I decided to stop working and focus on my getting my degree. I promised myself I would get up early and study. I had such a great plan! Unfortunately, I love sleeping. I am mad at myself because I now sleep until 9 or 10 am everyday! I am trying to get motivate myself to get up earlier. I even told myself I will burn more calories if I get up earlier. Ha Ha... that didn't work either.
What about you.... what time do you get up?

I am a writer and have never been a morning person. That's one of things I like about being an artist (of course, there are many others as well). I love setting my own schedule in terms of when I get up. I hope a never have a job where I need to get up early. It won't work well for me I know this.

I wake up at around 6 and I listen to the sounds of the morning, the birds, the chickens, the rooster. It makes me feel so relaxed and good about the coming day. Then I get up and have a hot chocolate. Cheers!!

I am a bit of an early bird- I have to be up for 6.00am when I am at work. A typical lie in for me at the weekend is 8.00 am though if I sleep later I wake later. I would prefer to get up at 7.00 in the winter but I can't due to work. The dark and cold mornings are difficult but I don't find it too difficult to get up.

i do night shifts, so i end up getting up in the afternoon. i don't get much time on my work days to burn calories or to do any pending work. my body has adjusted to the night shifts in such a way that when i am at home on my off days i don't get sleep at night. my lifestyle has altered in such a way that i do no socializing at all. i really wish i can get a day job. i would really love to sleep at night and get up latest by 8 in the morning.

hi
I generally get up at 7:00 AM in the morning and sleep at 11:00 in the night.I think this is the right time and sufficient time for sleep.Remaining time I never sleep unless I get bore.

Hi friend,
I am not a lover but if i sleep i sleep continuously.Its really my bad habit.I can be there without sleep through out the night but i can't awake up early in the morning.Even though i sleep early at the night also,i can't get up early at the morning too.In future i have to get rid of getting late at the morning.
Have a nice day

when i was a student i would really give preference to my studies and i would get up daily in the early mornings and study and also while my exams i would get up early and do my studies. and from i was my schooling i had the habbit of gettig up early morning and studying. and morever while exams i never get more of sleep may be due to tension or so and get up faster.
but now i am a mom and stay at home but i had to get up a little early around 7.00 am to make breakfast to my husband and also pack his lunch. and sometimes in weekends we sleep for long and get up late.
i know getting up early morning is a bit difficult but if you are a student then i think you need to be serious enough about your studies and get up early and start studying. so good luck and study well.

I sleep around 12midnight most of the night at night. due to overtime in photograpy and videography. I woke up around 4:00am when there's a church service and if there's none..6:00am in the morning is good enough for me. I drink a lot of water when i sleep very late and woke up very early for me keep my body still looking healthy.

i had the habit of getting early since my early school days and i used to wake up at 6am and now when i am in the university i still have this habit and now since the load of studying is far greater i usually sleep late at night like 12am or 1 am and sometimes even late but i make it up early in the morning and it's natural to me now and mostly i wake up before the alarm(life line) goes and i switch it off.
it will take you some time to get used to it but don't lose hope!! early rising is a good habit and you be amazed by the nature at that time. good luck

I am and always have been a night owl.
If I get more than 5 hours of sleep I am way over tired.
I am my fathers caregiver and stay at home taking care of him.
My wife works and she does breakfast for him.
So this means I sleep in later than usual.
I get to bed about 4 or so in the morning.
Then I am up by 9 most times.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Hi there hmkoct5!
I sleep late because of a lot of activities that I have to do in the evenings. I spend a considerable amount of time preparing for my lectures for the next day. After working on those lectures, I do my usual myLot activities for a few minutes before I go to sleep. I sleep late and wake up early in the morning because I need to go to work early. Sometimes, I would sleep at around 1am and wake up at around 6am. Then I would just take a nap after lunch. Around 30 minutes to an hour would be great!

It really depends on the day. During the week I work so I have to be awake by 6:30am. On the weekends though I loooved sleeping in. I am a big sleeper! lol. I will sleep in until about 10-10:30. If I can. Most of the time I get woken up and cannot go back to sleep which is really frustrating! lol.

I get up whenever I feel like it. You see I'm a night person. So I often don't get to bed until after midnight. Like last night, I was up til 1AM, so I didn't get up this morning until 930. I guess its the one plus to being home all the time. LOL

I normally sleep at 12:00 AM and wake up at 7 or 7:30AM. U shud have a sound peaceful sleep. Get up when u feel like after all we just have one life to live. Guess u'd stay awake late nights and that's d reason u r not able to wake up earlier. If u really want to wake up early u go to bed a bit early,if not use some 10 alarm clock beside ur bed :D Keep smiling :)
