<p>I tumble out the bed. A 4 feet fall is enough to wake me up. Then I go to school and go straight back to sleep</p>
<p>you could set up a bunch of alarm clocks, further and further away from the bed? (so you have to get up to close it?)</p>
<p>My cats wake me up B-) </p>
<p>I am homeschooled, and I am a night owl - however, on the day I do have an outside class, I usually have to set my alarm for every 15 minutes to ensure I won’t be late. If I’ve only gotten a few hours of sleep, I’ll usually sleep though the first two alarms and skip a part of the morning routine to make up for the lost time</p>
<p>Wow I feel like I’m the only person my age that I know of who doesn’t have a problem getting out of bed. I just set an alarm clock with an annoying beeping sound on a table away from my bed. I hate the noise it makes and have to get out of my bed to turn it off, so there’s no point in going back to sleep after I get up.</p>
<p>The only way I can wake up in the morning is if something I ordered online arrived. The UPS guy know me by my bedhead.</p>
<p>First my mother comes in playing a guitar and singing, around 7. Second, my sister comes in plays a kazoo as loud as she can around 7:10. If that doesn’t work, my dad comes in playing a drum and cymbals around 7:20. I might start to stir by then, in which case my mother finishes the job by shouting, “Time to get up sweetie!!! You’re future won’t wait!!!”</p>
<p>(This is complete hogwash, by the way. Just wanted to see how interesting I could get. :))) </p>
I am also a homeschooled night owl, but I don’t get how your parents let you sleep in! I usually set my alarm for around 6:45-7:00,even when I go to bed at 12… (I am trying to break the habit of going to bed so late) @iamnotironman - My alarm clock-WITH A SUPER ANNOYING BEEPING NOISE- is also at the other side of my room, so I have to get up and walk across the room to get it. I also don’t really mind waking up, it is just a required part of the day! I just cannot stand sleeping in and wasting the day away!
P.S. The longest I have slept in was today… I slept in until 9:40… And went to bed at 2:00 A.M…
My alarm is usually set to 5:30 during the school year (earlier if I have homework to finish). Over break is completely different. I get up around 9:00 and take naps throughout the day (if I have nothing to do).
I’ve never struggled to wake up and get up when my alarm goes off. I’m proud to say that I’ve never hit the snooze button!
On school nights, I go to sleep around 12pm and wake up at 6:50. (
BREAKS, however, are a whole different story lol. I’m a night-owl too, so I go to bed at around 2 am and wake up at 11:00am.
I’d try to fix it, but I can’t go to sleep early because I woke up so late, and I can’t wake up early because I slept so late.
It’s a vicious cycle.
Instead of using an alarm my mother just turns on the lights in my bedroom at 6 AM, which wakes me up since I cannot sleep too well with the lights on. During break I typically wake up whenever, so basically anywhere from 8-11 depending on if I took any naps during the day and what time I went to sleep that night.
My alarm is set to go off at 4:30 AM and I leave at 5:40 AM. After eating, showering, etc., I take the bus to get to my school which is about 17 miles away from where I live.
Top that.
