" Grey's Anatomy" is arguably one of the most popular shows on TV, with one of the most loyal fanbases. All the characters are unique and have good qualities and bad qualities that make them who they are—much like the types of naps that we take. Here is who each type of nap would be if they were a character on "Grey's Anatomy."
Cristina Yang: The Power Nap
This is the nap you take when you have exactly 12 minutes before you have to leave for class. You have a really busy day but you want to take advantage of that prime sleeping time. You have a power nap when you have so many things to do but feel like you'll go crazy if you don't relax for a few minutes. They're not exactly the best kind of nap, but they're quick, efficient, and get the job done, just like Yang.
Derek Shepherd: The Accidental Nap
This nap happens when you're watching Netflix in bed or reading a boring article for a class and your eyes close without you even realizing. You might not have even noticed how tired you were, so you wake up feeling confused at what just happened but not mad at it. This is similar to Derek and Meredith's relationship on "Grey's"—she didn't know she needed him until he appeared.
Meredith Grey: The Two-Year Nap
This nap is either the worst or the best nap you can take, just like Meredith is simultaneously the worst and best character on the show. This nap lasts upwards of three hours, and you'll probably end up with crease marks on your face from it being smushed into a pillow for so long. You either wake up feeling like you're ready to climb Everest or like you're hung over from too much sleep.
Alex Karev: The In-Class Nap
Although Alex is one of my favorite characters, he's known for occasionally making bad decisions, or having bad things happen to him. This is like when you accidentally take a nap in class. Either by choice or by accident, your eyes close for what feels like 10 minutes, but what's probably only 5 seconds, and when you wake up, you scan the rooms for signs that anyone saw you.
April Kepner: The Annoying Nap
This nap is when you are so tired, and you're lying in bed ready to take a nap, but you can't seem to fall asleep. You have too many thoughts in your head, and you're thinking of that stupid thing you said to your crush or that everyone saw you trip in Bodo's this morning. You can't seem to make your brain stop, just like no one can ever seem to make April shut up.
