22 Things Only Night Owls Know

1) You’re supposedly more intelligent (don’t hate me for saying that, it’s backed by science), but you definitely don’t feel it when you wake up in the morning after staying up until 4am again.

2) Because getting up in the morning isn’t just difficult for you, it’s actual hell.

3) And, you REALLY hate anyone who is remotely cheerful before 10:00am.

11) Sometimes it feels as though this whole 9-5 crap only exists to torture you. And you don’t understand why nobody else at work seems to hate it as much as you do.

13) But it’s not all bad. As well as more intelligent, science also says you’re more creative.

14) Probably because they’re fewer people around to annoy you while you’re creating your latest masterpiece during the night.

16) Probably while enjoying midnight snacks.

17) Still, proving to everyone else that you’re talented is immensely difficult, because normal people only see you as the clumsy gimp who can’t make it to work on time or function properly throughout the day.

18) But everyone loves you when it’s time to hit the bar, because it’s pretty much guranteed you’ll be the last one standing at the end of night.

21) Still, you wouldn’t change your body clock, because being a night owl is like being a part of a secret club that only the best people are in.

22) After all, Obama is reportedly night owl. And if he can run a whole country on a few hours sleep, why can’t the rest of us?
