Hello !

A girl who leads a virtual and philosophical life.
She has a wise goat in her brain who takes a walk in a new quadrant of the globe everyday .
When back home from its grazing path it shares her heart with the girl whom she confides in.
The girl listens to her , gets poetic sometimes.
Someday she feels rather very informed when she gets to know about the technological advances.
Sometimes lands herself in a jigsaw situation.
Sometimes she is rather bewildered yet confident.
Spriritual sometimes , rather emotional sometimes!

Early birdies v/s night owls

Took this from medical daily
Our sleep habits are genetic and can put night owls and early birds at a disadvantage. Night owls experience what scientists have dubbed as “social jetlag.” This refers to lagging behind in time during the early hours of the day, and the toll it has on a night owl’s work and social life. Meanwhile, "Early birds tend to display more positive social traits, such as being proactive and optimistic, and are less prone to depression or addictions to nicotine, alcohol, and food," Moffitt says.

These traits are actually seen in the brain, particularly in white matter. Although night owls exhibit significantly less white matter in their brains, they make up for it in cortisol levels. This stress hormone gets the body prepared to face immediate threats, which gives night owls more opportunities, and even more financial gain. “[T]hey tend to be much more creative, have been found to have higher cognitive abilities, and are known to be risk-takers,” Moffitt said

So in the battle over bedtime, does both the early bird and the night owl both get the worm? The short answer is yes. The trick is to find your peak performance times. 

Yawn
