Have you seen those sad boxes? They are meant to help gradually wake you up in a good mood0

I just had a wee look at them the now, they look good but a bit outside my price range got myself a radio alarm clock today, cos iv completely stopped hearing the alarm I set on my phone sleep right through it0

I am not a morning person until I get my body moving. Generally I feel pretty tired and so I must get my body moving. I have daily chores I want to get done I start there, after task I exercise. I feel pretty good after words, well I feel functional. I can't keep my self awake past 12a so I can say yes I am a morning person but that doesn't mean the bluebirds are happy to see me; not at least until I get my self moving where then I am in a better mood.0

I'm a total night owl. Like I can get 4 hours of sleep, be a zombie all day long, and once the sun goes down I'm wide awake and ready to go. It's quite annoying sometimes.1

I used to be a night owl but since I've switched to fruit/veggie smoothies in the morning (and lunch) I've become a morning person. I would suggest trying a raw diet and getting at least 4 hours of REM sleep. For me, those 2 changes morphed me into a morning person0

I'm a teacher, so I'm at 5:30 every morning. Usually, repeating "I hate my job" (I don't really, though) over and over gets me going. Then angrily battling bad traffic wakes me up more. There's a happy little rush of adrenaline you can get from being side-swiped by a minibus. I spend about 30 minutes after I get to work staring blankly into space as I answer 50,000 student questions. After the staring blankly, though, I wake up. It's all about being as grumpy as possible in the morning, obviously.1

I'm a Night Owl. I do get my 7-8 hours of sleep though. I walk for 30 minutes a day. I feel great!0

Think this may work lol0 -
Both. Im a happy person in the morning and I love staying up at night. There's something about the morning sun and breeze and something about the moonlight and breeze that I love.1

That would actually keep me awake. I can't remember the last time I got sleepy reading a book.futureicon wrote: »I'm a total night owl. Like I can get 4 hours of sleep, be a zombie all day long, and once the sun goes down I'm wide awake and ready to go. It's quite annoying sometimes.
This is me. It really is annoying.0 -
Think if it was sunny every morning that would make a huge difference, it's hard to get out of bed when it's grey n miserable outside but I guess il just have to embrace the horrible Glasgow weather cos it ain't going anywhere, how I wish I was in Spain....0
