Ever hear your alarm, turn it off, and forget to wake up??

I did that last week. I finally woke up 1/2 hour after my alarm was set, confused.

I must have been pooped.

1. My roommate turned my alarm off when I dormed at college.

I was late for many classes that semester.

3. I bet that ticked you off!

Roommate should have woken you up!

13. Meh, I really hated that class. Besides, he was a nice guy aside from that

2. I hate it when that happens.

That's why I have to set three. :shrug:

[nytemare]

4. Usually I wake up about a minute before my alarm is set

the other day must have been an exception!

5. I am a very sound sleeper, and I tend to do that a lot.

I just got one of those old-fashioned alarm clocks with the bell, and it's really hard to sleep through it.

6. I have one of those Big Bens for when the power goes out

That sucker is loud.

8. I got a Baby Ben

I got it just because it's cute (I love things from the 50s), but now I'm actually using it.

7. It's always in the back of my mind

Esp because, over time, you can become used to your alarm clock and it doesn't wake you up anymore.

I have mine set to the radio. I turn it up REALLY LOUD before I go to sleep.

I have a couple of times, reset the clock after a power outage, and woken up later (but not too late!) because I set the clock for PM not AM. :dunce:

[nytemare]

9. I have done that too!

The pm for am thing! I must not have been paying attention when I set it.

10. i shut the thing off then intentionally oversleep

[Systematic Chaos]

11. Been there, done that

But, that's nowhere near as annoying (or embarassing) as jumping out of bed with a start at 11:40 pm, convinced it's time to wake up for school. I did that once in high school when my usual wake-up time was closer to 7 in the morning. Got dressed and was gathering up my stuff before I realized it wasn't even midnight yet. :)

[nytemare]

12. That has happened to me, too!

Usually if I was dead tired and went to sleep early, my system gets thrown off!

14. i sure did this morning....

shame on me

[datasuspect]

15. i wake my alarm up
