forty winks
(idiomatic) sleep, extra sleep, or a nap

"I really wanted to catch another forty winks when my alarm went off. "

mga nagagawa talaga ng mga polsci na professors oh pag hindi na ginanahang magturo...

SIR (to class): O tignan nyo yan, si (ako), tutulog-tulog din yan...
Class: *laughs*
SIR (to class): pero tignan nyo, nag-foforty winks yan!
Classmate 1: Sir, forty wings?
SIR (to Classmate 1): ano? wings?
Classmate 2: sir, anu daw po ba sinanbi ninyo, forty wings po ba?
Class: *laughs again*
Ako (to myself): nga naman? forty wings? *does a little flapping, classmates at the back are giggling when they saw me do it*
SIR (to class): hindi, hindi... forty winks... *writes the word forty winks on the whiteboard*
SIR (to class): ang ibig sabihin nyan, mababaw lang ang tulog nya habang nagkakalase ako... nakakasagot nga yan habang tulog eh! *everybody laughs*

immediately after the class, while SIR and I were going out of the classroom:

SIR: o, hindi ka nanaman ba nakatulog?
Ako: opo sir, nag-trabaho at nag-aral pa po ako eh...
SIR: Ah... kaya pala nag-forty winks ka...
Ako: Sir, hindi po yan forty winks... ENDURANCE po tawag dyan! ^_^
