    Do you rely on an alarm clock to get you out of bed on time?

    Do you hit the snooze button multiple times before actually getting out of bed? Maybe you jump out of bed as soon as the alarm goes off? Does your alarm wake you up with noises or music?


    I use my mobile phone as my alarm clock, and yeah l do hit the snooze button everymorning. Try to get up at 7am, usually sleep in to 9am if l'm not working..:H

    I have two alarm clocks. The first I set to wake me up a half hour before I really need to wake up. The other I set when I need to get up for work.

    The first alarm clock is great. I'll wake up immediatly and know what woke me up, pick it up , set it a half hour later in sequence with the other alarm clock, and since I woke up and know getting up for work is only a half an hour away I dose off and on until they both go off. By the time they both go off the annoying sound of two alarm clocks going off at the same time makes me jump out of my bed.

    I have to get up around 6am everyday so I have to set the alarm. I get up as soon as it goes off. I'm not a fan of the snooze button. If I hit it, I will be just falling back asleep when it goes off and just pisses me off even more.

    i have two alarm clocks... I can never get up when I intend to. the first one is set so i have up to an hour to hit the snooze button before I get my lazy ass out of bed. the second is more like "get up now or you won't have time for coffee" type of an alarm... it's quieter, but a different noise so it wakes me up too. I wish I could just wake up when my alarm goes off hte first time, but I get out of my bed and hit the snooze button, crawl back into bed and pull my blankets up without even waking up.
