Hi, meet my 3 night owls. Fortnite, Youtube, and sleep. by Seth - January 2019 Scholarship Essay

I am most definitely a night owl. I am most productive at this time because I am able to take my mind off any of my stressful issues. Normally when it is not my "night owl hours" I am stressed the whole day, but once these hours come all the stress goes away. I like to stay up late, eat cereal and watch my favorite YouTube videos or movies. Night time is my time to be myself. My parents are asleep, my siblings are in their rooms doing whatever they do, and it's just me and my living room. I'll kick back, relax, put my feet up and play video games, or watch something for about 2 hours ish. My normal routine, assuming I am on school break or the weekend, is come downstairs from my room at about 10:30pm. Hop on Fortnite with the boys play till about 12:30am, then watch Youtube videos and scrunch some cereal till about 1am, then go to sleep.

10:30pm Fortnite. Ah, Fortnite where would I be without you. Any time I need to get my mind off things you're always there for me. Any time I am going to cry, you're there for me. Any time I need a break from social media, you're there for me. Especially at night. The first thing I normally do during my "night owl hours" is play Fortnite. I'll hop on, and then me and the boys will play till about 12:30am. Imagine having a super stressful day, coming home to all your friends playing and waiting for you to get on. It's a great past time for me, a long with 40 million other people. Once my Fortnite binge is over, i'll go watch videos about fantasy football, just football videos in general, or my favorite streamers that stream Fortnite, while eating a bowl of Rice Krispie cereal with a little bit of sugar. Yes I know what you are thinking. Man Seth, why so much Fortnite bro? My answer is that once you play you will understand. Finally to end my "night owl hours." I go to my room read myself a quick bedtime st... I'm kidding, I turn on my night light. Immediately after, I get in bed turn off all the other lights, besides my night light of course, turn my fan on, and fall asleep. Hmmm.. what a great night right? (I don't use a night light either). Haha gotcha!

In conclusion, I am totally a night owl person thanks to Fortnite, my phone, and Rice Krispies. I am also the most productive at this time because I can block out all my stress. I am sure that as I grow older and my love and connection to Fortnite and my phone dies down I will become more of a morning person just like my parents. But until then, I will play Fortnite, watch videos, and eat cereal whenever I want. Good night America.

Sincerely,
Seth Yancey.
