    This morning. Alarm 1: 8:05, turn off in state of almost complete sleep, Alarm 2: 8:10 same as 1st, alarm 3: 8:15, same as first two, Alarm 4: 8:25, same as others...... Open eyes and look at phone, time: 9:45!

    Jump out of bed pull on clothes and run out the door!!

    This is not an uncommon morning for me unfortunately I'm a terrible morning person.

    I don't set an alarm. I'd wake about 6:45 or so anyway and listen to the radio for half an hour or so before getting up.

    Now I know herself has her phone set for 7:30 so there is a back up plan.

    I can hear my flatmates alarm through two doors, waking me up an hour before i need to get up. :mad:
    Thing is, it doesnt wake him up. I have to knock on his door to wake him up and tell him to turn it off.
    Whats the bloody point in having an alarm if it doesnt wake you up? :mad:

    Because you are his alarm, so just stop waking him up and see how he manages.

    I work nights so I don't have an alarm. I always wake up at some stage during the day 'cause my family make noise around the house etc. If I have an alarm set though, I tend to wake up a lot to check the time, see how long I have left to sleep.

    My alarm gets turned off, few minutes later the phone alarm goes, that gets snoozed, 10 minutes later when it goes off again, I get up. Used to do without the 10 minute phone snooze, but realised I had 10 minutes extra in the mornings that I didn't really need.
