Does your alarm always wake you up?

There are certain mornings where I will only allow myself a couple hours of sleep before I wake up for something important to me. I will sleep later, but since my sleeping schedule is a bit mixed up sometimes I cannot help this. I use my phone alarm to wake me up.This morning I was supposed to wake up at 5am to start getting ready to take the bus at 5:23am to see my boyfriend as he got off work. He called to wake me up, and surprisingly I woke up to his call. The thing is I said to myself, I'm just going to rest for ten more minutes since my alarm is set. But, alas, my alarm did not wake me up. I awoke at 5:05am to sadly call him and report what happened. I thought I had to catch my bus for school at 7:23am since i thought it only came every hour, and that was the bus that allows me to get to school before 9am instead of the bus at 8:30am which gets me there late. But, after I called my love, I realized there was another bus at 7:56am I could catch. The significance of this is that he will get here back home around 7:20am. I just hope he catches our usual bus so that I can spend a little more time with him. A simple mishap, yet it's precious time that I don't get to spend with him =[ Does your alarm always wake you up for your important events of the day?

Heheheh am person can easy wake up special in the morning. I already use 3 alarm HP am setting 3 different time, (just different 5 minute every HP). Guess what? am still can't wake up. And than am asking help, i ask to my BF to calling me 8:00 morning every day unfortunately that is not work too. Finally i get conclusion my body have natural alarm,every night my body need 6 - 8 hour for sleep. If my time for sleep is not enough i can't wake up. The solution is i must counting time before am going to sleep so i will know what time i will wake up or... i must ask my friend beside my room to knock my door room until am wake up.

I have no alarm. I wake up when I have had enough sleep and sometimes it is people outside talking that wakes me up. Cheers!!

I always wake up with the alarm. On most days, I even wake up before the alarm - usually within 30 minutes of it ringing. I'm always anticipating the alarm so I'm always ready for it. It's not good, really, because I lose precious minutes of sleep because of it every day. Even on weekends, when I can sleep in, I will wake up around 7am when my alarm usually rings on weekdays. I guess your body just gets used to getting up at the same time every day and after a while it's easier to wake up to the alarm.
