I have a habit I'd like to kick. I am too much of a sound sleeper and can't manage to get out of bed early enough for anything.
At college hostel,a typical day begins with me finding my friends all dressed up and yelling that I would be late for college. I look at my watch in all my subconsciousness, do a quick evaluation of the situation at hand and figure that I can sleep for 5 more minutes, provided I give up breakfast. I choose the former option in a split second (subconsciously of course) and usually oversleep.
This has even happened on major exam days! To do myself justice, I usually study late at night and into the morning even, because I know I'll never study in the morning for obvious reasons.
Now I'm at home and my habits have gone one notch higher. I get up around 11ish. Where I live that's near most people's lunch time, and that sadly includes my parents. Initially, I tried to explain to them how I liked sitting up late at night, that I slept roughly the same as anybody else, that there's nothing special about getting up in the morning, blah blah but they were just not taking it.
I have tried almost everything to get rid of the habit, both at college and home - loud multiple alarms(I see only the snooze button when they ring), making psychological suggestions and I've even had friends throw water at my face(I just swear at them, again subconsciously).
So how can I get myself outta bed?!
