How easy is it for you to wake up in the mornings...I always set the alarm n then i snooze it the minute it rings ....and always when it does ring thats the time i feel i need to sleep more and thats when i dont feel like waking up.....it would feel like i didnt have enough sleep and those morning times is when all the sleep in world comes to me ;) so i feel. well then u need to get up and start the day otherwise all your schedule for the day will turn topsy turvy....have u felt the same ...do u normally wake up at the first alarm or do u set the alarm at all to wake up.....what do u do???

Since I work at home now, by alarm clock isn't used much anymore. If I have to be up at a certain time though, I will use the alarm settings on my cell phone. You can set three different alarms with my phone, so I set them all about 5-10 minutes apart, with the last one being the time I absolutely have to get up! Then when the first and second ones goes off, I will dismiss them and lay back down. By the third and final one, I am usually ready to get up!

When I turn them off, it shows me the time, so I know when it's the last one. I don't set it much now that I work at home...only if I need to be up for something important!

I can not wake up in early morning even if alarm rings. It may repeat more than once but I won't come out of the bed usually. I can not wake up earlier than my usual time. I can work or read very late in the night but getting up in early morning is impossible.

it depends upon my mood. If I am too tired to wake up and feels so sleepy, I'll snooze. but If I think its too late and need to do something that I need not to be late,..there, I really need to wake up!

most of the time when my alarm rings i'll definitely hit the snooze button. i usually wake up like after 15 minutes after my alarm has gone off hehe.

I normally wake up and snooze the alarm.. but the best part is that I cant stay for long after that action! My mind works after about 15 mins of crawling on the bed and I'm all set.

I normally wake up or don't set an alarm and get right up. If I set an alarm because before I go to bed I don't feel like I will wake up when I am suppose to or need to I will hit the snooze not once but twice and I feel so much worse than if I would of just got up.

I usually wake up around 7-7.30.Its habitual.I always get up around this time on my own.If I need to wake up really early then I set the alarm.

I always have to hit the snooze button in the morning. I am really not a morning person, so it is really hard for me to get up early in the morning. I usually have to hit the snooze button several times before I am finally able to get out of bed. I have to be really careful though, because sometimes I have accidentally turned the alarm off instead of hitting the snooze button on accident, and then I end up falling back asleep and making myself late!

haha.. Same here.. If i ever use my mobile phone for alarm, i will set at least 1 hr earlier than the actual time i have to wake up, so that i can snooze and make myself seem that i have more time to sleep.. haha.. And so by the actual time i have to wake up, i wun feel so sleepy as my sleep has been disturbed.. LOL

I am a morning person but still there are times when I feel more sleepy after the alarm rings. Just put it on snooze and feel like sleeping a few minutes more

I normally wake up by the time my alarm rings, but during non-schooldays (e.g. Summer :D), I have never woken up to my alarm even if I set it to the loudest tone that it could manage... That is also the reason why we are always late for church.. and I feel guilty because it never occured during schooldays unless it's raining. :(

If the alarm rings I just put it on snooze and go back to sleep saying that I can do well with 5 - 10 minutes more of sleep.9 out of 10 times I don't wake up and get out of bed when the alarm rings!

It's easy for me to wake up in the morning. But these past few days I've been so tired I've just hit the snooze button and went back to sleep to sleep a few more minutes. But I normally do wake up at the sound of the alarm.
