<p>Set your alarm for 15 minutes before you want to get up and press snooze a couple times. It tricks your body into thinking you’ve gotten more sleep. </p>
<p>Sorry that you have to get up at 6:30. I won’t be getting up til at least 8!</p>
<p>(Too bad I’m getting up at 7:30 M-F right now for my summer class. That blows big time).</p>
<p>
hahaha. I really want one of those now.</p>
<p>I have this really loud obnoxious alarm clock. It scares me half to death and I always wake up thinking that the house is on fire. The adrenaline keeps me awake :P</p>
<p>@ post 19 LOL hahahaha, everyone should have one of those</p>
<p>OR you could go to sleep earlier! Barring that …
… that works really well for me.</p>
<p>Don’t litter your room with ten obnoxious simultaneous alarms. Your roommate will hate you forever. D:</p>
<p>6:30? impossible
I normally sleep at 6:30</p>
<p>9 was the earliest class I had so far in college.</p>
<p>The first week or so, I’d take a shower, grab some breakfast, then go to class. A few weeks in, I was just rolling out of bed at 8:50, throwing on some shorts and a shirt, and then dragging myself to class. Then I’d go grab breakfast, and then take a shower, and then hit up my 11 class.</p>
<p>The getting up early and doing stuff before class will probably go out the window with it being that early.</p>
<p>I would say at least 2 alarm clocks. Make sure you don’t hit the snooze button.</p>
<p>As for this morning, I set my alarm for 8 and ended up waking up at 9.</p>
<p>cellphone alarms with an headphone/earpiece plugged into ur earswould be a good idea i guess…</p>
<p>If possible, put the alarm on the other side of the room.</p>
<p>Once you’re up: strong coffee.</p>
<p>If you get enough sleep the night before, then you’ll eventually get used to waking up to a schedule. Do it enough and you won’t need an alarm to get up at 630am.</p>
<p>For anyone interested in those rumble alarm clocks, I hunted down the name of it and here’s an Amazon search with them.</p>
<p>[Amazon.com:</a> sonic boom alarm clock](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sonic+boom+alarm+clock&x=0&y=0]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sonic+boom+alarm+clock&x=0&y=0)</p>
<p>I love it, my girlfriend hates it. In other words, it wakes both of us up.</p>
<p>Thats amazing RacinReaver. Thanks. I’m gonna need it lol.</p>
<p>Any alarm clock with the words “sonic” and “bomb” in it would probably have me waking up from ****ting myself in terror.</p>
<p>This is one part of going back to school I’m not looking forward to. Currently, I wake up between 10 and 12 each day, but I don’t go to bed until 1 or 2 AM due to my internship. It starts at 1 or 2 in the afternoon and goes until 11:30-midnight most nights. </p>
<p>I find if I HAVE to be up in the morning, I wake up 10-15 minutes before my alarm clock goes off. For classes, that normally isn’t the case. It’s my goal to wake up at 6 this fall to go work out 4 days a week… we’ll see.</p>
<p>One thing I’ve found that’s helped me is I change my ringtone for my alarm about once a month or so. I had a time where I’d sleep right through the alarm because I was used to it. And I normally use the completely annoying pre-sets in the phone!</p>
<p>I wake up at 4a for crew every morning. No coffee, nothing. At first it was hard as all heck, but after a while I’d be happy to wake up–you feel fresher and less crusty in the morning.</p>
<p>Just set an alarm and discipline yourself. After three weeks, it’ll be easy.</p>
