Come to my apartment between 6 am and 8:30ish am and you will hear a symphony.
...Of alarms...
A chorus of beeps, static radio, hands slamming the snooze, and tossing and turning serenades us as we all wake up. You put 6 snooze lovin girls together and what do you get? Rachel holdin down the bass with the beep, sarah rockin the harmony with the vibrate, and me belting the vocals with the static radio. Pure symphonic chaos.
I love it. Somehow my mind is trained to my alarm only, how that works i'll never know. I didn't even begin as a snooze pushin person! I used to force myself awake when my alarm went off and now I've spoiled myself with self indulgent snooze pushing! I don't really mind that I push snooze, I have just learned to set my alarm a half hour early. The only problem, I have two helpless people stuck in the same room while the static endlessly plays in 9 minute intervals.
I am sure they ask themselves, "why can't she at least find a good station?" And to that I answer, "Cause Provo is a bunker. No radio stations work on my ghetto alarm clock!!"
I personally find the symphony endearing, and let's be honest...I am never awake to enjoy it at it's fullest (i'm never the first up).
The highlight of the whole thing though, Rachel. Wow. If you want to see a fast reflex you have got to see her hit that snooze button point one seconds after it beeps. It's so impressive, it blows my mind every time!!! World record time I just know it. I realized that she needs to train me. That way I can enjoy my snooze button and keep my staticy radio OUT of our already impressive symphony.
The other symphony in our apartment, the dishwasher. I'm convinced it cycles to some mysterious beat. But that is for another day.
