I tried everything...
to wake up in the morning, including hiding the alarm clock (a pretty loud one I found) inside the wardrobe. No use, I get up, hit the damn snooze button, and crawl back...
...and then I found out my cell phone has an alarm function, with the same sort of whiney screamin' noise used when someone is calling, so you never know if someone is calling actually, or you should get your rotten carcass under the shower, until you pay attention to it.
When you find out, you're already up. Totally annoyed, but up.
An alarm clock should have no snooze button, a non-removable battery (hello iPhone), no off switch, the most annoying and loud buzz found on this planet, and be pretty much destruction-proof. You will be damned to wake up, or go deaf, no matter how far you kick, or pitch it.
Hmm, perhaps some Heavy-Metal in the morning might work for some people, but what about:
- Russian National Anthem... (hey, it begins pretty loud, my Dad loves it)...
- Luciano Pavarotti... (some 80's recordings were amazing)...
or some incidental sound can also work (from sound FX studios), such as...
- a heart-attacking car horn and screechin' tires (that is sure to wake up anyone)...
- a F-16 supersonic low altitude fly-by...
- a pre-recorded heart beat on the largest set of subwoofers you can find... (that can throw you out of bed by itself...)
- the Matrix shootout... (pick one)...
