本期话题

Topic:Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Elena: Hello, this is Elena from Bulgaria.

Diego: I'm Diego from Mexico.

Elena: For elllo.org. Today's question is are you an early bird or a night owl?

Diego: I guess that's a really easy question to answer for me. I am definitely, definitely not an early bird. I can't function in the morning. I always wake up and I'm always like where's the coffee? Yeah, I don't know why. There's a lot of people who are really active and you know awake in the morning, but for me it always takes ten, twenty minutes to wake up and hours to finally function. But then at night, you know I can just do my homework, study so much, do all the work that I need to get done and I get so concentrated and so active and I feel so energized at night. So to answer your question I would say I'm definitely a night owl.

Elena: OK. Well I don't know, for me I've found that I'm pretty productive in the morning so if I want to get any work done I have to get up and do it in the morning because by the afternoon, I just want to slack off and go meet my friends and have fun and I get sleepy really early.

Diego: OK. So you're an early bird and I'm a late night owl.
