  • - Night owls like myself, we're just

  • full of vodka and like nachos or something.

  • (upbeat string music) (wolf howling)

  • - I usually go to bed maybe around one every night.

  • - Between like 12 and two.

  • - Anywhere between 12 and 3am.

  • - I wake up for work as late as I possibly can

  • to still get there on time and in one piece.

  • - I hit snooze five or six times

  • before getting up in the morning.

  • - I desperately want to be a morning person.

  • - I love the idea of people getting up,

  • like walking their dogs, and like being healthy,

  • and eating granola and yogurt.

  • - I could be a much more productive person

  • if I utilized those morning hours.

  • - I'm about to wake up early as (bleep),

  • and I'm really excited but nervous

  • that I won't be able to do it.

  • (upbeat music)

  • - [Voiceover] Hey, Kelsey.

  • - Hey, what's up?

  • - I do. I get up around 3:30 every day.

  • - I power lift and I prefer to train

  • in the morning as opposed to the evening.

  • Honestly, it's a better, like more healthy way of living.

  • I have more time in the day.

  • I can get more stuff done.

  • I'm not as rushed, and honestly

  • our ancestors lived that way.

  • They woke up with the sun and went to bed with the sun,

  • so for me, it's the more natural way of living.

  • - Yeah, I would love to help some night owls wake up early.

  • Rule number one is--

  • - No!

  • - Oh! (laughs)

  • - Monday through Friday, you need

  • to be up by 5am.

  • Saturday and Sunday, I would prefer

  • if you were up by eight o'clock.

  • Rule number two, with your extra time in the morning

  • do something that you

  • love to do, that you don't normally

  • have time to do.

  • - Like walking my dog.

  • - Cook a serious breakfast maybe.

  • Number three is, this is Sunday night

  • through Thursday night, you need

  • to be in bed between nine and 11.

  • Friday and Saturday night, 10pm to 1am,

  • because I know people like to go out.

  • - I'm gonna have no life!

  • Nothing gets started until ten.

  • - Ok. Let's get into it!

  • - Let's do it, guys!

  • - I think you guys can do it.

  • I think you'll surprise yourself

  • in another two weeks.

  • - Let's go! Whoo! - Whoo!

  • - I'm going to bed way later than I wanted to,

  • but the night just kind of got away from me.

  • - My goal is to wake up tomorrow

  • and work out before work.

  • I'm optimistic. I'm excited.

  • I hope that I can do this.

  • - I failed my first night.

  • Today we'll do better though.

  • I'm like a mess in the morning, holy shit!

  • - Actually I don't feel that tired.

  • Upon a very short conversation with my boyfriend,

  • I realized I'm in a really bad mood! (laughs)

  • I am just incapable of communicating

  • properly with other humans.

  • - I had time for a little bit of stretching in yoga,

  • and I'm also gonna have time to do my hair.

  • (car alarm blaring)

  • - It's 10am on a Saturday.

  • Much too early for me,

  • so we headed to Starbucks

  • for some much-needed caffeine

  • and I'm so cranky about it!

  • - So, I'm at work. Sleepy as fuck.

  • Basically, I've been failing, as of lately.

  • Well, no.

  • The weekend I woke up really early.

  • - So, we're supposed to get up super early

  • for our breakfast tomorrow, but I'm exhausted.

  • We'll see how it goes.

  • I mean, I have to do it.

  • It will be the worst thing ever

  • if I somehow don't make it.

  • - I am absolutely miserable.

  • - You're such a drama queen.

  • - No one is up this early!

  • - Look, there are plenty of people out.

  • - There are four people here.

  • - I'm actually doing chores before the sun's out!

  • What!

  • - I just realized that the new episode

  • of Scream Queens is on Hulu,

  • so I'm actually gonna try to catch

  • a little bit of it, pour myself a tiny glass of wine,

  • even though the rules say I shouldn't.

  • I wanted to be just like my friends on Instagram,

  • and I failed miserably.

  • - I have been getting up earlier,

  • so in the mornings I'm more relaxed.

  • It's a better start to the day,

  • and I just feel like I'm in a better mood.

  • - The first week I definitely noticed

  • that my body would be up, but my brain

  • wouldn't be up with me at the same time.

  • Waking up and doing something physical

  • and centering, like yoga, definitely helped

  • me get both of my halves started with the day.

  • - I enjoy my night life so much,

  • and the fact that conversations

  • would just be getting good at like 11

  • and I was already late to bed

  • was kind of a weird thing.

  • - I definitely think that people who consider

  • themselves night owls should try waking up earlier.

  • Maybe even just by like an hour or so.

  • It feels really good to not be rushed in the morning.

  • - I'd really like to make this like a legit life change.

  • Where I actually become a real morning person.

  • - Ugh. Goodbye night life.

  • It's been nice knowing you.

  • I'm gonna start hanging out

  • with morning moms now.

  • (upbeat music)

- Night owls like myself, we're just
