Do you Prefer to Sleep More or Be Awake More?

I don't think I have insomnia but my brain is always more alive during the afternoon until evening. Somehow I prefer to be awake more than sleeping. I get to do more things when I am awake that sometimes I force myself to stay up later than I should.
This of course is not good for my health. Not sleeping or sleeping too little affects the brain and the body in a bad way. I've known about that for 2 years but I still stubbornly sleep in the morning instead of at night or sleep so late in the day. 
Last year I even had two jobs that I was sleeping too little! 
Need to break this bad habit... 
So how about you? Do you prefer to sleep more or do you like being awake more?

I have been having horrible sleep lately. I fall asleep and sometimes I feel as if I were sleeping for hours and come to find out it was only like an hour. And at night, if I get six hours sleep I get a lot. I need to get my body back into a normal regimen.

Last year, sleep was my least priority everyday. But after my asymptomatic hypertension last year that the doctor said it might be because of my lack of sleep because all test result were normal except for my elevated BP even during inactivity. Then I try to sleep mooooorre

Given the option I would sleep more. I am going to bed now myself as I have been struggling to stay awake all day.

Nice. Regular schedule is good. So you don't prefer anything eh? Either being awake or sleeping is fine?

@owstalaga I do not sleep more than 8 hours per day, this is my rule and I feel well following this rule.

I would love to be awake more but I also need to sleep more. I guess it should be well balanced for us to not get sick.

Ah yes. If I could make it balanced, I would be happy.

Yes. I wonder why we are like this. We like to be awake at night...
