Dear Poll: Are You a Morning Person?

April 18, 2008

Though I occasionally have to hit the snooze button, I’m pretty good about getting up in the morning. I love having a few minutes to myself before I start getting ready to clear my mind and enjoy that perfect morning sunshine. But for some people, there's just nothing enjoyable about early morning, except sleeping! Which category do you fall under?

I clicked neither, but I like to think of it as more of both. I can stay up super late but I also don't have problems with mornings. As long as I get my sleep. So if I'm up late there's no way I'm getting up early and the morning will be rough, but if I'm in bed at a decent time and get enough sleep I have no problems with mornings.

I don't particularly like mornings but when my alarm goes off I can usually just get up and go. I also stay up late often. lol I don't know what I am!

Yes I am......I love the mornings! It's the only time of the day where i have some quality alone time before everyone else gets up.

I loathe mornings, and am probably the most anti-morning person that I know. I'm a total night owl and even though its a waste, if I don't have to work I wont drag myself out of bed until midday at the earliest.

Other: I'm not usually a morning person however if I have a Starbucks Iced Coffee or make a green tea, then I can wake up and be a morning person.

I am so definitely not a morning person. I hit my snooze button at least twice every morning.

Definitely not. I like being up until the morning if that counts.

I'm definetly a night person. Most mornings I wont even talk til I've been up for an hour or two. I'm just slow to get going I guess.

I like to say that I am an afternoon person. I am not a morning person and I crash at 10p. My puppies wake me up at about 7:30a every morning even if I don't have to go to work. I am pregnant now so I don't think that things are gonna be any easier. ;-) I'll adjust, I hope...lol...

I'm a little bit of both, depends on the day.

I wish I could be a morning person sometimes, but it's just not in me. I'm a definite night owl!! I'm still up at 3 AM!

I enjoy sleeping, but it's really rare for me to fall asleep before midnight. If I was having a slumber party or hanging out with friends, it's possible for me to stay awake for over 48 hours. That said, I'm in college, which means I have ample opportunity to take three naps a day.

I'm both a morning person, and a night person.

I have to be a morning person one weekdays. Hehe. Weekends, I tend to sleep in until 9am or 10. I sleep on average 7-8 hours daily.

I have a 25/26 hour body clock too. It's always easy for me to stay up late but I can't fall asleep early. I feel like I have a permanent case of jet lag, except for when I actually AM jet-lagged. I love traveling because it's the only time I can easily function on a normal schedule -- the bigger the time difference, the better I feel. The rest of the time I feel like a zombie, and about once a month I have to stay up for an extra 8 to 12 hours in order to reset my internal clock.

I'm not a morning person at all. My class on Tuesdays and Thursdays starts at ten a.m. My other classes on Mondays and Wednesdays starts at noon.

i have a circadian rhythm disorder. i basically have a 25-26 hour body clock instead of the usual 24 hour body clock most people have, so my sleep schedule shifts one hour later if i'm not careful with my sleep hygiene. i suppose i have more of a tendency of being a night owl, but am so happy when i can be awake in the morning. i've had "days" where i fall asleep and wake up in the dark. also, being awake when everyone else is sleeping can be very lonely and depressing.

Yes, generally I am a morning person. I've honestly never used the snooze button in my life! I just get up when my alarm goes off...I'm not going to escape anything by sleeping for an extra ten minutes.
