Set yourself a schedule and make sure you get 8 hours of sleep...it is that simple.

Why the hell are you here? You should be out fighting crime!

I was a butcher for a few years and had to wake up at 5 AM most days. I never got use to waking up that early, no matter how early I went to bed. Maybe it had something to do with chopping flesh at ungodly hours. It sucked.

I'm now on my normal schedule of 2 AM to 8 or 9 AM. That seems to work fine for me.

I used to go to sleep at 3 or 4 every night, but I'd usually wake up before 9 so it was never a problem.

Your whole thread is: "I'm a lazy idiot. What should I do?" The easy answer is stop being a lazy idiot.

If you were partying or whatever all the time that may be a different story (or have trouble getting to sleep) but you just don't seem to go to bed early enough.

What do you do for a living?

yeah andrew, take that fucker to task. How dare he have a fucked up sleep schedual or be a lazzy ass.

:link:

I have the same problem, I do the two alarm thing as well. I have a normal clock next to my bed, and set my cell phone's alarm to go off as well (which I have to get up to turn off). The trick is to not go back into bed when the second alarm goes off. This is usually easier said than done.

Wow, I wish I could be such a hard-ass like you are.

I'm a full-time student and I work 3 or 4 days a week at a grocery store 3 or 4 pm to 12:30 am or so.

I see what you're getting at Tones and I accept.

I was going to suggest that maybe you could try drinking an energy drink a hour or so before bed. I have no idea if it works realy, but it got me awake enough after bed to stay the hell up.

I don't use alarm clocks, I find the sound infuriating and have broke a clock before. If needed I set my phone with an upbeat song (currently Marvel VS Capcom 2. Yeah, and I think that alarms are annoying) and that seems to work just fine.

So he should drink an energy drink before bed so he has no hope of sleeping? Why is that a good idea?

I get up at 6:30 for my new job. It sucks. I used to not get up till 3 or so. :cry:
