The stereotype of college students being nocturnal was always one that I refused to defy. Being on a college campus and having roommates tends to keep us up late, with dorms and common rooms, there is not a lot of hope for going to sleep early. Yet here is the misconception. I have every intention of going to bed early. I would trade my dancing shoes and party dress for a pair of slippers and pajamas any day at anytime. And I try but, mostly I fail.
Now, it is summer. Now, I have a job. Now, I have people relying on me to be up early and be aware of what is actually happening. We do not tolerate the zombie college students at our place of employment, rather the enthusiastic, excited ones that aren't sluggish throughout the day.
It is something that I enjoy actually. Rising early with my parents, snagging a cup of coffee and driving to work with the windows down, smelling like sunscreen, and listening to my loud music. But it starts my day with a bang rather than a sizzle. Gives purpose.
I am a college student who loves to wake up early. Call me crazy, but nothing is better than actually living my day, than sleeping it away.
Rise and Shine.
