#997 Waking up minutes before your alarm goes off

It's bad enough having to wake up to the sound of an alarm. Unless your alarm is the sound of baby's laughter or a puppy being rescued from a burning building, you're not looking forward to the sound of that alarm. It's a necessary evil that keeps the world running the way it should. What could be more annoying than waking up abruptly to the sound of an alarm? Well, we all know the answer to that. Waking up just minutes before your alarm is slightly annoying.

Sleepily, you look up at a clock that's too bright for your half-closed eyes. Ugh, 7:53. Sure you can sleep for those last seven minutes, but you know what that feels like. You'll close your eyes for what feels like one second and all of the sudden, it's not 7:53:01, its 8:00 and it's time to get up. You could go the other route and try to stay awake, gradually waking up for the next seven minutes. But your eyelids...they're...just...so...heavy. Wake up, it's 8:00 already!


It's just slightly annoying.
