Alarm clocks are a necessary evil in life. You can’t live with them, and you can’t live without them.

For college students, alarms are a must in order to make sure our sleep deprived, lazy selves get to class and everywhere else on time.

After hearing that repetitive noise day in and day out, you begin to develop some ill feelings toward your alarm clock. You even dream of ways to destroy and make it disappear forever.

We can’t help that we are grumpy and exhausted. We can’t help thinking crazy thoughts when our alarm clocks go off. It’s a love-hate relationship…majority hate, if we are being completely honest.

1. Is that my alarm or the end of the world?

Is that sound telling me to get up for class or run for my life?

2. How many times can I hit snooze before the clock breaks?

If I keep hitting the same button, will the clock just stop making noise?

3. If only there were more hours in the day just for sleep…

There needs to be scheduled nap times during the day for everyone. Then, I won’t want to throw my alarm clock against the wall.

4. What if I just buried the clock under a lot of pillows and blankets?

Maybe the sound will be softer if I bury the clock…

5. Whoever invented alarm clocks is INSANE.

Why did you have to invent this device? WHY?

6. This sound is worse than nails on a chalkboard.

This noise makes nails on a chalkboard sound wonderful.

7. I’m going to hear this sound in my SLEEP.

I can’t sleep at night. I hear my alarm even when it’s quiet.

8. Why do I always jump when it goes off?

I pop up like a pop tart in a toaster when I hear that noise.

9. Such an innocent noise is now associated with EVIL.

I cringe at that sound.

10. I’m going to have a heart attack from this stupid thing one day.

Keep an ambulance nearby.

11. What if I hit the clock over and over? The sound would magically stop forever.

Where is my hammer?

12. I dream of setting this gosh awful contraption on fire.

LIGHT IT UP.

13. It’s time to be honest with myself, I will forever need and loathe my alarm clock.

It’s the ugly truth. I will always need an alarm clock.
