I have noticed something deeply suspicious about adult calendars. They are extremely full. There are meetings, deadlines, calls, errands and the mysterious category known as “follow-up.” From 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., the calendar looks like a highly organized game of Tetris where responsibility always wins. But if […]
Are you more of a night or morning person? I have spent my whole adult life proudly identifying as a morning person. Capital M, capital P. One of those people who pops up at 5 a.m. like a caffeinated meerkat. I cook breakfast. I answer emails. I’m on […]
At night, I flick on my little red lamp. Not because I’m running a secret photography darkroom. Not because I’m signaling passing ships. And no, it’s not because I’ve suddenly decided to become the neighborhood’s “woman of intrigue.” It’s because that red glow does something to me. It […]
Apparently, in Norway, not only are the fjords majestic, but the citizens also possess superpowers like the ability to sleep through a 500-foot container ship crash-landing on their front lawn. Yes, Johan Helberg of Byneset woke up not because of the world’s loudest alarm clock, but because a […]
Most mornings, I wake up with my dreams fully intact, vivid and in technicolor, like I’m the director of my own nightly soap opera. I’m usually a lucid dreamer, aware of my dreamland shenanigans, able to remember all the random details like the rogue penguin that showed up […]

Are you more of a night or morning person? Ever since I can remember, I’ve been a morning person. The kind of person who wakes up at dawn (or even before) without an alarm clock. As a child, I was that rare breed of kid that actually enjoyed […]
It’s past midnight, and here I am, eyes glued to the glow of my phone, scrolling through Twitter like it’s the key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe. Spoiler alert: it’s not. Instead, I’m bombarded with cat videos, political rants, and that one guy live-tweeting his epic […]
Ah, the dance with insomnia, where sleep tiptoes around like a shy suitor, forever just out of reach. My mind, a carnival of chaos, with thoughts racing like Olympic sprinters and dreams haunted by AI-built skyscrapers plotting their sinister takeover. Sleep, that elusive temptress, flirts with me from […]
Are you more of a night or morning person? Hello from the peculiar realm of sleep schedules and circadian shapeshifting, where dawn and dusk are but mere suggestions. Picture this: the early bird diligently tapping away at emails and texts at the unholy hour of 8 am. Simultaneously, […]
