I'm so tired my tired is tired.

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

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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
