Good Luck to my Husband

I have always found it hard to get up early in the morning and have been advised by my mom, dad, sis, bro and now my husband to try and sleep early so that I can get up on time. I used to look at people surprisingly when they say that they get up at 4:00 AM during their exams. Man! I just couldn't do it. I have tried getting up at 5:00 AM or even 6:00 AM and study but it has always turned out to be a bad idea. I can stay awake till 2:00 AM in the morning and study and then go to sleep and get up at 7:00 AM and just get ready and sit for the exam. For some reason I find it difficult to sleep at 9:00 PM and get up at 5:00 AM and study. It does not matter if this alternative still provides me 9 hours of sleep. though you get your usual eight hour sleep. Though everybody says that your mind will be fresh early morning, I have always felt sleepy and not fresh. Infact, I feel I can concentrate more only at nights after every body goes to sleep when the house is silent and there are no distractions and disturbances. The main reason why this is appealing is because you don't feel as if you have woken up in the middle your sleep.

My college used to start at 7:30 AM and my parents were specific that I should join this college. It was a conspiracy to ensure that I'll not have the option of getting up late. I remember my struggles to get up at 6:30. My mom was supposed to wake me up at 6:45 and I'd beg for the usual grace time of 2 more minutes, which she knows will strech up to 5 minutes. Eventually, I'd get up with at 6:50 AM - whinging and groggy. I'll get ready by 7:17 and by then my Dad would be ready to drop me in the bus stop for the 7:20, 17E bus. If I missed that bus my Dad had to drop me in the college and that meant the poor guy would be late for work.

And would you believe my luck? My husband is a person who gets up at 5 or 6 in the morning and he is now trying to get me to do it. I just wish him good luck and hope he succeeds..After all its suppossed to be good for me isn't it?
