The Life Of A Morning Person

We are the most hated people.

The Life Of A Morning Person
RD

For some reason, many people dislike the ones who wake up at the early hours of the day and go to sleep before midnight strikes.

I am one of those “early-risers” or as many people call them “a morning person.”

I didn’t choose the “morning person life,” it chose me.

During the school year as a college student who prefers 8am’s, because I would rather get my classes started early and end my classes early, I wake up at 6am.

All my mornings started at 6am throughout my four years of high school. Now as a college student, my alarm goes off again at 6am.

Although some mornings I do complain because I would love to have another hour to sleep in, the truth is I love waking up early.

The Cons:

Although, I love being a morning person the worst part is I can barely stay up after midnight. Don’t invite me to watch Netflix after 11 o’clock at night because most likely I will fall asleep on your couch once you click the play button.

Also one of the worst parts of being a morning person is you wake up earlier than your family and friends, so you tend to get bored until they wake up.

Sadly, weekends are the same as weekdays. Although I tell myself that I will sleep in on Saturday’s and Sunday’s, it never really happens.

The Pros:

Coffee isn’t a necessity in my life but I still decide to have it as a supplement with my eggs in the morning, which is why breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Once lunch rolls around, I am starving!

I love waking up when almost everyone else is asleep because I have time to myself.

I love starting my day early because I get things done faster and have more time during the day to accomplish my tasks.

While people are sleeping, I’ve already eaten breakfast, cleaned the house, and finished the errands.

If you envy morning people, remember they actually envy night owls because they can stay up all night like most people.

Morning people have an internal clock that wakes them up even when they have no alarm clock to do so. Once we are awake, we want to get our day started, although we have those days that we go back to sleep just for the heck of it.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
