Polished transcript:

Male Female

Sometimes, when I'm feeling very tired and exhausted, I usually go to bed early, around 12 AM. I know that's technically midnight and not early, but for me, it's just my normal bedtime. However, once in a while, I stay up late if I have important work to finish or if it's a friend's birthday. Those are the times when I end up waking up late the next day.
