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.
Yes, it seems to us that lots of students like to stay up late. But… we’re not sure if that’s because they’re night owls or just because they have left their homework until the last minute! 😂😂😂

The way you just explained was awesome!! 😍
Before I don’t have a job,I was a night owl. I usually gets up late and I slept again after I have my lunch and then I wake up at evening so I can’t sleep at night because I slept the whole day 😂

Thanks a lot. It is fine that you took only 3 words. I think I will be to know these words next my life.
Thanks guys!
Really helps to improve vocabulary
Being a student,I,m never a night owl
Person, but during exam time I become a night owl. Although I’m a early morning guy, I love morning vibes, doing exercise is my fondness.I have a chronic disease because of that I do yoga everyday day in the morning.
Thank you so much
