14 Things That Happen When You Aren't a Morning Person

I've always wanted to be a morning person, I really have, but it's just very hard for me. Waking up early is not my cup of tea, and will even put me in a bad mood for a long period of the day. No matter when I go to sleep, waking up early is a challenge. Talk about 7 a.m. college classes...those will kill you. Eventually, I hope to be able to rise at the brink of dawn and feel good doing it, but today is not that day.

1. Coffee is a must in the morning.

Not just one cup, but probably two or three. Without it you can barely keep your eyes open.

2. Anytime before 10 a.m. is not fun.

'

Those few hours in the early morning make you question why you even got out of bed to begin with.

3. Don't talk to me in the morning.

Please don't especially try to have a full blown conversation with me in the morning. I probably won't be listening and I will have nothing to say back because I'm technically still asleep.

4. Don't even look at me in the morning.

I'm not the most friendly before noon...I'm going to be real honest here.

5. It takes me 2-3 hours to fully wake up.

You can't wake up and feel energetic the second you get out of bed. It takes you a while, usually a few hours, before you feel completely ready and (awake enough) to take on your day.

6. You ask work to not schedule you before 10.

Work is not always the most fun, and neither are mornings. Paring them both together is not always the best combination. Your bosses or managers may even know you hate mornings and purposefully not schedule you.

7. You hate simply hearing "good morning."

I don't like hearing those words. Because, what's "good" about the morning? Nothing.

8. You have to set alarms to be up at a certain time.

While other people's bodies wake them up at a decent time, you have to set alarms in order to wake up. You probably set a few, and maybe hit snooze a few times as well.

9. You lay in bed for a while after waking up.

After waking up, you have to lay in bed for a while before forcing yourself out of your warm blankets and into the real world. It's difficult, I know.

10. You often have people laugh when you say 9 a.m. is early.

And you're often really confused at why they don't think it is.

11. You avoid scheduling morning college classes.

Getting finished with your full day of classes earlier is nice with morning classes...but is it really worth missing your beauty sleep for?

12. You'll skip looking good for getting more sleep.

I always plan the night before to wake up early and do my hair, makeup, and to pick out a cute outfit for the day. This plan never falls through...ever.

13. You don't speak much in the morning.

I always get the usual, "what's wrong with you today?" Nothing is ever wrong, but mornings are not for conversation. It's not that you hate all people, it's just that your brain is still waking up.

14. If someone wakes you up, they're doomed.

Please never wake me up screaming "rise and shine" especially. You will not be on my good side.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
