Morning Person

I googled "morning person" hoping to find a definition/ article that would quickly and succinctly answer my question, but there isn't one...not even a wikipedia article!  the only articles are about whether you ARE a morning person, "take this 10 question quiz!"  or how to become a morning person "10 easy steps!"  This is not what I want to know.  What I want to know is:  does being a morning person only mean that you like to/ can wake up early in the morning?  (the common understanding) OR can it also mean, when you wake up in the morning, you are focused and energized?

This comes from something I have noticed about myself this semester.  When I wake up, which I will admit has become a disturbing 7:30/ 8:00 even on a Saturday (note specifically today...) I am energized, ambitious, focused.  The list of things I need/want to do rushes through my head, I'm undaunted, I'm excited.

One possible theory for this is that nothing has happened, there has been no interference yet, nothing to unfocus me.  My mind is clear.  I say this specifically related to studying.  For example, this morning I woke up wanting, repeat: WANTING to read Civ Pro.  I want to get on it.  Knock it out.  

So, maybe this has nothing to do with being a morning "person" and has more to do with the nature of the morning.  

(last night's painting went well-ish.  I fixed the background of a thing, worked on the face of that one...and I like all that.  I did a small thing/ portrait thingy that I have issue with.  i may change it.  One thing I have noticed...i paint younger people...i don't paint old faces...it makes sense, but I would like to paint old faces, they have so much character.  Young faces are without wrinkles and sags.  But I find that I paint the stress, guilt, pain into these young faces, which may be part of the statement/ message I want to make.)

love to all today
