<p>They dont stay up with me, in my room, helping me with my homework or anything... they just stay in the living room, reading a book, or watching some tv (quietly), etc..
They've actually never said, "we're gonna stay up with you". They've just always been there - unless i was pulling an alnighter - then they would giv me a lecture and sleep after 2-3ish...</p>
<p>my parents assume i go to bed at like 10:30/11:00. 11:30 is like, acceptable-ish if I have a major test. Little do they know that i just go down to my room and stuff clothes under the crack in the door so no light shines through… If they knew I was staying up till like 2 they would kill me. 
I’m such a bad child.</p>
<p>sometimes, I would lie to my mom, so that I won’t get in trouble. For example, I told her that I slept at 12:00 midnight last night, but I slept at 2 since I was studying calculus.</p>
