I've found that if I'm getting up early I have to go to bed early enough the night before, since I'm a champ at sleeping through alarms and falling back to sleep.. I've tried multiple alarms, putting the alarm on the other side of the room, music, etc, but if I'm tired enough I'll just go back to sleep. I usually use a radio alarm now and listen to it for about 10 minutes before I actually get up

Let me make my argument before my badge is taken away!

If you refer back to my post, I CLEARLY said you made a mistake, I never said it was a spelling or grammar mistake. I was simply pointing out the irony of the situation. We cool?

And now the advises thing is bugging me too since it's the subject of the email notification >.<

lol, that happens to me too.

One time when I did it, it kinda backfired. I got up like 2 milliseconds after the alarm turned on and started across the room to turn it off. Little did I know, I had gotten up way to quickly (causing a head rush), and I passed out on the way there landing on my computer chair and knocking my epic can pyramid over.

And then I had a math exam.

That wasn't a good day.

LOL I just realized that your avatar controls the gif in your signature. You're cool in my books now.

And I don't deserve the badge actually...my online username everywhere except MI is "ikantsepll"
I would change it on here too to be consistent but I can't seem to get enough of those points

You will find that this is no longer the case. You're welcome.

edit: thanks for noticing the .gif collaboration. i animated them myself from the sprite sheet which was a pain in the butt.
