I have recently developed this habit of listening to music in the morning. It would be the first thing that i would do the moment i get up from my bed after sleep. When i wake up, i would walk out of room, step into the drawing room, switch on the television and put on either MTV or V channel and listen Hindi songs. I like listening to music while i would be busy getting ready for my office. I have developed this habit quite recently and i just wonder why? Perhaps it delays me for reaching office on time. And i just forget the time when i would be busy listening to music.
does it happen with you too? do you listen to music in the morning when you wake up? If yes, then what kind of music do you listen to? Or what would be the first thing that you would do? Do you have any such strange habit?

instead of putting on the radio, i usually turn on the TV and listen to the morning news. sometimes im not able to listen to either the radio or the TV because my mom is nagging (yet again).
see here, waking up early is hard for me. and i think it is harder for my mom to be able to wake me up. often times i would sleep again and just turn off my alarm or just press the snooze button in my mobile phone.
and this is the reason why i often find myself running late.

That usually happens with me as well. I ould often set an alarm at some time early in the morning but i would often snooze my alarm and would get up atleast half an hour late than my alrm time set. And since, i live away from home, so there is no one nagging me up to get up early and neitehr there is any time restriction from office, becuase usually it ends up leaving late from office in the evening, so they don't mind me coming late in the morning.
but its really difficult to get up early in the morning

First of all, i dont think its a strange habit, most of them have this habit of listening to music just after waking up....you have recently developed this habit, but i have recently lost this habit due to lots and lots of work left for me to do once i wake up....i really loved those days when i used to wake up and immdtly head to the music player (that was before Rhea was born arnd 4 years back)...even now, i can, but not able to really concentrate on the music as such....thats a very good habit Vinni, please continue it, it really makes you keep yourself fresh throughout the day, your day would really start off well with music

Busy..Well, i would be already late by the time, i get up in the morning. I am scheduled to reach my office latest by 9:30 am. and it would be already 8:45 when i would get up. Still then i would wander around my house listening to music, doing some exercise and moreover, since we are 5 people in the house, then there would eb a queue build up for using washrooms.
But can't give my sleep ... LOL

I used to listen to music as I got ready for my day, but now I am moving from room to room to get myself ready and my dogs out in the yard, fed, back out, and then put in their room to stay while I'm at work. I do, however, HAVE to listen to music in my car on the way to work. I prefer to have music on in my office as well, but there are a lot of days I get too busy from the moment I walk in that I don't think to turn it on.
All in all, music is awesome and starting your day with it is nice. I just wish I didn't have to rush so much or I'd stop and listen to the music more often. :D

I just wonder y do you have to run from room to room to get urself ready? well, ya, starting ur day with music makes it a wonderful start and u really cherish it the whole day. Listening to music in office is somewhat difficult for me because of company's policies which denies me to do so.But whenever i am at home, i would just sit down reading soemthing and listening to music.

Hey, that not fair. Even ur father has his own preferences of listening to music. y should you be annoyed at him then. Anyway, schools have their restrict timings and you can't afford to be late there.

When I wake up I usually look for breakfast. Or I go online and check the blogs that I subscribe to. I don't know why I need to listen to music when I'm not bored or restless anyway. Music is for the night in my opinion. I need to listen to my ipod when I work out in the afternoon but I'm more likely to play some on the computer when I'm working at night and not really during the day. I've never noticed this. I think it's a little strange actually.

I cannot manage my day when I wake up first day in the morning not to have a music like an energizer for my situation during my household chores of the day it is one of my main ingredients in the day with my cup of coffee....because it is very relaxing when you are listening to music and do a household chores.

Hi vipuchawla,
To me this habit is not strange. I do the same thing first thing i wake up. Either switch on tv and tune on music channels or turn on my hi-fi to play music cds or play the music on my computer. Depending what I am in the mood of. I listen to Rnb and Hip hop. Usually the songs with faster beat, because the fast tempo wake me up and do things faster like getting ready to leave.

Oh that good that music helps you get ready faster. I dont have a cd player at home, since i live with friends in a rented house. Though my friend has a world space radio in his room but he has his own choice of music. And thats nice to know that i am not the odd one out in this habit.

I always listen to music after im done in my bed. Its nice to hear your favorite music while your sipping your cup of coffee in the backyard and there is that song soothing your feeling and making you more relax before you go out in your home and make your work in the outside world.

Well I have never developed such habit of listening music early morning and waking up and listening to music. This doesn't mean I don't like listening to music. I have 5+1 pieces of Sony sound system and its sound is very great and it also have 5 CD changer and can play VCD / DVD. I go to washroom when I wake up, brush my teeth and then have breakfast and get ready to go to work.

not for me. i listen to the music when i got depressed or angry or some other bad mood. and i like some kinda rocks to relief myself. listen to the music in the morning make you feel really good and maybe that kinda good mood can continue the whole day. maybe i will try sometimes.

yes, i do. after getting up, i stretch my hands. there is either my nokia mobile or my ipod lying there. it depends what comes in my hand from the shelf. if it is the nokia, then i tune to 93.5 or 92.7 fm and listen to songs from there. sometimes, if i am in a devotional mood, then 104 fm for bhakti sangeet. and on other days, it is my ipod which has the bichhoo songs. they are tremendous. full of rhythm and energy..

I do, ,i usually turn on my pc and sign in to yahoo and listen to launch cast radio. It is my way of getting ti know the time while doing my chores and i enjoy the music it kind of gives me extra energy for the day. I really love music cause i listen to it too while at work whenever i can turn on my music media player while working. Listening to music kind of stimulates my senses so i can perform better while listening to it. Well, my work is mostly typing on the computer so it's no problem with my music on and anyway it is just as soft as can be, or i use my headphones.Nice day to you and happy listening.
