If You're Up At 1:00 or 2:00am, Do You Watch TV or Read a Book?

If I haven't been to bed yet, I could read a book and that would be my preference. But if I have gotten up from bed after trying to go to sleep my eyes wont work at that time either. I put on the House and Garden channel or Planet Green channel and zone out. Or now and then I will myLot at that time .

Hi Gtargirl, No Television and Book for me during midnight. Normally, I will stay up late at night to do MyLot, updating my blog,check up my emails and do other online stuffs. Only night time, I can freely do my own things. I am not a bookworm and I hardly read any books. I prefer to read parenting magazine and I got one magazine once a month. As for television programme, I will watch it after my dinner time. I like to watch Singapore dramas from Monday to Friday. YOu are a sport lover. Last time we do subscribe to ESPN channel,but at last we cancel it off. No more sport channel at my house cable television now.

If I am up that that hour, I will likely go on the internet, and see if I can get some work done. I am known to stay up all night, working on my writing, and my on-line earnings

Hi there, it's 1 am here now and tonight I am watching a movie on TV - Constantine with Keanu Reeves. I don't usually watch TV but since I am up late every night, I try to change my routine once in a while. As for the rest of the nights, I try to do different things as it can get really boring. I prefer books among everything else though. The downside of that is, if I am reading something that is really, really interesting, I can't put it down and I find myself still awake by the time the sun is rising outside, lol!

Well most of the time if i am awake for so long then it means.....i am studying....at times if there are good movies coming on television i watch them.....but yes i admit these days if i am free i do mylotting to as late as 1.00am in the morning......not always though......

the tv is always on but I am mostly on the computer, that is what I do all the time.

Sometimes I come in and work on puter but I sleep with the tv on and might wakeup and watch a good movie!

I get on here. That's exactly what I did last night.

It really depends. Watching tv might put me to sleep faster, specially with some programs LOL Reading will be more fulfilling but has one drawback: I tend to get too interested in the book and then forget sleep completely. However, as a rule, I rarely have trouble sleeping. WHen it's time for me to sleep... believe me I sleep hehehehe

When I am up on that time definitely you will see me reading pocket books. You will seldom see me watching tv because we are saving electricity. My books that I am happens to ready by the way would be fiction books or love story that is why even at that time my eyes are wide awake.

When iam up till midnight i usually watch tv rather than reading books i do watch midnight news to make me sleep faster.

hmmm it really depends on my mood. if there is a really good book i want to read. i'd go ahead and read it. the chances are, i'd finish the book and only head to the bed at say 5am. As for watching a drama, if i'm hooked to the drama, i'd watch till around 5 am before i'd head to bed. 5am is normally the time my parents wake up. And i don't want them to "nag" me. And chances are by 5 / 6am, my body would just want me to lie on bed even if i'm not tired.

Oh my!!! I never up that late. that is too much. If there is time I sleep that late, it might be that my kid is sick or I am sick or maybe hubby.. but just to watch TV or whatever? I better go sleep. Or if I can't sleep for some reasons I maybe read a book not watching TV.

I would and have watched tv. Once in awhile I will get on the computer but won't stay long. If I've been asleep and then wake up, trying to post discussions or respond is next to impossible. Am not fully awake. If I simply can't go to sleep, I'll watch tv usually something I really like and that will definitely put me right to sleep.

I turn on the weather channel for noise, then I go sit in the next room so I can just barely hear what is going on. It does not overstimulate me that way, and I usually get bored and go to sleep.

goal is to try to get back to sleep, so reading a book usually does that for me, whereas watching TV tends to keep me awake. So usuallyif I wake up in the middle of the night, I tend to read a book.

If I have to get up, I will watch Tv. If I want to get back to sleep, then I will watch something very boring like a political speech or a stock market report. My eyes do not cooperate in the evening either. But more then likely I will just close my eyes and hope that I will go to sleep. It may take a while, but then I am a light sleeper anyway.

Hello gtargirl. There were a few times when I could not fall asleep. Then I got up to surf on the Internet again till it was five in the morning. Then the whole next day I was so exhausted due to the lack of sleep the previous night. Or I listen to music or radio if I could not fall asleep. I don't like those sleepless nights.

Hi there , If i am up at 1.00am in the morning , i would definitely switch on the TV ,It would usually be some comedy shows that comes up that i would watch . Cheers
