Since I was little, I was always the first one awake... wherever I was. At sleepovers, I would usually find myself roaming around my friends' houses until somebody finally woke up. At camps and summer programs, I would roam around the surrounding area, exploring the silence around me. At college, I'm finding that I wake up even earlier because my schedule is exactly as I'd like it and permits me to go to bed embarrassingly early. If you are an early-bird, there's a good chance you're also into getting stuff done. You can only sit around waiting for the rest of the world to wake up for so long. Here are 12 feelings that only early-birds understand:
1. When you have to say goodbye at parties because it's past your bedtime.
2. When you're trying to fall asleep, but the rest of the world is still awake (and making noise).
3. When you wake up and get to take a nice, long shower because nobody else is up and/or bothering you4. When you eat a lot of homemade breakfasts because nothing is open yet.5. When you realize that you have so much time before anybody else will be up.
6. So you decide to be productive and use the time to take care of some chores.
7. But when you get there, you realize that most places don't open until 9...
8. When you get frustrated and feel like you're all alone in a world full of sleepers.
9. When you realize that you have the time to literally do all your laundry, homework and cleaning for the next week.
10. When you get to be so productive because there are no people distracting you since it's still obscenely early.11. When you realize that all your friends are just getting to bed and that you've just carpe diem-ed so hard.12. When you already feel satisfied with your day before it has started because you've accomplished so much
So if you're not an early-bird now, you should definitely consider the perks!!
