Preparation
Make sure you have your electronic devices, iPod/MP3, Cellphone, Snacks/Drinks available in your room. Try to hide them well.
Hide your laptop/phone/tablet on a bookshelf or in a desk drawer no-one would look in.
Wait until your parents finally get to bed. When you power it on, turn off all the speakers (or immediately plug in your headphones) and avoid watching videos. The sound may awaken your parents and will result in you getting caught.
Close all the doors between you and your parent's room. Don't close your parent's one as they may hear it or notice the next day.
Working on the computer
Turn off the light in the room the computer is in so as to not wake up anyone.
Remember if you hear someone coming then quickly click the "Power off" on your monitor so it stays on but the screen is off.
Devise a plan to sneak your computer to your room if it isn't already there. You could; Go to the bathroom as normally as possible. After you flush, take off running to your room. Your parents might wake up but will just assume that you went back to bed. You can also just sneak back. This is harder than it sounds. The noises you make in the middle of the night can seem a lot louder than in the day. Before you go to bed, test to see where the creaks are on your floor (if you have any), a loud creak might just give you away so it helps to be prepared and know where the floor creaks.
Try using the PSP's internet connection or the cell's connection.
Know what to do if you're using a laptop/tablet. Put your blanket slightly over the lid and dim the display so there's less light.
Place a blanket or t-shirt of some sort to line the bottom of your doorway on the inside, so less light is visible.
