The experience of waking up in the middle of the night, and not being able to go back to sleep for a couple of hours or so. This usually leads to you doing things like checking Facebook, eating snacks and just generally doing what you'd do during the daytime, before going back to sleep like it never happened. The exact opposite of taking a nap, sometimes referred to as a 'reverse nap'. They are super inconvenient.
Emma: Hey, why were you posting something on Facebook at 5am last night?
Issie: Oh I was taking a wake.
Emma: Damn, I hate wakes. They're so inconvenient.

A name for a hand gesture you do to someone when you want them to do your bidding and/or change their mind for them. It is a reference to the Jedi mindtrick seen in the Star Wars movie where the Jedi says "these are not the droids you are looking for" and gestures and the bad guys reply "these are not the droids we are looking for and walk away. They really were the droids they were looking for.
