Your favorite way to wake up for WBTB

**reckoner** · 02-09-2011 10:58 PM

So, as the title says, which is your favorite method to wake yourself up for WBTB (Can be more than one method)? Setting the alarm doesn't count

.

The only ones I know are (and that's why I'm starting this thread

):
- Drink some water before bed, therefore you will wake up because you have to go to the toilet during the night.
- Tell yourself you're going to wake up that night (affirmation/placebo).

What do you use?

Waking up right after a dream, so I could have a chance to DEILD without knowing that I have to pee.

I don't use an alarm because other people would wake up because of it, and I don't feel like explaining to them why I had to set the alarm for like 4am

I used to set my (award-winningly loud and obnoxious) alarm for 4:00 in the morning just so I could be awake for that great feeling of climbing back into bed and relaxing again. My family wasn't too happy about it.

But yeah, I still use the method that doesn't count ... with a softer, less obnoxious ring.

My alarm is pretty quiet. I use it because I don't think any of the other methods are very reliable, especially when most of the time I need to wake up for a class, i can't risk accidentally sleeping in. I also have somethign called a zen alarm clock that is very quiet and wakes you up in about the most relaxing way possible. It just makes a single dinging noise that sounds like a chime, hitting something against a metal bowl, every few minutes and increases in frequency until its every 5 seconds or so. The only problem is that about half the time it doesn't work. I think they stopped selling them because of this.
