From my experience in school, most students are night owls. I’m the opposite. I love waking up at the crack of dawn and commuting as early as possible. Early in the morning, the landscapes are amazing. In my country, nights are a bit dangerous and you’re prone to be robbed and suffer chronic injuries. I’d better live in peace.
For me it’s not bc I don’t complete my homework until the last minute rather I study at day time also I study till 3 or 4am daily bc of immense study pressure. I go to uni at 11 am as class starts at 11.20am and come back home at 2.30pm and for Tuesday at 4.10pm and after coming back I take my meal and take a nap for 1 hour or sometimes a little more then I get up, drink a cup of ginger tea and start studying. That’s how my daily life is passing when most of my friends are hanging out with friends, eating outside and doing fun stuffs. Still I feel like I’m not doing enough. If I fall asleep for a little longer I start to panic also almost everyday I have nightmare that I’m not not being able to answer a single question in exam😔
😂
Which country are you based in that you refer to? Nothing in your bio.
@Nini well i think you could likely be overpressure if you keep continous pushing yourseft too hard like that. Maybe a little relax like watch a new movie or hangout after finish homework will help, goodluck!
@hung lai thanks 😌
I’d like to sleep early. But plan is pretty easier than acting. Right now it’s 2:51PM in Korea. I should get a sleep. and unfortunately it’s so hard to get a sleep when I decide to do it.
I think late nights is prone to break routine of the day. Usually people have their own routine in a day, which is usually decided by society. From the past, people get up early because of the sun, which was the only light in the world. And until now, society follow this rules. So, the point is that late nights is harmful.
It’s incredible, I thought a knew these words but I find myself learning them again. Great video!
Hai im Indonesian, and i’v just known this channel is very helpful to learning English like me, im studying English and the important informations as well, thanks a lot,
I’ve been night owls for a long time. Recently, I start going to bed early because I realize the effect of chronic disease, and that is more prone to negative health.
Wrong. There’s no evidence to support “chronic disease” relating to being a night owl.
I am actually a night owl. I can stay late at night or sleep late at night but I can’t get up early. Even though I sleep early at night, it is so hard for me to get up early in the morning. I prefer studying or working at night rather than in the morning because I’m not active in the morning and my brain doesn’t work well😆.
I’m a night owl. I always stay up until midnight to do homework.
i’m pretty sure that i am a night owl, i take this conclusion seeing that is 2 am and i am watching this video in my pause of the studies, but i am trying to get better, cause i don’t wanna be prone to get any disease, and probably sleep so late will bring me chronic consequences
Like from Ukraine
Because people who get up early burn more fat easier? That’s the difference?! Well that’s easily compensated: work out and eat right. Ta daaaaa!!
😂😂
When i used to a morning person,it forces me to sleep early at night.I already knew that i won’t get prone to chronic disease,but by and by i shifted my time of sleep to late nights in despair,then i started and were keen on watching series more and more and felt enthusiastic,and then whenever it is seen I’m fond of myself as a night owl. Irrespective of what i cannot go back to the time i were.Even though i tried so hard to get through because i was fed up with staying up late as a result, i started eating like a horse and drinking like a fish as well.
I’m used to be an ‘early bird to catch a train from Lucern to Zurich for work and gone to bed early at 9:30. After 26 years long working, I got a heart disease which doctors have been unable to find out. I have do not smoked nor have I drunk either. I have been very active guy since I was a child. Sometimes, I doubt about scientific research.
So I love to say “Donald Trump is prone to lying”. According to the news, Trump has been lied to the public more than 20 thousand times in his 4 year presidency, a record of modern human politic (Psychologist expert on an average person, people lie less than 7 times a day!
What happens if I stay up late in the night to learn English with BBC?
I love this new video format! Thank you!
