   Ruth: Now Akane!

  Akane: Yeah.
  Ruth: I've noticed that you fall asleep everywhere.
  Akane: Oh, you've noticed. Oh, no, it's actually a problem that I have.
  Ruth: Really?
  Akane: Yeah, I do get sleepy.
  Ruth: Well, it's just that whenever we come back from work, or we go to work, you always fall asleep on the bus.
  Akane: I do. I'm so tired in the mornings.
  Ruth: So, you're tired in the mornings (Mm-hm) so don't you sleep at night?
  Akane: I do. I actually do go to bed quite early but I hate waking up really early
  so I think it's the early mornings that really get to me.
  Ruth: So do you think lots of people in your family do this, because you know,
  you really do seem to sleep far more than anybody I've ever met.
  Akane: Actually, yeah, my father does say that he falls asleep at work.
  Ruth: No!
  Akane: Yeah.And my mom falls asleep at work as well when there's not costumers.
  Ruth: Oh, you're joking.
  Akane: Yeah. Yeah. So it runs in the family.
  Ruth: So have you ever done that? Have you ever fallen asleep at work?
  Akane: Actually, well, I don't fall asleep when I'm teaching1, cause its such a busy job (Yeah) but when I was working in an office, when I was doing medical research2, it was such a boring job that I did used3 to fall asleep in front of the computer sometimes. It's really embarrassing4.
  Ruth: So have you ever had an embarrassing moment when you've fallen asleep?
  Akane: Actually, yes. One time we went to watch the symphony5 orchestra6
  and it was beautiful music and I was enjoying myself but I just fell asleep in between.
  Ruth: Oh, no, Akane.
  Akane: Yeah.
  Ruth: So how many hours sleep do you normally7 get Akane?
  Akane: Well, I try to get at least nine. Of course that's not always possible,
  so I'd say on average8 about eight and a half hours.
  Ruth: Eight and a half.
  Akane: Yeah.
  Ruth: Well, I suppose if you add that to the five hours a day that you sleep that's quite a lot.
  Akane: If you put it that way.
