its saturday once again. meaning i can still lay down on my bed and hug my pillows tight! kick the worries away, dream of wonderful moments and wake up late. this is what i always do during weekends, specially on saturdays. more time for myself, time to rest & relax and think of nothing in particualr. shrug off all the problems for that week and enjoy a peaceful time with yourself. but i know this is not applicable to everybody else. we are all as different as our thumb marks on every paper and as different as any individuals with different nationality. i can always finds time to myself because as i can call it, i am still single but yes, not available. but whats questioning me is how and what are the things those married people do, specially on days like this? do they wake up early just to tend on their families needs or they are also like me. lets talk and just have fun knowing more and more of our differences and same responsibilities. thanks friend jhelai

I'm not a morning person, but I do tend to at least wake up by 8am on days where I don't have to be at work or school or volunteering. I usually still want to use to day to do something, so I want to make the most of it and wake up early.

I just don't understand my sleeping patterns over the past few nights! I have been waking up in the middle of the night and this morning I woke up about 3am and I stayed up messing around on the computer, I don't know why this is. Still, I'm kind of positive that I will have a better night's sleep tonight and that nothing will disturb me. Andrew

Yes. I hardly ever get enough sleep. Alot of times, I plan on sleeping in but I still get up early. I always have alot of things to get done daily, so time is in much need other than sleeping.

I am not a morning person so getting up early just does not appeal to me on a work day or on my day off. There are days when I just wake up and bound out of bed early but this is not regular. I am a late night person so i believe that attributes to my late mornings as well.

Yes, I use to wake up early, I like that way, because I feel better that way, I feel I have more energy, because our bodies are programmed in some way to recover more efficiently at night. they repair themselves better when they sleep at night, the skin also gets benefit for this. You are much more refreshed. That is regarding to health, but some days I want to watch a film, or do some other thing, and then the health is not my first objective, but to have fun. I tend not to be strict about health, because then we wouldn´t enjoy of the life.

You see, I love to sleep till late myself, but my hubby!!!!!! His latest is 6.30 and he needs his tea when he wakes up. I feel sorry for he is working everyday real hard and I also wake up to prepare his cup. He usually dont wake me up but I do on my own cos I feel sorry. Plus my kids on the other hand. They are used to waking up at 5.45 and latest they can sleep is till 6-6.30. So imagine my luck!

Hi jhelai, I like weekends as well as all the holidays as I don’t have to get up early. Yeah, I enjoy sleeping heartily during these off days without worrying all about the office work and the traffic jam I feel so relaxed and comfortable lying in my favorite bed with my pillow in the arms. I always feel reluctant to get up even though it’s nearly time to take lunch of course my husband and his elder sister have already taken their breakfast. Very often my husband and I will eat out during weekends. We usually would have fun hanging around the shopping mall or watch movie if there is any good film available. Happy posting and have a nice day!

Hello jhelaichie. I dont have school anymore nor do I have any work. I have my own business at home. I usually wake up at 8 am. Before I would wake up at 10:00. Thats very late right? Right now, I practice waking up early so, I have a lot to do during the morning.

Hi, same here. I just wake late if only at my day off. because the night before i am usually spend the night for watch movie, do internet thing etc. I the days tomorrow i should work, i have to go to bed around 9 pm and woke up at 5 am in the morning. I should try a good advice who tell me to have sleep 8 hour a day.

Well, I usually wake up early in the morning even if I have no work at all. There are a number of reasons behind this. First of all, I just can't sleep more than 8 hours because I feel pain in my back if I do so. Secondly, I feel an urge to go to toilet between 6-7 AM regularly. I suppose it's good habit and a sign of good health, too.

Hello jheLaichie , unfortunately I can wakeup early if I have no things for me to be doing on any day. Even when I am recovering from an illness I still manage to wake early. I have been a morning person ever since I can remember. My dad is also a morning person and I was born early in the morning and he was also born early in the morning.My sister was born late at night and my mother was born in the afternoon and those two are not morning people.My b/f is not a morning person and on his days off I let him sleep usually until 9:30 am and the day before he works again I wake him at least by 8:00 AM. I don't remember what time he was born, I did see his birth certificate but I put it away in the safe deposit box and he is not here right now so I can't ask him.

Well,i usually get up early in the hot season and late in the cold season if I don't have to work. You know,how well we can sleep in winter ,I just want to stay on my bed forever.lol But in summer like now,It is hard to sleep well,and there are always some mosquitoes bothering me,so I might as well get up early .

It depends upon the situation. If I'm very tired, I will sleep the whole day. Sometimes I wake early to browse the internet or watch videos. I like to do those things I can't do during busy days. Most importantly, we should have a good and enough sleep.

I hate when I do this! lol Several times I've woken up early thinking that I had to go to school, so I've gotten dressed and made my downstairs only to be told that it was Saturday (or Sunday, or a holiday, whatever the case might be). I'd be totally disoriented for the rest of the day.

Hi! I am a morning person, and sometimes I hate it.. Cause even if I sleep late, I still wake up really early, like just after 6am. It's sunday today, and I woke up at around 6am, event hough I only slept past midnight last night.. I have always been like this and I really don't know why. LOL. I get headache if I wake up late ( and by late, I mean like 8 in the morning. hehe. ) Have a great day ahead! Thank God coffee was discovered. LOL. =)
