    Viji,
    Thanks for the immediate fb..
    Me too will not get enough sleep the previous night due to the reason that I might get late the next morning...:)
    I don't rely on alarm too...one time my children changed the alarm tune to a cine song...and I was thinking when it sang..what is this...and only later on came to know that it is an alarm..Big Laugh

    Hi Bhargavi,
    My problem is i set the alarm and wake up way before it rings and keep awake waiting for it to ring.Yesterday i woke up 3-4 times and yet it was not the time to wake up.
    Alarm is really a boon.

    Mindi,
    One more member to our club of 'no-sleep if we are going to get up early the next day...' and waking up DD every 10 mins.
    Now we take up the role of 'alarm clocks' too...isn;t it!Big Laugh

    Devika,
    As you had pointed out..maybe that alarm and tone is to wake you up...be on alert..Big Laugh
    why can't he chose the MS's Suprabhat..instead of your Suprabath every morning..keeping you tensed...poor you..:redface:
    change the alarm tone or keep the alarm tone which would irritate him and make him get up...:idea.Haha..

    AC,
    I also read that alarm clock, which will hide somewhere and we had to literally get up and stop it...
    If I got one..maybe my dd would suggest me to run behind that too..Big Laugh
    You know I get to the point only at the end..:)

    aishu,
    So nice of you ..that you don't want to disturb anybody with your timing .. and also so very nice of your parents to keep the coffee ready at that time..
    You know one thing...I also used to sleep very late during the night..my parents would thing...see my daughter is reading the whole night..
    but they don't know I even take a nap inbetween my studies..Big Laugh
    I also usually keep the alarm 30 min. before the intended time..so that I can have enough time to roll on the bed...:rotfl(if at all I keep an alarm)

    Shanthi,
    In my opinion, the alarm sound must be in such a way that it must be bonkto wake up the 'setter' of the alarm..and not the other people around them..it must be heard by that person only..:idea any takers for this idea!
    I can really understand your plight because my hubby goes through the same..here..
    I can put the alarm off..only before I go to sleep..after that..nothing bothers me..Haha..

    Supriya,
    It is a boon...no doubt about it...but it becomes a disturbance for those who don't need it at that time...right!:)
    So you become the 'alarm' for the alarm clock..:)
    I can understand that because...usually we don't get sleep if we set our mind on the time of our early rise, the next day..
