Pretty sure it’s option #2, syllabic meter. If I get it wrong my bad!!

Laying down in my bed, i’m so sleepy but my mind is wide awake. Tomorrow is Christmas and I couldn’t be more excited, and not the reasons you’d think. Reviving gifts is cool, but I love the feeling of giving. There’s no greater feeling than having ur loved ones receive your gifts! So i’m laying here now, eventually i’ll fall asleep but tomorrow is Christmas and I can’t wait to see all of my families reactions.
