Answers:

Hello,

What you are referring to here is the Circadian Rhythms. This is your body's internal "clock". It consists of a 24-hour cycle. While they are typically internally controlled, outside influences such as sunlight and temperature can have an affect on them. Everyone's is unique and that is why some people are morning people, and some are night owls. And YES, you can be a midday person!!! Even animals have circadian rhythms. This is why birds wake early in the morning. This is why racoons become active at night. Personally, I have been all three at one point in my life. But I am mostly like you... a midday person. I perform and feel my best when I can sleep in until 9 or 10 and go to sleep around 2 or 3 am. Some examples of this biological clock are evident in people with Jet lag who cross across the time zones as well as shift workers who can not sleep during the day.

Check out this link.... it explains the whole thing really well...
