OK, so I'm not the only one with this problem. The thing is that I don't worry for no reason. A lot of times the alarm goes off forever and I don't realize it. Sometimes I accidentally put it on PM instead of AM. And I've also just hit snooze repeatedly or just turned it off in a still asleep state. This has caused me a ton of problems and my roommates hate me because i not only blast 3 alarm clocks but have my computer play a CD every morning from across the room. I don't care though. I've gotten to the most important final in my undergrad courses late and gotten up late before work.

OMG, I forgot about the thing I obsess over *every* night -- my alarm clock. I set three alarms every night: my regular clock/radio, a battery operated alarm and a watch alarm. They are all set for different times. I check each alarm repeatedly before I can go to sleep, and I stress out about it every time. The clock/radio is the worst -- I check am/pm a million times, and I turn the radio on at least three times, to make sure the volume is MAD CRAZY LOUD. I am always terribly afraid of oversleeping, because when I was younger I overslept all the time. I used to have to locate alarm clocks throughout my room so I'd have to get up and find them to shut them off, but I would still oversleep. I'm better now, but I can still hit the snooze button for *hours* without even being aware that I'm doing it. But I am totally obsessed with my alarms. For real, if one of them didn't go off I would probably oversleep and miss work. That would be awful, and it's super important that I not oversleep because it takes me FOREVER to get ready in the morning (I am also one who doesn't like to leave home without makeup/hair/clothes reasonably perfect).
