Do you have an internal clock?

Anybody ever wake up just before the alarm goes off? Happens to me all the time, I wake up about 3-5 seconds before the alarm sounds.

I usually fall asleep around 6am and sleep till 12pm. I can't fall asleep at night if im sober :/

Yes, my brain wakes me up at 5:30 on weekdays and 8:00 on the weekends. It never fails.

since this is mainly about sleep, waking up due to a clock ticking inside and you blah blah blah....

anyone ever go to sleep, and wake up every single hour on the dot, all night long? it's happened to me quite a few times... like i fall asleep at 4:30, i'll wake up at 5:30, 6:30, 7:30... ect ect..

yes, and i have finely tuned it to my advantrage.
i used to get up for work at 7 am on the weekends and school on weekdays at 7 am for about four years. my body got used to this and i would end up waking up at 7 am regardless of whether or not i really needed to.
then i went to a differnt school and my schedule changed dramatically. i would wake up at 7 am as usual and not be able to fall back asleep. so i would set my alarm and fall asleep concentrating on what time i really wanted to wake up, how many hours i had to sleep before awakening. eventually i ended up not waking at 7 am, but about 10 minutes before i actaully wanted to awake. i figured it was a psychological tick in the back of my mind while i was sleeping-sorta like falling alseep concentrating on fruit then dreaming about bananas and mangos. so i started taking naps and waking at different times every day, concentrating on the time i wanted to wake and the hours between when i fell asleep.
a few years later,i can fall asleep and about 70% of the time wake about 10 minutes before i want to, whether its 7 am, 3pm or 12 midnight. it works eerily well. especially when i nap during the day. sometimes i dont even use an alarm because i usually awaken before it goes off, and my waking scedule varies evry few days.

my internal clock is stuck on 4:20, 24/7 lol

nah just playin, but yea i actually do on a smaller scale. i wake up at like 7:30 every day and almost everyday i wake up at about 7:20ish, like just before when i normally wake up.

its actually cool how the body works like that, i would have no trouble sleeping till noon every day though if my alarm clock didnt work lol.
