Sepa mau tidur kijap?

I was reading my April issue of Reader's Digest during lunch today and came across this article on "How The World Sleeps". It's interesting to know that the sleeping culture differs almost greatly around the world.

The one part which amazes me was that in Spain, napping in the afternoon (or siesta) is widely practiced even on weekdays. Was mentioned that this actually contributes to a more productive employee rather than working straight for hours and hours and it benefits the cardiovascular health too. Japan also supporting this idea. (Malas mo tulis panjang2, bagus lagi kalau korang baca ni article sendiri..hehe)

However, for Western perception, napping at work shows sign of laziness. Darn it. I think sepa sepa yang kerja in the private sector mesti paham ni. Yalah, most of the private sectors are somehow US based ka, UK based ka... etc etc...

Just recently, I started to be able to just dozed off on my desk. U know like during lunch hour / after 6pm (after office hours la) but it won't be for long period. I think the longest nap I took after 6pm was about 10 minutes... But then, even if I let myself to doze off, there's this subconcious state of myself thinking that maybe my boss will see me dozing myself in the office and wonder why am I still in the office without doing any work...

Oh, how I wish I'm in Spain or some other hot countries where siesta is allowed... Just imagine, if we are to be allowed to bring our fav blanket or pillow and given an hour or so just napping ourselves away.... It'll be a total bliss!
