I'm so tired my tired is tired.

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.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
