14 Things That Happen When You Aren't a Morning Person
Career Girl Daily

I've always wanted to be a morning person, I really have, but it's just very hard for me. Waking up early is not my cup of tea, and will even put me in a bad mood for a long period of the day. No matter when I go to sleep, waking up early is a challenge. Talk about 7 a.m. college classes...those will kill you. Eventually, I hope to be able to rise at the brink of dawn and feel good doing it, but today is not that day.

1. Coffee is a must in the morning.

Not just one cup, but probably two or three. Without it you can barely keep your eyes open.

2. Anytime before 10 a.m. is not fun.

'

Those few hours in the early morning make you question why you even got out of bed to begin with.

3. Don't talk to me in the morning.

Please don't especially try to have a full blown conversation with me in the morning. I probably won't be listening and I will have nothing to say back because I'm technically still asleep.

4. Don't even look at me in the morning.

I'm not the most friendly before noon...I'm going to be real honest here.

5. It takes me 2-3 hours to fully wake up.

You can't wake up and feel energetic the second you get out of bed. It takes you a while, usually a few hours, before you feel completely ready and (awake enough) to take on your day.

6. You ask work to not schedule you before 10.

Work is not always the most fun, and neither are mornings. Paring them both together is not always the best combination. Your bosses or managers may even know you hate mornings and purposefully not schedule you.

7. You hate simply hearing "good morning."

I don't like hearing those words. Because, what's "good" about the morning? Nothing.

8. You have to set alarms to be up at a certain time.

While other people's bodies wake them up at a decent time, you have to set alarms in order to wake up. You probably set a few, and maybe hit snooze a few times as well.

9. You lay in bed for a while after waking up.

After waking up, you have to lay in bed for a while before forcing yourself out of your warm blankets and into the real world. It's difficult, I know.

10. You often have people laugh when you say 9 a.m. is early.

And you're often really confused at why they don't think it is.

11. You avoid scheduling morning college classes.

Getting finished with your full day of classes earlier is nice with morning classes...but is it really worth missing your beauty sleep for?

12. You'll skip looking good for getting more sleep.

I always plan the night before to wake up early and do my hair, makeup, and to pick out a cute outfit for the day. This plan never falls through...ever.

13. You don't speak much in the morning.

I always get the usual, "what's wrong with you today?" Nothing is ever wrong, but mornings are not for conversation. It's not that you hate all people, it's just that your brain is still waking up.

14. If someone wakes you up, they're doomed.

Please never wake me up screaming "rise and shine" especially. You will not be on my good side.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
