It's blatantly obvious what the result of this poll will be but my hypothesis may be incorrect, although the likelihood is extremely low. This idea for a poll popped into my head much earlier today (about 12 hours ago).
When do you perfer to go to sleep, early or late? This poll is staged during a breaktime from either school or work seeing as I don't stay up as late during schoolnights; it feels odd.
Late = any time past 3a
Early = any time before 12p
Everyone who's been at GN late should know what my vote is.

if i didn't have school and parents then i would always be awake at night. i'm naturally a night person in a house of day people so i really don't have a choice. i'm always in bed before 10 p.m.

well.... I'm sure 12pm is supposed to mean midnight but 12pm is noon.... but anyway I like going to bed at 6am or so waking up around 3pm... those were the days more recently I go to bed between 12:30 and 1am

Usually, it's about 4am (EST) for me. I've been trying a little earlier, but with 3 roomates who don't believe in sleep, it's hard sometimes.

@Troa34: Darn, I always confuse the two, could someone with moderator priveleges edit the poll. Thanks.

I did that a few times last year as well... stayed up until 3p or so, about ready to fall over after getting off the computer, and slept in until 10p or so. Right now my family lives with our grandparents who are always walking about during the night, which actually annoys me a little, I wish they'd just stay in bed, but that's how old people are.

If my grandma found me up that late she'd probably have a heart attack. Most everyone in my family goes to sleep fairly early (at least by my standards). My dad used to stay up 3 nights straight when he was working at IBM, he occasionally imagined someone else was in the room with him... spooky.

I like to sleep late...It just feels natural to me...I mean...Just today I slept at 9:00AM...And woke up now...It's almost 2:00pm...I would sleep longer but I gotta go out.
But there are streaks where I sleep really early or have a fairly normal sleep schedule. During those streaks I feel I can get the most done seeing as to how I am awake during normal hours...But I don't do anything so sleeping late makes me feel better because it doesn't feel like I am wasting as much time in front of the computer or the GameCube.

I usually sleep rather late. I'm not sleepy by 4 am. I also sleep between 3-6 hours regularly so i sleep little even if i go to bed late. Now lately ive been going to bed earlier but coz of college coz i have to get up 6:30 am to get to college by 9 am.

A lot of this depends upon whether or not you have something you enjoy doing. If you're completely bored all the time it's likely you'll just want to go to bed.

i would agree to that cept that I always find that I have nothing to do (save work now) and i still dun go to bed. Coz bed is just no fun, worse than being bored, and i dun rest much anyway so....i dunno

My sentiments exactly... sleeping is a dreadful waste of time. A millisecond is equal to 5 hours or so blech, I could be doing other things like working on my computer.

I would have to say approximately 3:30 when not during school EX:weekends vacations etc, I ussually find myself in bed arround 11:30PM when I have school if I got to sleep at all, PS Emilly how do you survive going to sleep never after 10? that's insanity

I said in bed. Not asleep. I normally listen to an album or two and then just lay there for a while. Quite boring in itself, but it's better than getting grounded for roaming around the house at night.

Back when I had school at 7am, I usually went to bed about 11pm. Even then I was a night-goer, and on Friday nights I'd be up untill 2am or later. Friday's were my longest days; Getting up at 7am for school, coming home, then going to work, then staying up most of the night

I'm waiting for an invention which will allow people to sleep only when wanted. Kind of like a robot. With me that would probably be never but for others it would be the same as always.

what i want would be a machien that say puts u to sleep for 5 minutes but makes u feel like u slept for 12 hours so all u need is 5 minutes

Feb 18 2004, 01:17 AM
Yes that would be ideal; clearly better thought out than mine.

Oh my, I would do that several times in a row just for that just got up after a really long sleep feeling which I rather like it would eliminate laying there in bed and dosing off/ not wanting to wake up state

It really varies with me. I love the night. I think it's the best part of the 24hours that we are given. However, during the week I like to get some sleep so that I can stay awake during my classes. I've failed miserably thus far. Not the going to bed part, but the part about staying awake in class.
