So do wake up to an alarm? If so, is it a proper alarm clock? Your phone? Do you wake up to the radio, or typical BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP? Or are you mildly creative and set certain songs to wake you up? Are you the sort of person who hits snooze, mainly because the button is just..THERE, asking you to press it?

I wake up to How Long by Hinder. Not sure if it's just the place I downloaded it from or if it's the song but it makes me jump every time. :greenie:

My cell phone wakes my up every morning with Sweating Bullets by Megadeth at abooout....5:30? I usually hit snooze. My body clock wakes me at 6, but it's been laggy lately, so the alarm clock is a back-up. :D

I only set an alam at the weekend as I need to get up to go to work, my mum wakes me up on the days in the week to get up for Sixth Form. :p I use my mobile phone as my alarm, I don't have it set to a song, just the little alarm tune thing. I do find myself hitting the snooze button on occasion, but only if I know I have the time to spend those extra few minutes in bed. :}

I use my phone alarm as well. It's set to some random tune that came with my phone. It does a good job of waking me but on sleepier days I snooze so often...my snooze is set for 5 mins, very disruptive but I guess to an extremely sleepy person those 5 minutes seem like heaven.

I always have to change my phone alarm tones because I get used to them and sleep through them after a while. Oddly enough, putting my alarm as vibrate always wakes me up.

For the longest time, my alarm was Damaged by Danity Kane on full volume and it'd make me jump out of the bed because it was so long.

I use my phone and wake up to Six by All That Remains (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0pYWGjECLE).

I can't have a song I like as my alarm, because I end up hating that song.
I just have a random tune on my phone, but sometimes I wake up about a minute before it goes off.

I use my cell phone's generic tone. I wake up around 5:45AM Mon-Fri!

I just use my cell phone, and it's just a loud obnoxious ringing. The more irritating it is the more likely I will be to hurry out of bed.

I use my phone and it beeps like fuck and vibrates too and it's never failed to wake my ass up.

I had a Homer Simpson alarm clock, but it freaked my birds out, so I tossed it. I've never had much trouble getting up at the right time. My internal alarm clock runs smoothly-ish. :p

I usually have my cell-phone play the Stickdeath version of "Turkey in the Straw", a.k.a. "Ice Cream Van" - needless to say, it works pretty well. XD

I have a stupid alarm clock that beeps annoyingly when I have to get up and doesn't include a snooze button. >.>

I might be heading the same way :eek: Any song I've had before as an alarm makes me jump if I hear it on a playlist :mad:

My cellphone always tries to wake me up with the sound of an electric synthesized birdie....

cell phoooooooooooone.

I remember my first roommate freshman year. She had this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikTLuN7Whd8#t=2m11s) as her alarm and I heard it every morning at 6am.

My cell phone wakes me up with a song. It was Tool's Aenima for a long time, but I thought something less dark would be better and changed it xD

YouTube - Boom Boom Satellites - Def (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxF5GJVQxZw)

I really like it. From now on I'm just going to use songs that are smooth but energetic so I wake up, but I'm not all like OH GOD I HATE THIS SOUND SO MUCH I HATE YOU I'M GOING TO GO BACK TO SLEEP.

My alarm goes BEEP BEEP BEEP, and in case that doesn't work; 15 minutes later I hear Maynard yell "SUCK AND SUUUUUCCCKKKKK!!"

And then I'm up :D

I have two alarms. I've started using my phone alarm, and it plays the song by KoRn - Earache In My Eye, it certainly wakes me up. I stupidly put my phone like right next to my pillow though so, yeah, it wakes me up but its soooooo easy to just press 'snooze'. Or I'll use my actual clock's alarm, which is really annoying as it's BURRR BURRR SEVEN AM BURRR BURR SEVEN AM and all I have to do is reach over and hit the big button and it snoozes for 10 whole minutes - ah bliss, my phone's only 5.

I used to have this amazing Barbie alarm when I was younger, It was like "Hi, I'm Barbie, you should wake up as we have so many cute things to do today!" over, and over and over again. My brother's was the best, it was soldier and it played the most amazing tune and to turn it off you hit his helmet, it was legendary, it woke everyone in the house it was so loud.

my phone was on vibrate for some reason this morning, but luckily it still woke me up xD Perhaps better than with my alarm, truth be told!

I use my phone as an alarm! It's just an alarm tone, and it's set for 06:00. I usually press snooze once, and get up at 06:10 - but I'm trying to get out of the habit of snoozing because I usually feel more tired after snoozing then if I just get up straight away at 6am.

Used to use my cell phone. However, now that I need to wake up earlier I use my alarm clock on it's radio setting. It's loud enough to jolt me from sleep after only 5 hours.

This song usually makes me jump up pretty fast to turn it off from my phone:D I also have my radio alarm come on about 20 minutes later incase I fall back to sleep, not often needed though.

I have an alarm on my phone, which is what I use. I haven't used a proper alarm clock in years now.

I have one that makes the sound of chirping birds. Plus it has one of those lights that slowly grow brighter, makes it much nicer to wake up than those :bou::bou::bou::bou:ty loud alarms.

I use my cellphone. I use various songs for alarms, I just have to change them from time to time because after a few months of waking up to the same song my brain starts kind of... ignoring that song. Currently it's Alexi Murdoch - Song For You (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WI_9czYEY4s).
