochilar
