Ever since summer started- I've been sleeping in until at least noon everyday and going to bed at like 1am. I'm really sick of doing this. I always feel like I'm wasting my day when I do this. Its really annoying and I would just like to know if you had any ideas on how to get up earlier and how to possibly make myself go to bed earlier.
Thanks, Laura, I know you always give good advice!

Well, what I would do it gradually start going to sleep earlier and earlier. Rather than 1 o clock, tonight go to bed at 12:30. Then tommorow try 12:00, then the next day 11:30 and so forth until you go to bed at the time you're aiming for. Gradually increase because your body needs to adjust to the time changes.
Then, start waking up earlier. You really only need 8-9 hours of sleep a night, but some people (like myself) prefer more. This is fine unless you're getting around 13-14-15ish hours, which can cause your body to get really tired then really hyper and go all out of whack. Trust me, it's not fun.
Fall into a routine once you've started going to bed at your ideal time. Every night go to bed at the same time, and wake up at the same time. Your body should get used to it. Then hopefully, you won't feel like you're wasting your days.
Good Luck! =]

EDIT:
I'm so glad it worked! =D
And thanks for the compliment, but I actually don't have a boyfriend at the moment. I think I'd be lucky to have a guy like you, too =]
EDIT *AGAIN:
I don't know why I don't have a boyfriend...
Anyways, thanks again for reading my advice and checking out my taste in music ;] [ LOL_x0x's advice column | Ask LOL_x0x A Question ]
